Bacteria In the petri dish in Figure 1, the bacteria Esherichia coli (E. coli) was grown and treated with disks soaked in different substances. Disk A was soaked in hand sanitizer, Disk B left untreated and Disk C was soaked in bleach The darker space around disks A and C where there is no growth of bacteria is called O Streptococcus pneumonae O ytic cycle O antibodies O the zone of inhibition

a) What is “washing” in immunology? What types of interactions doeswashing interfere with? What molecules are used for effective“washing” in the immunology lab?b) Blocking is also a common feature of immunological assays. Why isblocking required?i. A student forgot to block their Western blot membrane beforeadding the secondary antibody. They continue and block themembrane after the secondary antibody step, assuming itdoesn’t matter which order the steps are completed in. Howwould this affect the results seen?ii. A student blocked their ELISA plate with 50 microlitres ofblocking buffer, although their coating, binding and detectionsteps were at 100 microlitres. How would this affect the resultsseen?
Based off of the concept of the COVID-19 vaccination, which of the following conditions is very similar to that same concept used to develop immunity to the COVID-19 virus?a. postinfectious arthritisb. type I diabetesc. lupusd. heart attackse. grave’s disease
SYstemic Lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease in which antibodies are produced that target the person's own DNA. The DNA must be outside of the person's cell , in plasma and/ or interstitial space,in order antivodies to bind it. Immune resposes are thoght to be part of the cause of this aspect of lupus. Of the following which is moast likely to allow the preon's DNA to be exposed otside of cells? A, conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin B, Inflammation C, Complement Membrane Attack Complex D, Interferons E,Neutrophil Extracellular Traps
A pathogenic bacteria has entered the body via a wound: A few hours later, antigen presenting cells (APCs) can be observed displaying antigenic fragments of the bacteria. Explain the process starting with a bacterial cell living in the body and ending with an APC displaying antigenic fragments
Katelyn had been working for Dr. Johnson for a month, and while she had become quite good at measuring inhibitionzones, she didn’t know why she was doing all this work. She had gotten very curious after she began doing all themeasurements on a new set of antibiotics. # is experiment involved infecting mice with MRSA and tracking how theMRSA grew over time.Data were collected by counting the cells of MRSA taken from $ uid samples from the mice. # e cells were measuredby taking one gram of the $ uid and spreading it over plates, but now Katelyn counted the colonies that grew on theplate after 24 hours. Because there were so many, she actually measured the colonies as “log CFU/g.” A CFU is acolony forming unit, or essentially a cell that will divide into a colony that can be seen. Because there can be so many,Katelyn measured them on a logarithmic (log) scale. # e raw data in her lab notebook looked like the following:Table 1.

High numbers of “good” bacteria are foundin the intestine and on the skin. The immune system needs to protect these areasfrom invading microbes, but cannot respond as strongly to the normal microflorawithout causing problems. What are somepossible ways that immune cells coulddistinguish “good” from “bad” bacteria?

There have been recurring cases of mad-cow disease in the United Kingdom since the mid-1990s. Mad-cow disease is caused by a prion, an infectious particle that consists only of protein. In 1986, the media began reporting that cows all over England were dying from a mysterious disease. Initially, there was little interest in determining whether humans could be affected. For 10 years, the British government maintained that this unusual disease could not be transmitted to humans. However, in March 1996, the government did an about-face and announced that bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), commonly known as mad-cow disease, can be transmitted to humans, where it is known as variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (VCJD). As in cows, this disease eats away at the nervous system, destroying the brain and essentially turning it into a spongelike structure filled with holes. Victims experience dementia; confusion; loss of speech, sight, and hearing; convulsions; coma; and finally death. Prion diseases are always fatal, and there is no treatment. Precautionary measures taken in Britain to prevent this disease in humans may have begun too late. Many of the victims contracted it over a decade earlier, when the BSE epidemic began, and the incubation period is long (VCJD has an incubation period of 10 to 40 years). A recent study concluded that 1 in 2,000 people in Great Britain carry the abnormally folded protein that causes VCJD. In spite of these numbers, the death rate from VCJD remains low. It is not clear whether this means that the incubation period for the disease is much longer than previously thought, or whether they may never develop the disease. How can a prion replicate itself without genetic material?
