** Introduction : A medical microbiology lab performs testing on human samples collected from different body sites. The tests are used to detect and identify any microorganisms capable of causing disease. Knowing of unknown microorganism is important on how this microorganism works and how it is structured‚ means knowing how it can affect humans. The purpose of this study was to identify an unknown bacterium by applying all methods that were previously conducted and learned in the medical microbiology

First and foremost Thank-you for moving the students‚ faculty‚ and staff out of this building until the effected issues are addressed. The Watertown Elementary School Mission statement is as follows: I took this directly from the School Website. We will all agree that when we drop our kids off to school that we generally don’t fear for them since they are at school‚ and we trust the teachers and staff that they will take care of our “Pride and Joy” our children. However‚ on September 10th

Staphylococcus epidermidis is one of the most prevalent microorganisms found on the human skin and in the mucous membranes‚ however‚ it is a typically overlooked bacterium because there is very little that is known about it. Though it is not as aggressive as its cousin Staphylococcus aureus‚ Staphylococcus epidermidis is the most frequent cause for nosocomial pathogens‚ especially among newborns‚ the elderly‚ and anyone who has a compromised immune system. These infections are usually associated

Urinary tract infections refer to the presence of pathogenic microorganisms within the urinary tract and its classification is usually done on the basis of infection sites:-bladder [cystitis]‚ kidney [pyelonephritis]‚ or urine [bacteriuria] and also can be asymptomatic or symptomatic (Quigley R 2009‚ Schlager TA2001). They are among the most commonly acquired bacterial infections and they account for an estimated 25-40% of the nosocomial infections (Bagshaw SM‚ Laupland KB 2006). Urinary tract infection

report is to further explore the identification of my unknown bacteria by revealing the results of the experiments and comparing them to the other six known bacteria: Micrococcus luteus‚ Staphylococcus aureus‚ Staphylococcus epidermidis‚ Alcaligenes faecalis‚ Escherichia coli‚ and Proteus vulgaris that were used in the lab‚ as well as comparing and contrasting the actual and factual results. Its unique pink rod shaped morphology was the first step observed under the microscope to identify its unknown

Any species of bacteria can turn into a superbug. A superbug is a strain of bacteria that is resistant to antibiotics. According to webmd.com "Every year‚ about 2 million people get sick from a superbug‚ according to the CDC. About 23‚000 die. Earlier this year‚ an outbreak of CRE (carbapenem-resistant enterobacteriaceae) linked to contaminated medical tools sickened 11 people at two Los-Angeles area hospitals. Two people died‚ and more than 200 others may have been exposed." This has become a serious
