The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has reported between 8,000 and 18,000 cases of Legionnaires' disease annually in the United States, caused by the spread of the Legionella bacteria. What can you do to protect your facility by preventing Legionella and other waterborne pathogens? Here are five practices you can implement to protect your patients, employees, and facility by preventing bacterial outbreaks in your facility water system.

Esherichia coli also known as E. coli is a bacterium that lives in your gut. (1). it was founded by Theodore von Esherich in 1888. There are many people that can get the bacteria. Also there are thousands of strands of E.coli. Six E. coli O157 outbreaks were identified during 2007. Four of the outbreaks involved foodborne transmission. (Eshericha Coli). Six Minnesota cases and one Wisconsin case with the same or closely-related PFGE subtype of E. coli O157:H7, and an additional Minnesota case of Shiga-toxin producing E. coli that was not culture-confirmed, attended the Minnesota State Fair in August. All but one of the cases showed cattle or visited the cattle

Have you ever drove home from work, having a feeling you were forgetting to do something important? It’s 7 o’clock in the evening, you just realized that you were supposed to pay a bill before the bank closed. The money is there in the account but, how is the bank supposed to receive it? Well, luckily you pull out an iphone 6 to transfer the money into the account to pay the bill by using e-banking. Simple as that, you go home with a clear conscience knowing only that your bill is paid. Of course, people only care for the end results of a situation, but it’s sometimes good to consider what goes on in the transition. Crucial data such as financial record and pin number need to be under tight security. Only highly advanced technology that was

Microorganisms are both beneficial and harmful. These microorganisms are important to humans because they play a role in the ecology of life, by decomposing wastes, both natural and man-made, such as creating nitrogen fertilizer at the root zones of certain crops. Other several pathogens that can cause serious harm, even immediate death due to the diseases or disease causing products they produce. Overall, microorganisms play an important role in life.

Escherichia Coli, located in one of the main organs known as the large intestine, is a type of bacteria that helps digestion. (Trzepacz, Timmons, and Duobinis-Gray, 2016) For Escherichia Coli to remain stable and alive, it needs specific necessities. These needs are known as the following: Energy, vitamins, and similar compounds. Escherichia Coli is found everywhere!

“While motility is commonplace among the prokaryotes, it is important to note the variety of structures responsible for motility. These structures vary depending not only on the organism in question, but also on the particular environment” (Bardy, Ng, & Jarrell, 2003). “Study of the bacterial flagellum has provided insights into many aspects of prokaryotic cellular activities including genetics and regulation, physiology, environmental sensing, protein secretion and assembly of complex structures” (Bardy, Ng, & Jarrell, 2003). “Continued study of all prokaryotic motility structures will provide knowledge that is likely to reach far beyond the topic of motility and pathogenicity” (Bardy, Ng,

The best and most accurate way of identifying an unknown microorganism is by sequencing its DNA, but this is very expensive and only used in highly qualified labs. So, the identification of unknown bacteria number 63 was be done by putting the bacteria through numerous laboratory tests. Microorganisms are different among each other by their macroscopic morphology, microscopic morphology, and the unique metabolic processes they use to survive and reproduce. Identifying an unknown microorganism in the laboratory is important because knowledge is gained on the appropriate way to cultivate an organism, how to correctly read the result of a test, and learning about the different characteristics of the bacteria. All of the following tests were done using the best sterile technique and the most new turbid bacterial growth subculture.

exposure, but they can take up to 30 days to develop. Gonorrhea symptoms in women include:

After several biochemical tests, Unknown Bacteria #30 was identified as Staphylococcus aureus. After growing the bacteria on Nutrient Agar to ensure a pure sample, it was Gram stained to determine morphology and arrangement. It was observed to be a Gram positive staphylococci. Then, the bacteria was inoculated onto a Mannitol Salt Agar plate. After incubation, it was observed to have bacterial growth and the agar was yellow in color. According to the lab manual (2), MSA contains 7.5% NaCl and phenol red, a pH indicator. Due to the salt content, MSA is selective for salt-tolerant bacteria and the phenol red allows MSA to differentiate for mannitol fermentation. Mannitol fermentation is indicated by a yellow color change, which is the result of acidic byproducts changing the pH of the agar. The results showed that the bacteria was both salt-tolerant and able to ferment mannitol.

Have people ever thought about the risks of on farm salmonella, and the danger it poses to hog herds as well as the public health? Salmonella control starts at the beginning of finishing farms, breeding herds, feed suppliers, and on to the slaughter houses. Salmonella control programs have already been established in several European countries to help reduce their salmonella on hog farms. Salmonella is one of the most important food borne pathogens as well as the second most common source of zoonotic human infection. Farmers and veterinarians are striving to pursue an effective plan to decrease salmonella on hog farms through several ways of prevention.

Under 40x magnification – a view of loads of bacteria moving about with undefined shapes.

C. jejuni is a gram-negative bacterium (Phongsisay V, 2016) as well as being microaerophilic (Kim et al, 2015), nonfermenting and helical shaped (Frirdich et al, 2014). C. jejuni may have either a uni or bi-polar flagella, which contain rods enabling its motility (Baldvinsson et al, 2014). When translated from Greek C. jejuni means ‘curved rod’: campylos (curved) and baktron (rod), named due to its properties.

Science in this day and age has been able to produce many amazing, new technologies, but the nanorobot design will require more research and creations in the science world in order to be developed. Although nanorobots have been in the process of being designed, they are still very far from creating the working model. In order for this to happen, many breakthroughs in science must occur. These breakthroughs will need to include bio-receptors, machines small enough to work within your cells, and obtaining power to allow the nanobot to complete all its tasks.

Nanotechnology is the development of atoms in a certain object. Nanotechnology has become very popular in the past few years. It is a way to rebuild the systems of life. To make systems move faster than ever before. Nanometer is about 10 times the size of an atom. Each of these has a huge effect on a system. Still there are questions out there that keep people wondering how important nanotechnology is to us. Many wonder how will it affect them and if we should continue this research. I myself wondered about nanotechnology. After researching this topic I have learned new and interesting facts to help me understand the entire concept.

Although both Archaeal and bacterial cells possess flagella for motility, the composition of each organism’s flagellum is very different. In bacterial cell, the flagellum is composed of a basal body, external protein filaments both are joined together by a third component called the hook.(Bacteria Flagella David Gene Morgan , Shahid Khan). In Archaeal, the protein filament is polymerised, glycosylated and very much thinner. The Archaeal flagellum is believed to be similar to the bacteria IV pilus in structure.(www.uniprot.org/keywords/974).
