Why does multi-drug resistance occur? Explain why it is often possible to smell (or taste ) medications, such as eye drops, that have been placed into the eyes. Why is acid-alcohol rather than ethyl alcohol used
How does resistance to antibiotics occur in bacteria? How might antibiotic resistance be prevented? Why is penicillin effective in killing most bacteria? What is antibiotic resistance and how does it arrive in bacteria? Describe why the overuse of antibiotics to treat one bacterial infection sometimes...
Amid the alarm being raised about resistance, it is important to note that antimicrobial resistance is not total and universal. Even though certain important pathogens are increasingly resistant to some or all clinically used antibiotics, it should not be expected that all antibiotics everywhere will ...
Thus, forced acceptances obviously occur in nature in some small host species of even evicting (highly virulent) brood parasites suggesting that the puncture resistance hypothesis is not irrelevant for such systems, as previously thought (Spaw and Rohwer, 1987; Davies, 2000). Information on the va...
Meanwhile, the intracellular protein oxidation may also occur because of enhanced cell wall permeability. Based on the collective results of MDA, ONPG, and protein measurements, the following scenarios are plausible: first, an external attack is validated, followed by an increase in cell wall ...
3 Overdiagnosis is also found to occur with prostate cancer, leading to overtreatment.4 The same will be true of other medical conditions when the extra step of taking the base rate of that condition into account is not properly followed. We will explain Bayes' rule and its importance with ...
Each of the four casein proteins found in dairy milk has dozens of different genetic variants that occur in different cow breeds, not to mention goats, sheep, yaks, 74 | BIOCODER camels, water buffalos, and more. Many of these genetic variants are associated with different coagulation ...
In stress conditions imposed by the biofilm lifestyle (basic morphological condition of chronic infection) or repeated exposure to sublethal doses of antibiotic, bacteria occur frequently hypermutation. . The phenomenon begins immediately when the cell reaches the surface: genes that encode flagelar ...
Some anti-fungal medication can damage the patients own tissues. Why doesn't this problem occur with antibiotics? Explain. What causes a fungal infection in the brain? Why are latent viral infections hard to treat? How does tinea pedis infect the skin?
How does resistance to antibiotics occur in bacteria? Explain two mechanisms that antibiotic-resistant bacteria would be using to be resistant. What type of genomes do bacterial and archaeal organisms have? What are the industrial processes that use bacteria? Which of these...
