it was unknown if it even exist in the host. However‚ in a recent paper characterizing genital chlamydial infections in two patients‚ evidence of persistence growth forms were found and isolated‚ and the morphological and molecular analysis showed that chlamydial persistency does exist in vivo in some patients [31]. Women that acquire new infections or are unable to fully clear their infection are more prone to diseases such as pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)‚ endometriosis‚ life threatening ectopic

MRSA. There are currently an insufficient amount of studies to support the viability of tea tree oil in clinical practice against the eradication of MRSA. Introduction Antibiotics have saved millions of lives by killing harmful bacteria that cause infections. But the overuse of antibiotics has lead to the development of strains of bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics. MRSA‚ or methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus‚ is a type of bacteria

affected by ear infection. However‚ this ear problem can also affect children. The cause of the adult ear infection is when the Eustachian tube is infected. The inner ear and the nasal passages are connected by the Eustachian tube that allows the fluid to drain from the ears. Likewise‚ the pressure inside and outside of the body is equalize when the fluid is drained. Infection is greatly possible when mucous starts to accumulate in the Eustachian tube. There are several factors that can cause the ear infection

Smallpox is a lethal infection cause by the variola virus in which pus filled bumps called pox‚ spread across the body of a person who has a disease. The virus is only susceptible to humans‚ insects and other animals could not transmit or sustain the virus within themselves. Coming into contact with a person carrying the disease‚ usually face to face interaction‚ was the only way to obtain it. Since there is still no known cure for smallpox‚ scientists use the last two remaining samples on earth

Quest 1-2: Describe the fluid mosaic model of plasma membrane structure and list the major components of the membrane. How did scientists discover that the membrane was “fluid”? Explain one experiment that we discussed. • The fluid mosaic model of plasma membrane was the idea that lipids or proteins could move in the membrane laterally. The plasma membrane is made up of a phospholipid bilayer and controls a lot of what goes in and out of the membrane by the organelles from within. The bilayer is

Hospital-acquired infections (HAI) are the infections patients acquire while receiving treatment in a healthcare facility. In 2011‚ there was an estimated 722‚000 HAIs in U.S. hospitals resulting in 75‚000 deaths (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC]‚ 2016). In addition to an increase in disease and mortality‚ HAIs negatively affect patient care by increasing patient length of stay and inpatient costs (Syndor & Perl‚ 2011). Intensive care units (ICUs) are associated with greater risk
