MOLECULAR DETECTION OF FUNGAL DISEASES INTRODUCTION With the rise of many new diseases caused due to viruses‚ bacteria and fungi; it is essential for the rapid detection of such diseases. The severity of such diseases can be reduced by its rapid detection carried out by different methods. The conventional methods may include the idea of just identifying the disease symptoms‚ identification of these pathogens in the laboratory by different morphological and biochemical tests‚ etc [1]. The conventional

A pathogen is a tiny non-visible disease causing microorganism such as Bacteria‚ Virus and Fungus. Both the scientific name and common name for Actinomycosis is Actinomycosis. The pathogens that cause Actinomycosis are from a species of Actinomyces‚ most commonly known as Actinomyces Israelii and Actinomyces Gerencseriae. The species of Actinomyces are an Actinobacteria class of Bacteria. The pathogens are endogenous‚ meaning the bacteria originate from inside the body‚ making them not liable to

Social and Economic Implications of diseases in Plants and Animals Plants (Social) There are many social implications of disease in plants. Some of which are: Loss of Productivity and reduced consumption: The diseases that affect the plants make them unable to function properly‚ which affects their growth processes. They are dangerous to use and this will negatively affect the consumers of these plants. If these disease-infected plants are consumed‚ they will harm the organisms. It may even

sharps-related injuries which expose workers to bloodborne pathogens continues to be an important public health concern. Workers in many different occupations are at risk of exposure to bloodborne pathogens‚ including Hepatitis B‚ Hepatitis C‚ and HIV/AIDS. First aid team members‚ housekeeping personnel in some settings‚ nurses and other healthcare providers are examples of workers who may be at risk of exposure. Bloodborne Pathogens is addressed in standards specifically for the general industry

microbiology class at Brunswick Community College. This journey started out with a media plate cultured with an unknown species of bacteria. I was then instructed by my professor to use all of my previous knowledge to identify the unknown bacterial pathogen. This lab led me to master my skills of using the Gram stain‚ testing for catalase‚ testing for coagulase and using the oxacillin screen. Now I am going to take you with me on the journey to the unknown. As I recall from earlier that semester

1. Make sure you label both plates on the bottom‚ with your name‚ date and name of pathogen you have chosen (listed above under materials) Then label numbers 1-5 on one plate and 6-10 on the other as there are 10 disks that need to be placed. Spread out in a circle formation like pictured below (This is the final product; look at this for reference on how to label) Now you are ready to start culturing. Start with one of your plates you can do both at the same time but to avoid making any errors

virus microbes. Bacteria and viruses are tiny microscopic pathogens that can cause infectious disease‚ or even result in death. “Infectious diseases remain a major cause of death‚ disability‚ social‚ and economic disorders for millions of people around the world. Poor health care‚ poverty‚ human migration‚ emerging disease agents‚ and antibiotic resistance all contribute to the expanding impact of infectious diseases.” However‚ there are several defense mechanisms that can

The uses of plants in developing and producing vaccines For thousands of years‚ society has been brought to the brink of disaster thanks to the spread of resilient diseases and the plague of hardy viruses. However‚ humans have been aware for just as long of medicinal defence mechanisms against these ailments. The ancient Egyptians and Romans‚ as well as the primitive islander and Aboriginal communities‚ knew that certain herbaceous matter could help heal the wounded and sick. In more recent times

General information: What is E.coli? Escherichia coli‚ or commonly referred to as E.coli is a foodborne pathogen that normally inhabits in the intestinal track of humans and animals. It is the most common and wide spread infecting organism and is in the family‚ Enterobacteriaceae. Enterobacteriaceae is a large family of Gram-negative bacteria‚ meaning the bacteria appear pinkish or red. How fast and how does it spread? The main way that E.coli can spread is through food and water supply. Common
