Seher kaygusuz Unit 39 p1 Cause of infection Normal flora; flora is a bacteria which is found in or on our bodies on a semi-permanent basis without causing disease. There are good and bad sides for normal flora, the good side produces vitamins, human body cannot produce such as vitamin B12. The bad side – normal floral can cause disease if the floral escapes from its normal location and this may effect the bladder and can cause infections. Furthermore, Normal flora can also been found in nose

Gfgghghkgk gkghklgnko giognkghmkl gfkbklg;klgbklklbnklgl One of the greatest concerns for the water consumers with respect to the quality of drinking water is contamination with pathogenic microorganisms. Certain microorganisms, including various bacteria, viruses, and parasites, are well-known water contaminants, of which several may lead to waterborne disease and epidemics. The aim of the present study the prevalence of bacterial contaminants from lake water in and around Ranipet, Vellore District and

year, are losing their ability to thwart disease. This means that, if the present trend continues, humanity will once again find itself facing the kinds of apocalyptic epidemics that have been man’s curse for all but the last century of history. Bacteria of many ilk, from the relatively innocuous streptococci that give most people a sore throat and a bit of fever, through the often lethal and fast-propagating tuberculosis and e.choli, are becoming resistant to antibiotic treatment. And while many

Did this article catch my interest, yes, because it’s talking about how bigger areas of where people live and economies growth of industries and pollution rates are more affected by the bacteria and the difference in the cell biology growth process. Also the difference between the growth processes in one land verses another. This article did hold my interest throughout reading it to the end. I had a hard time at first understanding what they were doing and how. I don’t feel like they explained how

tests. Each test done will help to eliminate other bacteria. Once a scientist knows the species, the right steps can be taken to help out people if they get contaminated with the bacteria. When I received my unknown bacteria, I started of doing a Gram Stain. This test revealed to me that I had a Gram negative bacilli in a random arrangement. This step is very important to figure out what type of family the bacteria belongs to. Gram negative bacteria have a thin peptidoglycan layer and a waxy outer

Hypothesis The tested hypothesis for this lab stated that the disease that infected Pond 22 and is now dispersing to Pond 23 has a bacterial nature. Methods Many different scientific procedures were performed in order to either retain or reject the hypothesis for this experiment. First, the water samples obtained from Pond 22 (Disease-struck) and Pond 16 (Healthy) were serially diluted. As a result of the serial dilution process, the two pure samples were brought to a concentration of 10-4. Next

contaminated by bacteria, viruses or protozoa are typhoid and cholera, gastroenteritis, paratyphoid fever, and infectious hepatitis. These kinds of diseases are caused by microbiological parameter. One of the microbiological parameter is the coliform bacteria. Coliforms may be associated with the sources of pathogens contaminating water. It is a broad class of bacteria found in our environment, including the faeces of man and other warm-blooded animals. The presence of coliform bacteria in drinking
