The Board suggests that overuse of antibiotics by doctors and farmers along with insufficient research to create new antibiotics and vaccines has contributed to the amount of deaths from antibiotic resistant diseases. The Board’s audience consists of those who are concerned about antibiotic resistant disease or about health in general. The board uses a serious tone to cause people to realize that antibiotic resistant diseases are an

The use of plant extract for medical treatments is enjoying great popularity since 1990s when people realized that the effective life span of antibiotic is limited and over prescription and misuse of traditional antibiotics are causing microbial resistance.

In this lab report‚ we discover the most effective disinfectant that would work best in killing the harmful bacterial strain‚ Bacillus subtilis.

Just like potato chips‚ silly putty‚ and corn flakes‚ penicillin was an accident. Many people contributed to the bringing about of penicillin. The discovery of penicillin‚ the history of it are two very important subjects on how it became what it is today. First of all‚ penicillin was discovered by a bacteriologist Alexander Fleming. This scientist discovered it by accident. He went away for a while and when he came back a mold was covering all his petri dishes. Fleming did some testing with a particular

This blunder is aided by the accessibility when it comes to antibiotic purchase. What is Antibiotic Resistance? Antibiotic resistance is a form of drug resistance which occurs when a particular

She was admitted to the hospital and was put on a ventilator‚ but the ventilator contained another kind of superbug that was even worse than the MRSA that she had been admitted for. While she was given various antibiotics‚ they never worked for long and the situation looked very bad for Addie. Her mother was told to expect the worst. Bacteria have

Most genetically engineered plant foods have this antibiotic resistance gene. The gene in these plants primarily have two negative effects. Eating these plants/foods that have this gene will lower the effectiveness of antibotics to fight disease when you are taking antibiotics with meals. "Antibiotic-resistance genes produce

Coccus is a term used to describe a type of morphology that helps us distinguish different kinds of bacteria. The cell’s morphology is only one of the many ways we can differentiate the different species. Looking at these bacterium underneath the microscope is an important step to determine which kind of species it is. All cocci bacteria are not gram positive‚ but this lab will examine only this kind because of their influence in human health. Staphylococcus Aureus is a gram-positive coccus bacterium

This was also proven to be a danger for humans as widespread use of antibiotics results in breading super pathogens (drug resistant bacteria).Besides antibiotics there are also other toxic substances which are used to feed the animals on these farms. These toxins may be contaminated in animal tissues and

was a new kind of medicine which is known as antibiotics. Antibiotics is a variety of substances that control the growth or kill bacteria. Since bacteria is evolving rapidly and resisting antibiotics due to the overuse of the medicine‚ reducing the need and use would help slow down the bacteria from evolving. There are many things that can be done to help slow down the resistance of antibiotics. If the trend of this resistance keeps growing antibiotics wont be able to help the human body from a bacterial
