Observation of Bacteria on Chicken and Handrail and the Effect of GermX® and Alcohol on Them. Sujit Bhimireddy‚ Daryl Onwuchuruba‚ Naveen Sood‚ and Manasa Tripuraneni Biology 106 Abstract Bacteria are found everywhere on this planet. This experiment is aimed at observing some of the bacteria that surround us in places that we use everyday. We will look at bacteria found on a piece of chicken and bacteria found on a handrail. The effectiveness of antibacterial substances such as GermX® and

TAQ1 Definition of Pathogen and research into the main features of bacteria‚ protozoa‚ fungi and viruses. Pathogens‚ or infectious agents‚ are microorganisms that cause disease or illness to their host. There are divided into four groups; bacteria‚ protozoa‚ fungi and viruses. The term pathogen most often describes an organism that disrupts the normal physiology of a plant or animal. In identifying a pathogen it is important to determine the properties that ‘contribute to its infectious

Yersinia pestis bacteria may form different types of the plague; bubonic‚ septicemic‚ and pneumonic. The bubonic plague is the most common form of yersinia pestis that attacks and infects the lymphatic system of the organisms‚ once resulting to one-third to one-half of the Europeans population wiped out in the year 1347. The lymphatic system works closely with the immune system‚ therefore the bacteria is incredibly harmful for the whole body. (http://www.ukessays.co.uk/essays/biology/bubonic-plague

Using Kanamycin Resistance Bacteria to find the Sources of Contamination of Three Chicken Farms Introduction: Kanamycin is a common antibacterial that interferes with bacterial growth‚ by inhibiting protein synthesis‚ and causing the mistranslation of mRNA. Kanamycin is commonly used in chicken feed to keep harmful bacteria from getting into the eggs and producing healthier chickens. Recently reports of severe gastroenteritis have been linked to eating raw or undercooked eggs. This has led to

P1: you must explain how infections are caused by‚ bacteria‚ viruses‚ fungi and parasites. P2: you must explain how pathogenic microorganisms grow and spread. In this assignment I am going to explain how infections are caused by‚ bacteria‚ viruses‚ fungi and parasites. I will then explain how pathogenic microorganisms grow and spread. Infection is the process where germs enter a susceptible area in the body‚ where they multiply‚ resulting in disease. Colonisation is where microbes are present
