Summary Introduction
Infection is the growth of microorganisms that are not usually present inside the host. A host is an organism that harbors a pathogen, another organism that survive in or on the host and causing disease. The disease is tissue damage or injury that impairs function of the host. The unique properties of each pathogen contribute to its pathogenicity, the ability of a microorganism to cause disease.
