Summary Introduction
To determine: The types of microbes present in different areas of the body and the reason behind their presence.
Introduction: The human body provides many unique environments for different microbial communities to live in. The microbes that colonize the human body are referred to as the normal flora. Normal flora could be found in many sites of the body, including the skin, respiratory tract, digestive tract, and urinary tract.

- A craniotomy for biopsy was scheduled and the neurosurgeon advised the staff that the patient was being assessed for symptoms of ataxia and relatively sudden onset of dementia. Tumors and any other intracranial lesions had been ruled out by radiographic studies. The patient had lived in England approximately 10 years ago. Why would this particular disease and surgical procedure be of special concern for the handling, decontaminating, or reprocessing of the instrumentation?arrow_forwardA surgical technology student is completing rotation in the central sterile processing department.

Report on : Enterobacter aerogenes Part II – Describe the purpose of identifying unknown bacterial cultures in medical field. Name the step by step experiments/procedures that microbiologists follow in order to identify microorganisms. Part III - MethodsIn this section you are describing in detail all the tests that is done to identify the unknown organism. Gram Stain: Explain differences between gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms. Why One group will end up being purple and another group will be a different color. Very briefly describe the steps of Gram stain. Describe the appearance of your organism under the microscope (shape, color). Tests to identify Gram-negative organisms: List the name of organisms that you are considering. Describe all the tests in the logical and orderly manner.
