spinal cord. Bacterial meningitis is the most critical type of meningitis. The organism that is the source of bacterial meningitis lives in the nose (nasal) and throat (pharynx and larynx). People of all ages can carry them without being sick‚ however‚ they can spread the infection by sneezing or coughing. This infection needs instantaneous medical treatment or awareness due to the fact that it is a very serious infection. Haemophilus influenza type b is the very common cause of bacterial meningitis

Microbial Growth of Consumable Products By Bryce Wilmott AIM: To calculate the quantity of observable microbial colonies on the surface of the Agar solid‚ as to determine the presence of microbes in consumable products i.e. yoghurt and blue vein cheese. HYPOTHESIS: Microbial growth will be present in two of the three Agar plates (those containing the food product) due to the suspected presence of microbes‚ whilst the control Agar plate (containing no food products)

numerous compared to the human population‚ it could seem quite difficult or maybe even impossible for scientists to analyze each and every single one of these microbes. So that is why we would be using a simple approach to looking at diversity in bacterial communities. In this experiment we went out to collect samples from the American River in order to analyze the various diversity in Bacteria species in the community. We focus our experiment by looking at a portion of the gene called the 16S rRNA

plasmid because the plasmid itself was already cut with restriction enzymes‚ so the GFP gene could perfectly fit where the arabinose genes had been on the operon. Instead of testing different types of plasmids/genes that could be taken up by the bacterial cells‚ this experiment focused on just one engineered plasmid to see if successful transformation could cause phenotypic modification in the cells. However‚ both this experiment and Cehovin (2013) were able to conclude that transformation of DNA

Evidence Based Topic Assignment- Sinusitis According to JAMA: Sinusitis is defined as inflammation of one or more paranasal sinuses but usually refers to infection of the sinuses. However not all "sinus" complaints are bacterial sinusitis. The gold standard for diagnosing sinusitis‚ for clinical research‚ is through sinus aspiration and culture. Among those pt’s who were thought to have sinusitis‚ only 50% actually had the disease based on sinus aspirates. For general practice‚ the use of radiography

Identification of Bacillus subtilis and Serratia marcescens Through a Battery of Tests and Plates Introduction: The purpose of this experiment was to use a systematic battery of tube tests and plates designed to lead to identification of two unknown bacterial species‚ from the combination of all results. A sample of bacteria was used‚ labeled “Sample 4”‚ from which both species was to be obtained‚ one gram positive and one gram negative. Table 1 is a list of the possible bacteria to be identified; the
