Microbiology Sec 147848 November 18‚ 2013 Title of the Experiment: Enterobacteriaceae Identification: The Enterotube II System Learning Objectives: After completing this exercise we were able to inoculate an unknown bacterium that belongs to the Enterobacteriaceae by using technology effectively with a Enterotube II. An Enterotube II is a miniaturized multi-test system for rapid identification of enterbacteriaceae. We then evaluated the test results and generated a five-digit code for the unknown

3. Results and discussions 3.1. Disease Severity Results presented in Table 2 showed the disease severity (PDS) after 15 d of inoculation. A significant difference in the PDS was noticed between ‘Nicola’ and ‘Spunta’. The resistant cultivar (Nicola) showed lower incidence of infection compared to the susceptible cultivar (Spunta). Inducers’ treatments individually or in combination with difenoconazole (fungicide) showed significant protective effects against A. solani. The 2‚4-D was the most

The intellectual current known as the Enlightenment deeply affected the learned clergymen who headed colonial colleges and their students. Around 1650‚ some European thinkers began to analyze nature in order to determine the laws governing the universe. They employed experimentation and abstract reasoning to discover general principles behind phenomena such as the motions of planets and stars‚ the behavior of falling objects‚ and the characteristics of light and sound. Above‚ all Enlightenment

eventually starts to drain will occur during the first week. In the second week of receving the vaccine‚ the blister will then dry out and develop a scab. During the third week the scab will come off and a scar will remain at the site of inoculation. The site of inoculation must be covered since the virus that is used is live and can spread to different areas of the individuals body or to someone else.

this observation was to ascertain an in vivo function for microcins by studying Escherichia coli Nissle (EcN) and its relationship with related competitors in the gut. The first method that was used to conduct the experiment was the intra-gastric inoculation of the specific-pathogen-free mice with an equal mixture of a mouse-commensal E. coli (cEc) strain and the wild-type EcN or a mutant that was unable to secrete both microcins (mchDEF). This was done in order to understand if the microcins of EcN

Chinese would scrape scabs from smallpox victims on to healthy open pores of the arm dating back to 1000AD. They believed that exposing a person to a small amount of the disease would help them build up immunity towards it. This was also called inoculation. Such ideas inspired what we now call immunizations or vaccines. The history of vaccines begins with the emergence of incurable diseases including smallpox; leading to not only the development of a plethora of vaccines but gave way to the controversy

1.1. History Viruses that have been attenuated are less communicable than viruses that are not. Although the virus in the chickenpox inoculation is generally incompetent of causing an ailment‚ it still encourages a response from the body’s invulnerable system. 1.2. Causes In 1875‚ Steiner demonstrated that chickenpox was caused by a communicable agent by inoculating volunteers with the vesicular fluid from a patient with desperate varicella. Clinical explanations of the relationship between varicella

modern-day science‚ for example‚ plastic surgery‚ existed centuries ago. Here‚ the technologies of the Gupta Empire (320-467)‚ such as the development of a more accurate value for pi‚ the perfection of the modern numeral and decimal system; surgery‚ inoculation‚ the formulation of medical guides and a better calendar; and lunar astronomy‚ will be discussed in detail. First we will deal with the area of mathematics. One of the most recognized achievements of the Gupta period was the highly accurate calculation
