Approach Considerations Treatment decisions in children with pneumonia are dictated based on the likely etiology of the infectious organism and the age and clinical status of the patient. Antibiotic administration must be targeted to the likely organism‚ bearing in mind the age of the patient‚ the history of exposure‚ the possibility of resistance (which may vary‚ depending on local resistance patterns)‚ and other pertinent history (see Etiology and Clinical Presentation). After initiating therapy

It can restrict the growth of Listeria bacteria and Escherichia coli in food products thereby can potentiate their shelf life. In one of the studies‚ the effect of cinnamon was studied against numerous organisms such as fungus like Aspergillus flavus‚ yeast species such as Candida lipolytica‚ Mucor plumbeus and Staphylococcus aureus. Its combination along with clove oil has been impressive and effective against A. flavus. The cinnamon oil has antimicrobial action in the range 10-150 μg

DOLP- Fungi General Structure and Function: For many years‚ fungi were classified into the plantae kingdom because the two kingdoms seemed to be alike; but now‚ we know that they are all too different. In fact‚ the fungi kingdom is more closely related to the animalia kingdom. Some of the only notable similarities between the fungi and plantae kingdoms are that they are both made of eukaryotic cells‚ both immobile‚ both contain cell walls (although made of different material)‚ and both evolved

Structure Coir fibres are found between the hard‚ internal shell and the outer coat of a coconut. The individual fibre cells are narrow and hollow‚ with thick walls made of cellulose. They are pale when immature but later become hardened and yellowed as a layer of lignin is deposited on their walls. There are two varieties of coir. Brown coir is harvested from fully ripened coconuts. It is thick‚ strong and has high abrasion resistance. It is typically used in mats‚ brushes and sacking. Mature brown
