Introduction The purpose of this paper was to inform the reader of the importance of microbiology in the world today. Microbiology studies the behavior of microorganisms and teaches students about the effect of bacteria‚ fungi‚ viruses‚ algae‚ and yeast on living things. Studying these microorganisms gives insight to the spread of different diseases and how

Lahela Correa 12/08/2009 Microbiology 140 Matthew Tuthill Unknown Lab Report Introduction There are many reasons for knowing the identity of microorganisms. The reasons range from knowing the causative agent of a disease in a patient‚ so as to know how it can be treated‚ to knowing the correct microorganism to be used for making certain foods or antibiotics. This study was done by applying all of the methods that I have been learned so far in the microbiology laboratory class for the identification

Dr. GEORGE ROMBO Cholera This is an infection of the small intestine caused by bacterium vibrio cholera. Transmission is mostly from the fecal contamination of food and water that is caused by poor sanitation Susceptibility About 100 million bacteria must typically be ingested to cause cholera in a normal healthy adult. Children are also more susceptible with 2- 4 year old having the highest rates of infection Individual susceptibility to cholera is also affected by their blood type with
