Catheter associated urinary tract infection (Author’s name) (Institutional Affiliation) Catheterization is a frequently part of care for various surgical procedures. The study confirmed that patients lacked knowledge in catheterization and most of the patients were limited in decision making on when the catheter was to be removed. The clinical problem and research problem that led to the study being carried in the clinic was that the use of urinary catheter

Introduction Medical microbiology is an aspect of microbiology sciences. Microbiological systems play a vital role in people’s everyday life. Specifically, bacteria maintain processes within and on the body. Bacteria can also cause disease from an infection of the opportunistic bacteria living symbiotically with people or foreign bacteria introduced from various plausible sources. The identification of the unknown bacteria was accomplished by an independent study of numerous biochemical tests. The

The field of Microbiology allows scientists to identify microscopic organisms and their importance in the world. The purpose of this paper is to present differential media as well as common experiments along with utilization of the microscope to identify the unknown organism 52. One of essential technique for the laboratory identification or the unknown organism is the use of aseptic technique. Aseptic technique allows the transfer of organisms from one medium to another without contamination of

Someone who studies small things, like bacteria or viruses, and tries to figure out how they function, how they interact with organisms, and how organisms try to fight back. Me: Question #2- What grabbed your interest to pursue your studies in microbiology? Metzler: It really started when I was a freshman in college. The immunologist at my school came and spoke to my introductory to biology class and was talking to use about the immune system and was discussing the randomness of how antibodies are

and germs and also prevent the overgrowth of harmful microbes such as bacteria, yeasts and parasites, making healthy bacteria vital for a strong immune system. Your gut microbiology is not only working hard to fight off any illness but it is also working hard to keep your hormones balance. Not only does your gut microbiology work at breaking down hormones but also play a role in producing certain hormones. So how does all this link together? Lets start with the thyroid, a butterfly shaped gland

You are given a sputum sample from a patient that may be infected with a bacterium from one of the following genera: Bacillus, Escherichia, or Mycoplasma.  In a Microsoft Word document, describe the important anatomical differences among these three genera (i.e., those features that could be used to differentiate among them) and the staining protocols you would use to identify which genera is causing the patient’s infection.  When discussing each staining protocol, it is important not only to mention

In five years, I will just have finished getting my PhD in Microbiology. I will be getting ready to start my post-doc training. My work will be geared towards getting me a job at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. I am doing this because I love the field of microbiology and I want to work in. I want to get a lot of experience in the field so that I can teach others at the university level about microbiology and share my passion and love for the subject. Five years after this I will be

microscope, my interest in microbiology started to take its shape. I became even intensely interested when he told us that bacteria and virus are invisible to your naked eyes, however they can cause you disease and some might kill you. After the completion of my high school as a science major student, my parents wanted me to join medical school and become a doctor. But I had already encrypted curiosity of microbiology inside my mind. So, I began my journey into the world of microbiology. I secretly joined

MBK Lab 01 – Lab Report Name: ____________________ Section: ___________________ EXPERIMENT 1 TITLE: Observing Bacteria and Blood OBJECTIVE: To gain functional knowledge of microscope operations through practical applications of a microscope in the observation of bacteria and blood. PROCEDURES: Using the microscope, an oil immersion lens and observing Bacteria Cultures in Yogurt . Preparing a Blood Slide and observing Blood: After reviewing the section of the manual

S. degree (1988) and Ph.D. (2004), joined the faculty at Gallaudet as a teaching assistant and retired as a full professor of microbiology in 2013. Throughout my career at Gallaudet I received excellent peer evaluations and student evaluations. I was aware of the pressure associated with working full time and going to school full time. Thus, I catered to the needs of the working
