ensuring political commitment with adequate funding. As the first step this is essential for the amount of resources that would need to be involved. This process will take manpower and funding. The second component includes case detection using bacteriology for diagnosis. This element also requires a strengthened laboratory network. An important aspect of this component would include properly trained individuals capable of following strict guidelines. The third component covers standardized treatment

Cross-Contamination and its Role in Food Poisoning Outbreaks Cross-contamination is one of the most major causes of food poisoning (Food Standards Agency‚ 2014). It is defined as ‘the process by which a substance that is harmful or dirty spreads from one area to another’ (Cambridge Online Dictionary‚ 2014) .There are 3 different types of contamination in the food industry; microbial contamination‚ physical contamination and chemical contamination‚ with microbial contamination being a more frequent

They were first reported in mammalian stomach just over 100 years ago.4‚5 Since the isolation of H pylori by Warren and Marshal‚ gastric microbiology attracted world-wide attention and much information has accumulated on the basic bacteriology of H pylori. Epidemiology The prevalence of H pylori in otherwise healthy individuals varies‚ depending mainly on age‚ education and income levels and country of origin. There are accumulating data suggesting that the major period of acquisition

Section: 309 ABSTRACT Shigellosis is the cause of dysentery‚ and even though it has for the most part been isolated in developing countries around the world‚ it is beginning to spread throughout the Middle East‚ Asia and Latin America. Though research and study has gone on for decades there is to this day no known effective vaccine for this bacterial infection. Continuing research brings us closer to this point but as of right now we must continue to fight it with multiple types of antibiotics

In the first part of this lab‚ E.coli cells were transformed with an R-plasmid carrying a tetracycline resistant gene‚ giving rise to tetracycline resistant E.coli strain. This was accomplished through transformation‚ which allowed E.coli to directly uptake the naked DNA molecule carrying the antibiotic resistant gene (1). However‚ in order to take up the DNA and incorporate them into their genome via recombination‚ cells must be competent (1). Therefore‚ E.coli cells which are not competent under

During my time at the University of Wisconsin- La Crosse‚ it was there that I not only discovered my passion for microbiology; but it was where I became aware of my career goal‚ to be an educator at the university level. I am grateful for the many experiences and the motivation brought on by my peers and mentors‚ which I came across to realize and to bring to fruition my goals. I strongly believe that the education that I receive in conjuncture with the strong mentorship that the State University
