Broad host-range mini-Tnvectors facilitate integration of single-copy genes into bacterial chromosomes at a neutral, naturally evolved site. Here we present a protocol for employing the mini-Tnsystem in bacteria with singleTnsites, using the example. The procedure involves, first, cloning of the ...

Antibiotic resistance is a huge issue in medicine in science. Antibiotics are used to treat infections caused by bacteria and are generally very effective. In the wake of antibiotic resistance, treating bacterial infections has become much more compli...
Most drugs that kill bacteria cannot be used to treat viral infections. Explain why. What are some of the side effects of antimicrobial agents? Name an antibiotic often given for a fungal infection. How does this antibiotic work? Please elabo...
For example, chemicals used in disinfection can increase the formation of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and genes [49, 87]. Calls for greater understanding and management of ECs in drinking water have advanced understanding. But, most of this understanding is focused on the technical and to some...
After reading further into the topic, I found that this resistance is due to the production of enzymes which hydrolyse the lactam ring of the antibiotic used, rendering it useless in treating the infection. Upon researching this mechanism, I realised that studying biochemistry is the perfect way ...
Aside from sustainability, another topic I find fascinating is Pharmaceuticals, particularly the overdependence in antibiotics, which inspired my EPQ, entitled “How can we improve the Efficacy of Antibiotics in the future?” Within my research, I found that with the rise of antibiotic resistance, ...
Certainly, there are many other examples in which natural selection has been observed, from antibiotic resistance in bacteria to pesticide resistance in mammals and numerous insects, to heavy metal tolerance in many plants, to changes in beak shape in Galapagos finches, to the origin of new ...
Acid-fast staining is used to distinguish which of the following type of bacteria? a. Spirochetes b. Mycobacteria c. Gram-positive bacteria d. Bacillus e. Staphylococcus Choose one example of a bacterium or virus. a. What actions does...
