Effect of different cleaning products of the growth of K12 strain Escherichia Coli? Which household cleaning product (hydrogen peroxide, Pine-sol, Clorox Bleach, Mr Clean antibacterial liquid cleaner) is the best inhibitor of K12 Escherichia coli (E. coli) growth? The manipulated variable was the cleaning product or disinfectant on used of the Whatman antibiotic assay paper disc. The dependent variable is the zone of inhibition of the prokaryotic bacteria E. coli. In topic one IB requires that…
Proteus Mirabilis Proteus mirabilis is defined by the slide share website as a disease caused by microbial invasion of the genitourinary track that extends from the renal cortex of the kidney to the urethral meatus. Proteus mirabilis can be laboratory diagnosed by the specimen collection, transported and storage and laboratory methods, but the laboratory methods that would be focused on is specimen collection. It is often the first determine diagnosis and treatment which would give a more…
Microbiology laboratory is a branch of clinical laboratory. The main purpose of the microbiology laboratory is work to discover the reasons and causes of the diseases and treatment. Microbiology laboratory is one of important laboratory in clinical laboratory, because interested in studying infectious diseases. There are four type of microorganisms that causes infectious disease are bacteria, parasites, fungi and viruses. Microbiology laboratory has many sections and each section do many types…
life-threatening and trivial infections. Their erroneous use increases the risk of bacterial drug resistance (1). Medications administered inappropriately not only leads to wastage of resources but also carries potential serious and life-threatening adverse effects for the users (2). Resistance to antimicrobial drugs by the microorganism is increasing due to improper use of antibiotics. Microbial resistance is one of the major issues of the health worldwide (3). Using of antimicrobials and the…
CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 TUBERCULOSIS Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by the bacillus Mycobacterium tuberculosis. TB is a major global health problem and it ranks alongside Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) as a leading cause of death worldwide.

GENTAMICIN The drug selected for study is Gentamicin. Gentamicin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic composed of a mixture of related Gentamicin components and fractions and is used to treat many types of bacterial infections, particularly those caused by Gram-negative organisms. Isolation and Preliminary studies 2 demonstrated that it is a mixture of basic, water soluble antibiotic containing the aminocyclitol 2-deoxystreptamine and two additional amino sugars. Chromatographic separation of…
HAPTER ONE 1.0 Introduction 1.1Background information Disinfection describes a process that eliminates many or all pathogenic microorganisms, except bacterial spores or inanimate objects. In health-care setting, objects are usually disinfected by liquid chemicals or wet pasteurization.(Guideline for Disinfection and Sterilization in Healthcare Facilities,2008). Disinfection in hospitals especially in medical training hospitals is of significant concern for both the medical professionals and the…
of nosocomial infection in ICUs is much greater than in the general in-patient population of hospital. The rates and types of hospital acquired infection, the distribution of microorganism that cause the infection and the pattern of antimicrobial resistance vary across geographic regions in different hospitals also in different ICUs of the same hospital. Nosocomial infections affect patient morbidity and mortality. Health care works especially those with poor hand hygiene…
Despite other observations were normal, this could escalate to an upper urinary tract infection if not treated properly.6 Furthermore, her previous UTI episode was treated with trimethoprim and may potentially lead to an increased risk of trimethoprim resistance.12 Therefore, ordering urine culture and microscopy in this case is a reasonable investigation not only to ascertain the diagnosis but also to ensure sensitivity of…
