    drug-susceptible tuberculosis is improperly or incompletely treated. This occurs when a physician does not prescribe proper treatment regimens or when a patient is unable to adhere to therapy. Improper treatment allows individual TB bacilli that have natural resistance to a drug to multiply.” When a patient has no signs or symptoms of latent tuberculosis‚ the consequences may be life threatening‚ not only to the patient‚ but also to all the people that are around

    factors affect the resistance of a conductor‚ and the mathematical relationship that exists between these variables. Hypothesis Copper wires would be a better conductor than nichrome wires because it would yield less resistance when they have same cross-sectional area‚ length and temperature. Resistance would be increased when length wires increased. Resistance would be increased when cross-sectional area of wires decreased. Resistivity of wires is a factor of affecting the resistance. Background information

    Factors affecting the resistance of a wire Introduction: Resistance is a force‚ which opposes the flow of an electric current around a circuit. Resistance is measured in Ohms. George Ohm discovered that a circuit sometimes resists the flow of electricity. He called this ’RESISTANCE.’ He even came up with a rule for working out the resistance of a circuit‚ which was: R= V ÷ I V- Volts I- Current R- Resistance Ohms law says the more resistance means more energy is needed for the current to

    low toxicity. Silver sulfadiazine has in vitro activity against many burn wound pathogens including Pseudomonas aeruginosa‚ Staphylococcus aureus‚ Escherichia coli‚ Klebsiella‚ Proterus‚ Enterobacteriaceae and Candida albicans. The frequency of resistance development with silver sulfadiazine is considerably lower than with other antimicrobials. So in the majority of burn patients the drug of preference for prophylaxis is silver sulfadiazine

    Aim: To investigate the factors that affect the resistance in a conductor. The main factors that affect the resistance in a conductor are: · Length · Temperature · Cross sectional area · Material · Magnetism The factor that we are going to change is the cross sectional area. Hypothesis: I think that the higher the cross sectional area‚ the lower the resistance in the conductor will be. This is because the Resistance in a metal conductor happens because as the electrons move through the material

    Peaceful resistance‚ as with all forms of protest‚ have both positive and negative effects on America’s concept of a “free society” but upon inspection‚ one can see that in time‚ it is positive. Forms of peaceful resistance can range from a conscientious objection to a law in the form of protesting‚ to simply writing a representative to express one’s opinion on a law. Each of these are opportunities for citizens to exhibit their constitutional rights to organize‚ free speech‚ and perform their civic

    Antibacterial action of the irrigants against Enterococcus faecalis in the root canal The overall percentage reduction of E. faecalis inside the root canal after biomechanical procedures was presented in table1. All the irrigants significantly reduced bacteria in comparison with positive control group (P< 0.01). The average reduction of bacteria in the presence of E.galbie did not have any significant difference with 2.5% NaOCl‚ CHX 2%‚ CHX 0.2% and M.communis L. (P > 0.05). The average reduction
