Antibiotic Production from the plant Lantana camara Project Summary The purpose of this experimental procedure is targeted to find a novel bacterium from the soil of Lantana camara that can be used in the dental field to kill or stop the growth of the Streptococcus mutans bacteria. The experimental procedure is to take place over a time frame of ten weeks conducted by a student team of four. The proposed methodology to take place is to cultivate and purify isolates from the soil‚ find antibiotic

MLT1: ANTIBIOTIC SENSITIVE LAB Western Governor’s University When antimicrobials are used to treat an infection‚ the antimicrobial used is based on selective toxicity. Selective toxicity is when the agent selected kills or inhibits the bacteria without causing serious harm to the host. The agent must interact with a function or structure of the microbe that is not present or is very different from the host. There are two different types of antimicrobial agents: antibiotics and antimicrobial

Current research is being conducted with bacteriophages because they have been identified as a prospective alternative bio-control method to control Salmonella contamination in a variety of foods. Bao‚ P. Zhang‚ H. Zhang‚ Zhou‚ L. Zhang‚ and Wang isolated two new lytic SE phages‚ (PA13076) and (PC2184)‚ using two host strains of Salmonella enteritidis (SE) ATCC13076 and CVCC2184.

The history of Barbie’s trace back to the 1950’s. Dolls have generally changed in size and appearance over the years. Growing up every holiday‚ birthday or Christmas I would want a new doll. My mother was the same way‚ as soon as she found out she was having a daughter she found all her old dolls to pass on. My favorite doll she passed down to me was her Barbie. Barbie dolls were the coolest dolls because they had different hair and different eye colors. Still to this day Barbie’s have been produced

understand the interaction between bacteria and antibiotics better. Such great understanding would then allow for manipulation of the drug usage‚ thereby strengthening our understanding of how to optimise antibiotic performance. Over the past decade‚ there have been numerous occasions where researchers have successfully identify possible pharmacodynamic outcome predictors‚ and assign quantitative values that would enable prediction of success/failure of antibiotic regimens. Furthermore‚ after reading this

Bacterial Transformation Lab Introduction: In this experiment we transformed a strain of E. Coli bacteria without antibiotic resistance with plasmid DNA. This plasmid produces a fluorescent green glow under black light due to the gfp(green fluorescent protein) as well as antibiotic resistance. E. Coli cells will be plated on an agar medium‚ some with and some without the antibiotic ampicillin. Only bacterial cells that contain the plasmid will survive the ampicillin and produce the green glow

The advantages and disadvantages of Antibiotic usage in Humans Since the discovery of antibiotics and their usefulness in therapeutic interventions‚ they have risen to prominence owing to their ability to improve the quality of life through the treatment and management of a wide array of diseases of bacterial aetiology. An Antibiotic is a compound or substance that kills or slows down the growth of bacteria. Antibiotics are powerful drugs for disease management making

TRACE EVIDENCE AS AN IMPORTANT TOOL UNDER FORENSIC SCIENCE Introduction Edmond Locard‚ founder of the Institute of Criminalistics at the University of Lyon‚ France‚ developed what has become known as Locard’s Exchange Principle. This states that “every contact leaves a trace”‚ implying that a criminal will leave trace and take away trace evidence when at a crime scene. Trace evidence often refers to minute samples of a substance‚ particularly fibres‚ hairs‚ glass fragments and paint chips. Crime
