Antimicrobial Agents Lisette Vazquez October 27‚ 2013 Antimicrobial Agents Antimicrobial agents are utilized to kill microorganisms that cause infections. In order to be able to kill these microorganisms we must have an understanding of the factor associated with the infection. The purpose of this paper is to explore the different types of antimicrobial agents and the differences between viral and bacterial infections. Antimicrobial Agent Categories There are several antimicrobial

Diversity and Ubiquity of Microbes Pre-Laboratory Questions 1. What environmental settings would you expect to provide rich sources of microbes‚ in terms of overall numbers and different microbial types? Since the most of the microbes are ubiquitous‚ they are readily found in public bathrooms‚ phones‚ countertops‚ door handles‚ kitchen sinks‚ and human body parts such as the face and hands (Sherwood‚ 2017). In addition‚ public places exemplified by hospitals‚ grocery stores‚ and schools present an
