Mycology

play a vital role in every form of life from plants to animals. There are many branches within the field of microbiology that are broken down into two groups; pure and applied. The study of pure microbiology includes six main branches; bacteriology, mycology, phycology, protozoology, virology, and parasitology (Maruthi, n.d.). This subset of microbiology is used for the purpose of acquiring a better understanding of these organisms. Applied microbiology includes an array of fields; with medical and industrial

The Clinical Laboratory in the Inpatient setting has evolved over the years. Electronic data and electronic medical records’ demand require medical documentation to be processed fast and accurate daily. I selected the Clinical Laboratory Department because the amount of data that is processed in these departments is impressive. I covered three main points in my report: (i) an overview of the department, (ii) the role of Health Informatics in the Clinical Laboratory, and (iii) the impact of the advances

Leighton Wireman PHBS 2901.01 Dr. Christoff 30 March 2016 Fluconazole Background/History Fluconazole is a white, hygroscopic, crystalline powder, and is an orally active bistriazole antifungal agent.1 The discovery of fluconazole was a milestone in the pharmaceutical industry because it was the first antifungal drug that could be used both orally for minor infections, and intravenously for serious systemic infections. The development and use of antifungals continues to become more of a necessity

Investigation of in vitro and in vivo antifungal activity of different plant acetonic extracts against fungal skin isolates ABSTRACT T he worldwide increase of multidrug resistance has impaired the current antimicrobial therapy, warranting the search for other alternatives.This study investigated the efficacy of using plant extracts; Lawsonia inermis L(Henna), Glycyrrhiza glabra L(licorice) and Rosmarinus officinalis L (Rosemary) as antifungal agents.Antifungal susceptibility test revealed that nystatin

CLINICAL OVERVIEW TEMPLATE (Onychomycosis) TERMINOLOGY CLINICAL CLARIFICATION  Onychomycosis is a fungal infection of the nail bed, matrix or plate. [1, 2]  It was historically referred to a non-dermatophytic infection of the nail but is now generally used as term to denote any fungal nail infection. [1] CLASSIFICATION  Onychomycosis is classified to several types characterized by clinical presentation, the route of invasion, or causing organism: o Distal subungual onychomycosis (DSO) is the

Some people use the name toadstool only when referring to poisonous mushrooms, but botanists make no such distinction. A general scientific term for fungi is mycota, from the Greek word for mushroom, mykes, and the study of these organisms is called mycology. Because they lack chlorophyll, fungi are unable to manufacture food out of the raw materials around them

INTRODUCTION In trying to determine what fabric does the best job in inhibiting the growth of bacteria, knowledge of bacteria, and thus microbiology is required in order to not only complete the experiment, but to actually understand why this may be important in a person 's everyday life. It may not seem to be, and it isn 't, the most monumental piece of research that could be conducted, but it is useful piece of information nonetheless. Diseases, while not as easily spread as they once were considering

A COMPARATIVE STUDY ON ENDOPOLYSACCHARIDES AND EXOPOLYSACCHARIDES PRODUCTION FROM SOME BASIDIOMYCETES WITH STUDYING THE ANTIOXIDANT AND ANTI-TUMOUR EFFECTS OF PLEUROTUS OSTREATUS MUSHROOM ABSTRACT: Edible mushrooms have attracted a great attention due to their nutritional, as well as medicinal properties. In the present study, different mushroom species were extracted partially purified and their endopolysaccharides (extracted from the fruiting bodies) as well as exopolysaccharides (extracted from

Information technology is a rapidly growing part of today's society. It affects everyone's life in many aspects. Every human endeavor is influenced by information technology and the increasing rate at which what it can perform includes. One area of human endeavor that information technology has greatly influenced is the practice of medicine, specifically veterinary medicine. Not only has veterinary medicine been influenced by information technology, it has also been enhanced by it. The degree to
