Clinical application: A 44-year-old man with HIV is receiving antibiotics through a intravenous
catheter. The antibiotics are to help treat a kidney infection. The patient develops a fever.
Subsequent cultures from the patient's blood, the needle tip, and from the insertion site all show
growth of an organism with large oval-shaped cells. The cells reproduce by budding.
(a) What is your guess about the identity of the pathogen?
(b) How do you think the antibiotics may have contributed to this outcome?
(c) What do you think the portal of entry was for this pathogen?
Disrobe laboratory method Western Blot used to evaluate the immune response, describe how it works in detail, Also, please provide at least one pathogen your method of analysis is used to detect.
What advantage(s) does nucleic acid amplification have overstandard culture methods for identification of microorganisms?What are the disadvantages?

Here is a description of the Gram stain, including the principle, procedure, and results. Below is an illustration of the Gram stain protocol. Please describe the step that is performed at each stage in the box. For example, what is the reagent being used? At the right of each step, you should explain the purpose of that action.

You subject two batches of the same bacteria type to different environmental growth conditions. One batch is grown at pH 2, while the other is grown at pH 7. All other environmental parameters are kept identical between the two batches. You then collect their proteins and run a Western blot using an antibody that binds to a proton efflux pump protein (which actively expends energy to pump protons out of a cell). How would you characterize the information obtained in this experiment? What does it tell you, and why is that potentially valuable information?arrow_forward

It would be nice if you could highlight the important points. You can use them in a figure or diagram to explain. thank you and hava a nice day :) Article: Interference with Cellular Uptake, Immobilization, and Inactivation of the Virus Outside of the Host Cell Nanomaterials can be synthesized with a high specific surface area of a few hundred square meters per gram. Therefore, dependent on the surface properties, nanomaterials efficiently adsorb biomolecules and form a so-called biomolecular corona. This passive, nontargeted adsorption might be utilized to bind viruses, provided that the selected nanomaterial is relatively biocompatible. Viral surface proteins are often modified by sugar moieties or encompass positively charged amino acid patches that bind to lectins or glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) of heparan sulfate…arrow_forwardEscherichia coli Mycobacterium phlei Bacillus Micrococcus subtilis luteus A B Figure 1: Agar Slant Cultures of Bacteria (Gary E.
