TREATING TB. Keep in mind that Isonaizd(INH) is the established treatment for preventive therapy ‚ and the usual regimen is up to 300mg daily for adults. You can keep pts on for 6 months or 12 months with a positive CXR. Always give vitB6 when treating pts with INH. If there is a suspected resistance then use Rifampin (RIF) alone or in combo with the said INH. How do we treat current CLASSES III & IV diseases. The first line medications are used in combinations since these tend to delay

Unknown Lab Report #1 Unknown #1 April 25‚ 2012 Microbiology Spring 2012 MCB2010C Unknown #1 Introduction Identity of a microorganism has proven to be very significant. Doing so can help identify diseases and created treatment and cures for such diseases. As a result‚ various laboratory tests were performed to an unknown microbe (Unknown #1) found in the water of a nearby pond. By identify the microbe‚ the safety of the water will be known to those around it. Materials and Methods

Other bacteria‚ that are Serratia marcescens‚ Proteus vulgaris‚ and Klebsiella aerogenes form circular colony. For S. marcescens and K. aerogenes they have entire margin while P. vulgaris form even margin. S. marcescens form umbonate elevatiob and mucoid texture.

In the decayed tomato samples assessed‚ fungi isolates were more prevalent than bacteria. However‚ there were wide variations in microbial population‚ with Mucor spp being predominant (28 isolates)‚ followed by A. niger (11 isolates) and Rhizopus stolonifer (Figure 1). These results corroborate previous studies of Ogunbanwo et al. (2014) and Fatima et al. (2015) who reported that fungi were more prevalent compared to bacteria.
