Death” is the name that was given to a disease called the bubonic plague which was widespread during fourteenth century. The plague according to modern biomedical science was a severe infection of the lymphatic system caused by Pasteurella petis‚ a bacillus carried principally by fleas that thrive on animals‚ particularly rodents such as rats. At the beginning of the outbreak‚ the cause of the plague was attributed to bad air‚ some kind of generalized pestilential miasma (Patel‚ 2011). The Black Plague

The Real Deal on GM Food Labeling The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) began food labeling in the United States in 1938. It was an initial effort to protect public health through the transparency in food ingredients and their nutritional value. Today‚ with the emergence of genetically modified organisms (GMO) as food‚ another issue regarding labeling to champion consumer choice between GM and non-GM foods has been raised. But experiences of countries that adopted mandatory GMO labeling

MILK FABRIC ABSTRACT: The milk fabric is new born fabric. The milk protein fabric moistens skin and it is healthy and bacteriostatic - it is the perfect material to produce underwear and socks‚ pants‚ long-sleeve T’s and jackets also. The important ingredients of milk protein fiber are milk casein proteins‚ which can nourish and lubricate the skin. The milk protein contains the natural humectant factor‚ which can capture the moisture and maintain skin’s moisture to make the skin tender and smooth

Experiment 9: Growth curve of Serratia marcescens Abstract Bacteria grows by binary fission. The aim of this experiment is to follow the growth of Serratia marcescens in nutrient broth at 37oCby recording the changes in turbidity (cloudiness) by measuring the absorbance of visible light (600 nm) and also to prove that there is an increase in the cell number and not just in mass during the growth. In the experiment we measure the full growth curve of Serratia marcescens by measuring the absorbance

bacterium was gram-negative bacilli that did not utilize citrate‚ and the ability to hydrolyze urea using urease. These results indicate that the identity of unknown number 34 is Proteus mirabilis. Introduction Proteus mirabilis is a gram-negative bacillus bacterium. It is found naturally in the human gut flora. However‚ if P. mirabilis comes into contact with the urinary tract‚ urinary tract infections can result. Urinary tract infections caused by P. mirabilis are correlated
