Bacteria are unicellular and ultra-microscopic organisms‚ yet they play an important role in nature. They are of tremendous importance to man. They play an important role in agriculture and medicine and are the basis of many industries. Some are beneficial to man directly or indirectly‚ others are very harmful as they cause various plant and animal diseases. Bacteria are considered as our friends and foes due to their beneficial and harmful activities. Their economic importance can be studied under

Water fluoridation is the process of addition of fluorides to the drinking water supplies so as to allow good dental health. Fluorides are present everywhere in the environment. At low levels it is not harmful but higher levels of fluoride are dangerous. Small levels of fluoride prevents in tooth decay. Among children whose teeth are forming excessive fluoride level has the ability to cause dental fluorsis‚ where as in adults this can lead to skeletal fluorosis having joint pains‚ denser bones

reasons is that it is easier to collect and process and there is a decreased risk of transmission of infectious disease. One point she mentioned that was interesting and that I was not aware of was that if the pregnant woman had a history of group B streptococcus‚ active genital herpes‚ or prolonged rupture of membranes and chorioamnionitis‚ the umbilical cord is not saved. A disadvantage that the author points out is that cord blood is discarded in about 50% or more cases due to insufficient volume.
