Antibiotic resistance results from bacteria changing in ways that make those antibiotics no longer useful. Resistance is a common yet problematic issue in treating pulmonary exacerbations or infections in people with Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Not all bacteria are bad. However‚ there are some that can cause infections. As bacteria are exposed to antibiotics over time‚ resistance may develop‚ and the number of antibiotics we have to kill the bacteria decreases as well. Thus‚ it is important to learn

Both prokaryotic cells that create bacteria and eukaryotic cells that make up most other forms of life evolve. Natural selection and genetic variation are simply the way evolution happens. This is why there is an antibiotic resistance. If bacteria are constantly changing then antibiotics must change too. Evolution is an amazing process that explains and justifies change. In New Mexico at the Carlsbad Caverns National Park there is a unique and enlightened discovery. There are many caves in the

Laboratory Long report. Electronic laboratory practice Abstract: The aim of this laboratory was to make us familiar with how to use the different types of electronic equipment and how to accurately use them to make measurements. The equipment used in this laboratory included: (i) the signal generator which was used to supply the power used in the various procedures‚ (ii) The oscilloscope which was used to view and record the waves produced from the AC currents and then make relevant calculations

A medical laboratory technologist‚ also referred to as clinical laboratory scientist or medical laboratory scientist‚ are a big part of a health care team. Medical laboratory technologists primarily study and practice diagnostic medicine by generating accurate and reliable test results in chemistry‚ hematology‚ immunology‚ immunohematology‚ and microbiology. A medical laboratory technologists typically collect samples and perform tests to analyze body fluids such as blood and urine‚ tissue‚ and other

A General Review of Tetracyclines Antibiotics Chang Liu Instructor: Prof. Jasson Sello Department of Chemistry‚ Brown University Providence 02906‚ RI Tetracyclines are the first broad-spectrum antibiotic to be applied to clinic use. Nevertheless‚ the increasing incidence of bacterial resistance of tetracyclines led to a series of studies on the development of semisynthetic tetracyclines to circumvent the resistant organisms. In order to better design the structures of tetracycline derivatives

Unit 10 Assignment 2: The Endocrine System: Diseases and Age-Related Changes Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) Human chorionic gonadotropin is a hormone that can be detected in the urine or blood of both males and females. It is more often seen in pregnant women but can also be found in cancerous tumors of the uterus and testicles. HCG aides in establishing pregnancy and has also been used here lately in some forms of weight loss programs although not always approved. Cushing’s Disease Cushing
