by shape and size. Coccus Coccus refers to spherical shaped bacteria that may live as individual cells‚ or pair up to form chains or bunches. Staphylococcus and Streptococcus are the most common bacteria in this group and usually are Gram-positive. These bacteria perform useful functions in the body and environment but they can be harmful. Staphylococcus aureus can cause impetigo (skin infection)‚ scalded skin syndrome and food poisoning‚ while Streptococcus pyogenes may cause tonsillitis and strep

There are many hospital departments‚ staffed by a wide variety of healthcare professionals‚ with some crossover between departments. For example‚ physiotherapists often work in different departments and doctors often do the same‚ working on a general medical ward as well as an intensive or coronary care unit.

Nafcillin and cefazolin are considered first-line therapy for most infections with methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA).1 Nafcillin is a Beta-lactam antibiotic which is mainly bactericidal‚ anti-staphylococcal. Due to its side chains‚ it is penicillinase hydrolysis resistant. Thus‚ its coverage for MSSA. It Is usually unlikely to experience Drug-induced

Most Effective Hand Cleaner Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to: (a) determine if hand soap or alcohol gel is the most effective in killing Staphylococcus aureus (b) obtain the statistical difference of effectiveness in killing S. aureus between hand soap and alcohol gel. The null hypothesis is that neither hand soap nor alcohol gel is effective in killing S. aureus more than the control group which is nothing at all. The alternate hypothesis is that hand soap versus the control
