INTRODUCTION Bacillus anthracis has recently become popular as the causative agent of anthrax infections. Belonging to the bacillus species‚ the bacterium is considered‚ along with Bacillus cereus‚ to be of extreme medical importance. Until recently‚ the condition caused by the bacterium was rarely heard of. Although the bacterium is naturally found in the soil‚ its rare occurrences in humans have only been observed in those working with livestock or imported livestock products‚ therefore the

List of the entire famous scientist Alessandro Volta(1745-1827) An Italian Physicist who was a pioneer in the development of electricity. He created the first electric battery in 1800. This battery gave the world its first continuous‚ reliable source of electric current‚ and led to all important discoveries of the use of electricity. The unit of measuring electromotive force (emf)‚ Volt(v) is named after him. He also proposed the law that the air expands at a constant rate with increasing temperature

The Role of Agarase in Agar-Degrading Bacteria Abstract Agar-Degrading (agarolytic) Bacteria is physiological class of bacteria capable of utilising agar as a sole carbon source. This ability is made available by the use of agarases - enzymes which break down agarose into oligosaccharides. This physiological class branches through genii‚ regardless of Gram Stain status or morphology. Through a review of scientific literature we can find identification methods‚ optimum conditions and the

LSM1102 Lab Report Introduction Transformation is a process which involves plasmid DNA being bound to the cell surface and the subsequent uptake of DNA by the cell (Panja et al.‚ 2008). For artificial transformation of E. coli cells with plasmids‚ plasmid DNA has to be extracted from bacterial cells using the High-Speed Plasmid Mini Kit‚ which is then mixed with competent E. coli cells followed by heat shock and the streaking of transformed cells on two different types of agar plate (LB and LB+ampicillin)

born in Ayshire in the lowlands of southwestern Scotland (Sir Alexander Fleming-Biography). Fleming was obsessed with the body’s fight with infection and he became a professor at St. Mary’s Hospital Medical School on September 1‚ 1928 he taught bacteriology (Saeed). However‚ Fleming had continued to do research on the bacterium that causes staph infections in the blood stream and was trying to figure out a cure for it (Streble). Fleming was considered to be quite the “packrat”; he refused to throw

My opinion on why we study English lexicology How many words are there in the modern English language? There is no single sensible answer to this question. It is impossible to count the number of words in a language‚ because it is so hard to decide what counts as a word. But it is widely accepted by linguists that there are one million or so English words now. If so‚ a subject is needed to study and analyze modern English vocabulary. Thus‚ English-lexicological learning is important in some aspects
