How Does Bacteria Gain Antibiotic Resistance? Antibiotic resistance can only occur when the bacteria changes in some way that reduces the effectiveness of drugs or chemicals designed to cure or prevent infections from further expanding in the body. With resistance, that’s exactly what these forms of bacteria are doing, multiplying and spreading or infecting others. The bacteria’s main goal is to survive and multiply in the environment they were introduced to so introducing an antibiotic will…

The fenicol groups of antibiotics are one of the generally utilized medications which are wanted to treat sicknesses relating to respiratory and digestive systems. These days, these gatherings of antibiotics are utilized as a part of veterinary prescription adequately. Fenicol gathering of anti-microbials incorporates a few regularly utilized medications like chloramphenicol and florfenicol. As of late, utilization of florfenicol has been expanded on account of its wellbeing in nature when…

Nail Fungus - Can Nail Fungus Be Eradicated Permanently? Nail fungus is a long-established quandary. The fungus develops in our nail beds, the skin straight beneath our nails. The signs of nail fungus include discolored nails, brittle or crumbly nails,nails growing irregularly,thickened nails and agony in the affected finger or toe. Considering the fact that nail fungus shouldn't be a infrequent ailment, many people have already shriveled it with out them knowing it. Simplest when it has…

The cause of Tourette Syndrome is currently unknown. Many doctors are working to find a cause (“Tourette”). There are two hypothetical causes that are tied to Tourette Syndrome. One of the two main hypothetical causes would be Strep Infections. Strep Infections are a major key to Tourette Syndrome both good and bad. Strep Infections are a bacteria which instigate a lack of organelles for the body to stay healthy. If the patient has OCD, symptoms or tics can worsen, which means it could be…

Introduction The drugs used in this experiment are Chloramphenicol and rifampicin. Both of these drugs are antibiotics however their methods of action are quite different. These drugs have different effects on the bacteria they are being used against. Rifampicin is a bactericidal drug and chloramphenicol is bacteriostatic. Bactericidal drugs interfere with the bacteria to such an extent that the bacteria die. They not only prevent new cells from growing but also cause a crucial aspect of the…

Salmonellosis is a type of infectious disease that is caused by a bacteria of the Salmonella genus, which is named after its discoverer, a scientist called Dr. Salmon. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Salmonellosis is very common and causes about 1.2 million cases in the United States each year. Although the disease seems to be common and harmless, it could also be deadly, in some severe cases, when the bacteria spreads from the host’s intestines to the bloodstream to…

Overview Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus is a pathogen that can cause a wide range of diseases in humans. It is a type of staph bacteria that’s immune to most antibiotics. MRSA is unique form of staph because certain antibiotics can’t treat it. MRSA becomes resistant to antibiotics if given enough time. MRSA bacteria is likely to grow when antibiotics are used too much or not properly. History MRSA was first identified in 1961 by British scientists. By the 1970s, MRSA had spread all…

Introduction The infection at the wound site is a severe kind of problem and it delays regeneration of epidermis and dermis in the wound and slows wound closure. Due to the secretion of microbial enzymes by wound pathogens, a variety of extracellular matrix proteins were degraded. Synthetic antimicrobial therapy used in the wound management and eradication of pathogens. However, it has many shortcomings such as anti-microbial resistance, cyto-toxicity against host tissue and absence of…

Salmonella infection in food is the one of the major causes of foodborne illnesses including fever, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and nausea. Thus, early detection of Salmonella contamination is important for our healthy life. Conventional detection methods for the food contamination have limitations in sensitivity and rapidity, thus the early phase detection has been difficult. Herein, we developed a bioelectronic nose using a carbon nanotube (CNT) field-effect transistor (FET) functionalized with…

1. One of the main topics could be the drug resistance mechanisms of bacteria. 2. First, spontaneous mutation which changes the drug target or upregulate drug efflux. Second, Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) that the genes in bacteria acquire to become resistant. HGT can cause multidrug resistance in a genetic event which make the bacteria become resistance. Third, the ability of bacteria that they can form biofilm while they are being infected. The bacteria provide themselves protection to…
