Antibiotics do not kill the SARS-CoV-2 virus, the virus causes COVID-19. Antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections. Azithromycin and other antibiotics are not recommended to treat COVID-19, unless they are being prescribed an antibiotic for a bacterial infection the patient currently has...
Salinity;salt concentration also affect bacterial growth by influencing homeostasis and enzymatic actions. Halophiles are organisms that have very high optimum ion concentration needed for growth. Light intensity; phototrophic bacteria require light for preparing food. Bacterial Diseases The bacteria that can...

Additionally, the need for a more complete understanding of disease circulation in natural populations has sparked the interest of many researchers who are now investigating those intrinsic factors affecting host–pathogen dynamics such as the host physiological and immunological status [8,9,10,11]. ...
Bacillus; biostimulant; plant growth; stress resilience; metabolomics1. Introduction Edaphic factors and genetics play a pivotal role in the growth and yield of crop plants [1]. Over the past decades, genetic engineering and plant breeding approaches have been employed to develop new cultivars with...
That’s because many aspects of modern life are hostile to the good gut microbes, and even encourage the growth of the bad ones. How Do You Know You Have Enough Good Bacteria? There are lots of reasons that you might struggle to have enough good bacteria in your system. ...
Understanding possible causes of cancer comes down to understanding the causes of gene and DNA mutations. Chemicals (like carcinogens), radiation, obesity, hormones, chronic inflammation, smoking, viruses, and a number of other factors have been found to be cancer causing. ...
2) could serve as indicators of acanthocephalan presence, although factors other than acanthocephalan infection can lead to dysbiosis (see below). In general, a decrease in bacterial community alpha diversity has been linked with an increase in stress (Rocca et al., 2018, Houtz et al., 2022...
Explain. How do bacterial cells reproduce? What do viruses do that make their replication completely different from that of bacteria? What are the factors influencing microbial growth (bacterial cells)? What are eukaryotic cells/bacteria, some of the diseases they cause, and their symptoms? What ...
