Copper has been recognized by the EPA as the first solid surface registered as an antimicrobial. Hand decontamination is crucial in the prevention of HCAIs. Another method that will be used to control Hospital Acquired Infections is the implementation of hand-washing stations throughout the facility. In every room‚ motion sensor faucets

Are you noticing that your teeth appear longer than usual‚ when you look in the mirror? Or have you been experiencing sensitivity to hot and cold? Most likely‚ your gums have receded and some of the tooth’s root is visible. This can be caused by a number of factors‚ but because gums tissue cannot regrow itself‚ the only remedy is gum graft surgery. However‚ people often avoid treatment because they fear gum graft pain. Reasons for Recession Heavy tartar buildup and gum disease are culprits that

CHAPTER I THE RESEARCH PROBLEM BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY Now days‚ exporting is hard in the Philippines hence the country is not that good in means of transportation because of the gap between the islands and provinces; and not all places have good roads. This kind of problem could take hours for the exporters to export their goods to other places like the market‚ malls‚ and other cities along the country. And due to that kind of problem may lead to poor source of income for the exporters

Blaser’s work in the Human Microbiome Program has produced evidence that a child’s gut bacteria is less resilient than presumed to be. During early life‚ a child’s microbiome may grow‚ transform‚ and diversify according to its environment.3 If an antimicrobial agent meant to destroy all bacteria is administered to a child‚ then the bacteria‚ with which the child has a mutually beneficial relationship‚ may become nearly deplete‚ never to reach full development.3 This event poses a great threat to children

CHAPTER 43: IMMUNE SYSTEM 1. List the two lines of nonspecific defense mechanisms with examples of each. • External defense‚ which includes the skin and mucous membranes in the body. • Internal defense which includes phagocytic cells and antimicrobial proteins. 2. What is meant by specific defense? Defense mechanisms are said to be specific because depending on which one they focus on one specific part of the body or a specific type of pathogen. 3. Give examples of “barrier defense

tellurite (K2TeO3) inhibits the growth of gram-negative bacteria and most of the upper respiratory tract normal flora. Oxyanions of tellurium‚ like tellurite (TeO32-)‚ are highly toxic for most eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms. Known for its antimicrobial properties‚ potassium tellurite has been used in selective media for the isolation of a number of naturally tellurite-resistant bacterial species such as the C. diphtheriae. These tellurite-resistant bacteria reduce tellurite to its elemental less
