Microbiology UNKNOWN LAB REPORT Kateryna Petrakova INTRODUCTION Microorganisms cause a great amount of diseases. For healthcare providers it is very important to be aware of what organisms are pathogenic and cause a disease and‚ therefore‚ to find an appropriate treatment. Different microorganisms require various environments in order to replicate and to become dangerous for a person’s health. An integral part of any medical treatment is to be able to recognize and

I- Abstract: Urinary tract infections are a serious health problem affecting millions of people each year. Infections of the urinary tract are the second most common type of infection in the body. Women are especially prone to UTIs for reasons that are not yet well understood. One woman in five develops a UTI during her lifetime. UTIs in men are not as common as in women but can be very serious when they do occur. This research project shows that we can produce a herbal medicine out of Bignay

The isolated bacteria were named initially as Bacillus bifidus communis‚ which was later renamed to the genus Bifidobacterium. He observed that Bifidobacteria is the dominant in the gut microflora of breast fed infants and also he observed the clinical advantages in using Bifidobacteria in treating infant diarrhoea. Alfred Nissle‚ German professor‚ during an outbreak of shigellosis in 1917‚ isolated a strain of Escherichia coli from faeces of a soldier who was not infected by the disease

The Effects of Antibiotics on Bacterial Growth Biology II 1996 Bacteria are the most common and ancient microorganisms on earth. Most bacteria are microscopic‚ measuring 1 micron in length. However‚ colonies of bacteria grown in a laboratory petri dish can be seen with the unaided eye. There are many divisions and classifications of bacteria that assist in identifying them. The first two types of bacteria are archaebacteria and eubacteria. Both groups have common ancestors dating to more
