A pathogen is a tiny non-visible disease causing microorganism such as Bacteria‚ Virus and Fungus. Both the scientific name and common name for Actinomycosis is Actinomycosis. The pathogens that cause Actinomycosis are from a species of Actinomyces‚ most commonly known as Actinomyces Israelii and Actinomyces Gerencseriae. The species of Actinomyces are an Actinobacteria class of Bacteria. The pathogens are endogenous‚ meaning the bacteria originate from inside the body‚ making them not liable to

the reasons for why I wanted to get involved in this kind of scientific work. Part of my interest in microbes eventually led to me interning at a lab at my local university. Instead of working on viruses and acne‚ I worked with bacteria and antibiotic resistance. Still learning about the itty bitty squishy parts of life and their weird chemicals is pretty cool. In fact‚ I wrote and presented a poster at a conference about how bacteria communicate with each other through chemical signals that they make

Chenoweth and Stephan’s arguments and research show that non violent campaigns are more successful than violent campaigns against violent political regimes. Though violent protests can show to be successful and they do get the point across though in a very different way‚ non violent protests I will have to agree‚ are the best and most efficient way to go about combating a violent opposition. With cases such as Dr. Martin Luther King‚ and Ghandi being two of the most noted cases. (not to say that

When harmful bacteria infects the body‚ people take antibiotics in order to suppress bacteria. Different antibiotics have different ways they suppress bacteria‚ and the efficacy of antibiotics depends on the structure of the bacteria which they are targeting. The specific bacteria being studies in this experiment is E Coli and Enterococcus. E Coli is a bacteria which may

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

S. aureus is known as one of the most resistant bacterium to multiple antibiotics and considered the most pathogenic. Everyone is susceptible to S. aureus with one way of transmission being from foods such as chicken‚ eggs‚ meat‚ and tuna which can all cause food poisoning. Another way of transmitting the disease would be from

Name one disease/condition that could be caused by your organism‚ at least two of its symptoms and what treatment is most often utilized (Antibiotics must be named). (Infection does not count‚ you must be more specific). Diseases can be human or animal. If no disease is found‚ list and describe one industrial use. Industrial use should include any products it being used to make/produce and if the organism is genetically altered for that use. Your answer to this question should be in complete sentences

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

Introduction Botulism is a serious but rare infection that is caused by a bacterial poison (toxin). It usually affects babies who are 6 months of age or younger. What are the causes? This condition is caused by a toxin that is produced by the Clostridium botulinum bacteria. The toxin develops when a baby swallows (ingests) these bacteria‚ which then settle in the gut and grow. These bacteria often come from dust and soil. What increases the risk? This condition is more likely to develop in infants
