tannins‚ saponins‚ flavonoids‚ phenol and cardic glycoside present in the various parts of Chrysophyllum albidium plant were investigated. These phytochemical were determined quantitatively and tested against staphylococcus aureus‚ B. subtilis‚ pseudomonas aeruginosa‚ E. coli‚ C. tetani‚ and the fungus; candida albicans. Most the plant parts were found to contain alkaloids‚ tannins‚ phenols and flavonoids except for the absence of cardic glycosides in the root‚ tannins in leaves‚ and phenol in seed. The

Results from the migration experiment showed P. aeruginosa‚ a polarly flagellated organism‚ swims faster than E. carotovora which is a peritrichously

20x106 ml-1 was obtained for the organism as it was above the value 105 which was used a guideline for effectiveness of the test. For class data there was four organisms investigated which were: Staphylococcus Aureus‚ Enterococcus hirae‚ Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli. In general the disinfectant didn’t work as class data shows some organism values weren’t above the benchmark value of 105. Intro Disinfectants are agents that destroy many of the components of the micro-organism

Chapter 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND Introduction A hand sanitizer or hand antiseptic is a supplement or alternative to hand washingwith soap and water. Various preparations are available‚ including gel‚ foam‚ and liquid solutions. The active ingredient in hand sanitizers may be isopropanol‚ ethanol‚ n-propanol‚ or povidone-iodine. Inactive ingredients in alcohol rubs typically include a thickening agentsuch as polyacrylic acid for alcohol gels‚ humectants such as glycerin for

Canada Spees Lab 2 Prokaryotes Purpose: Performing this lab will help me better understand the characteristics of prokaryotes and compare them with eukaryotes. This lab will also help me visualize and better understand the physical description‚ and the different types of bacteria and how they stain‚ whether it be gram positive or gram negative. Hypothesis: If I read the textbook and use the resource websites‚ then I will be able to better understand prokaryotes and describe the structural characteristics

These include Candida albicans‚ Pseudomonas aeruginosa‚ Escherichia coli‚ Aspergillus niger and Staphylococcus aureus. A cross-section of plants mentioned in the literature as being specifically targeted at these organisms are considered. The paper concludes with Appendices of plant materials

There was a 5 mm hypopyon in the right eye‚ and no view of the posterior segment in both eyes. The CL were not intact during the examination. – Corneal scrub and cultures revealed bilateral bacterial growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The patient was managed with hourly ciprofloxacin drops combined with oral levofloxacin‚ and topical dexamethasone 0.1% drops which resulted in healing of the epithelial defect. – By day seven after the treatment‚ the RE showed a reduction

DIFFERENT TYPES OF AGAR Mac Conkey‘s Agar plate MacConkey (also McConkey) agar is a culture medium designed to grow Gram-negative bacteria and stain them for lactose fermentation. It contains bile salts (to inhibit most Grampositive bacteria‚ except Enterococcus and some species of Staphylococcus)‚ crystal violet dye (which also inhibits certain Gram-positive bacteria)‚ neutral red dye (which stains microbes fermenting lactose)‚ lactose and peptone.
