Sickle cell anemia is an autosomal recessive inherited disorder that affects red blood cells. The sickle cell gene inherited form both parents causes the production of structurally abnormal hemoglobin, clinical known as hemoglobin S, which cluster together, causing red blood cells to become rigid and develop a crescent shape. These sickled cells become trapped in small blood vessel and block them, reducing blood and oxygen flow in many parts of the body, and leading to tissue and organ damage.…

Naturally, we have gone to the doctors when we are feeling sick, then come out with a prescription for an antibiotic. But have you ever question that you should be taking that antibiotic. antibiotics are one of the most overly prescribed medications in the United States. They may actually cause more harm than good. So what exactly are antibiotics, how can they be helpful when used correctly, but at the same time cause much harm to us by creating antibiotic resistance. So antibiotics are…

marcescens, Proteus mirabilis, Shewanella putrefaciens, Enterobacter aerogenes, Salmonella typhi, Citrobacter freundii, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus megaterium, Bacillus cereus etc and anaerobes includes Clostridium perfringens, Streptococcus species, Bacteroides species(). R.S. Baylock 2001 studied bacterial…

of how the discovery of the CRISPR system was not done by one person but was created by many people; created a new discovery that would reduce the time and work needed to edit genomic DNA. The discovery came from the protein Cas9 found in the Streptococcus bacteria CRISPR immune system that works in some way like scissors. The protein attacks the DNA viruses and then cuts it…

Introduction BOOST Juice founded by Jannie Allis in 2000, she was on adventurous trip to US in year 1999 where she observed that demand of juice and smoothie growing consecutively. When she came back to Australia she started studying about the fast food choices and came to a result that the local market needs a healthy fast food options and with the different concept of retailing in her mind includes customer experience construct on “love life” thinking. With all these different concepts in her…

Meningitis is a bacteria or infection that causes the meninges to swell. Meninges are three membranes that are call; the Dura mater, Arachnoid, and Pia mater. These membrane layers are to protect and cover the brain and spinal cord. The meningitis infection or bacteria would seek through the bloodstream to the brain causing inflammation. Meningitis can also occur by ear infection and sinus infection. Meningitis can affect in all different types of ages, but can most commonly affect one certain…

Introduction The Gram stain is a valuable tool to microbiologists in identifying the cell well composition of prokaryotic species. The underlying process revolves around a series of chemical dyes, and their propensity to bind to peptidoglycan polymers in the cell wall. The results allow scientists to infer properties about the outer coating of an organism and is often the first step in identifying an unknown species. For the purpose of our experiment, the results of the Gram stain will be as…

Readiness for Delivery Prenatal medical records and records of outpatient care, including the birth plan, are transported to the planned delivery site usually by the 36th week, with subsequent updates sent weekly. The provider should become familiar with the delivery site to meet staff, check for changes to equipment and policies, and review the escalation policy as well as resources available for prompt bedside evaluation, diagnosis, and interven-tions. One way to keep up to date with delivery…

These old staining techniques brought about issues because they stained both the tissue and the cells so it was hard to differentiate between the two. Christian Gram is the inventor of the gram stain and found this technique when he was looking at Streptococcus pneumoniae in the lung tissue of people and animals (1). When working with these tissues, he found that this bacterium would take up a specific stain and leave the rest of the tissue decolorized There is an extra step that has been added,…

the DNA or RNA of the pathogen [6]. The activity of the guide RNA, which can bind specifically to a sequence of nucleic acids and target the Cas9 nuclease activity, allows the CRISPR-Cas9 technique to be used to edit the genome of bacteria like Streptococcus thermophilus, Escherichia coli, and also of mammalian cells in a specific way. This way, if we use different guide RNAs, we can target specific regions of the genome and, as a result, target the nuclease activity of Cas9 to edit a desired…
