of the symptoms. The study of meningitis dates back to the 1960’s when the causative organisms were discovered and treatments were developed. Since then the mortality rate from bacterial meningitis has not changed much despite the introduction of new antibiotics and treatments (Hussein 360). In the case of bacterial meningitis no one casual organism causes all of the cases‚ but rather there are many that capable of causing it. Although there are many causal organisms‚ there are three that are

LEARNING ENGLISH MORPHOLOGY FOR EFL LEARNERS Generally‚ we can mention that EFL (English as a Foreign Language) learners are those who learn English tend to achieve the particular purpose. For example‚ they can use English when travelling or to communicate with other people from whatever country‚ who also speak English.

Bacteria Growth Requirements Microbiology Life as we now it has ended. What is left you ask? Well it is said the only thing that could survive an incident that could end our known way of life is a roach and a pack or Twinkies. In truth the great survivor would be microorganisms. Microorganisms can survive where most cannot due to their size‚ nutritional needs‚ energy requirements‚ and are very good at adapting to different environments (Black 2008). Microorganisms require two things to

identify an organism from a mixture of two unknown bacterial species. In order to accomplish this‚ I first plated my unknown mixture on Tryptic Soy Agar (TSA)‚ Columbia Naladixic Acid (CNA)‚ and MacConkey’s Agar (MAC) plates. After 48 hours of incubation‚ it was unclear that two different bacterial colonies had grown on my TSA plate. Only one type of colony was evident. However‚ it was apparent that I had successfully isolated two different bacterial species by examining my MAC and CNA plates. Only

Many of the bacteria that cause common bacterial infection are mutating and therefore gaining resistance. This means that the original antibiotics that were once used to treat these common illnesses are becoming increasing ineffective. This resistance delays treatment as the original antibiotics are ineffective. This can lead to the disease worsening and even death. This means that common illnesses that were once easily treated by antibiotics are no longer so easy to treat. This results in increased

inhibits the enzyme peptidyl transferase. This inhibition results to the prevention of the transfer of amino acid for growing peptide chains which leads to the inhibition of the formation of bacterial protein. (Michigan State University‚ 2011). Chloramphenicol is a broad-spectrum antibiotic. (Hitner et al.‚ 2016). Bacterial microorganisms become resistant by the inactivation of chloramphenicol through the enzyme acetyltransferases. (Rang et al.‚ 2016). Chloramphenicol resistance are very common in Staphylococcus

St Atanagio is a remote island in the Atlantic. The inhabitants grow corn and breed poultry. The accompanying table shows the maximum annual output combinations of corn and poultry that can be produced. Obviously‚ given their limited resources and available technology‚ as they use more of their resources for corn production‚ there are fewer resources available for breeding poultry. Maximum annual output options Quantity of Corn (pounds) Quantity of Poultry (pounds) 1 1200 0 2 1000 300
