a bacteriologist named Christian Gram created a test that could determine if a bacterium had a thick, mesh-like surrounding cell membrane called peptidoglycan, which is composed of sugars and amino acids. Bacteria with thick peptidoglycan are called gram positive. If the peptidoglycan ...

Phylum: Firmicutes-Phylum Firmicutes consists of a diverse group of organisms most of which are Gram-positive species. However, some, like members of class Negativicutes, have been shown to be Gram-negative. Together withphylum Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes makes up about 98 percent of gut bacteria....
What colors do gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria stain? The amino acid lysine has the formula H2N(CH2)4CH(NH2)COOH. Which functional group is the cause of its basic properties? a) OH b) CO c) NH2 d) CH2 What functional group gives ...
Astute microbiology and pathology tests are necessary to make an early diagnosis and prevent invasive surgery as the organism is a slow growing anaerobic bacteria. Excellent clinical and radiologic response were noted in our case following treatment with chest wall drainage and antibiotics thus avoiding...
Bacteriophages (phage) are a group of viruses that infect bacteria. To do this, the virus first binds to specific receptors located on the host cell surface. Here, the virus/phage may bind to the proteins of lipopolysaccharides located on the outer membrane (of Gram-positive bacteria). ...
Often these diseases damage cells called rods and cones in the retina. Rods help you see in low light. Cones give you high-resolution central vision and color vision. There are many types of inherited retinal dystrophy (IRD). Here are the most common: ...
(which Emmenthal does) and therefore has no or few small holes. The cheese is formed into wheels, and the pressed wheels are soaked in a salt brine and smeared with a mixture of yeast and coryneform bacteria (gram-positive rods). The wheels are then placed in a cellar on red pine ...
Carbapenems are a class of antibiotics that are often used for treatment of Gram-negative bacteria producing extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL) [8]. Carbapenemase-producing K. pneumoniae (KPC) and their carbapenemase are classified as class-A, according to Ambler classification of beta-...
