Concept explainers

Nutrient Growth Medium

It is a culture medium or nutrient broth for all kinds of microorganisms to grow properly and create their colony. This matrix provides support to increase the population of microbes through the method of cell proliferation. It is regarded as the food material for those organisms. It is a type of in vitro mechanism, in which the development of life is processed outside the host body. It can be solid, semi-solid, or liquid in nature. Different kinds of cells develop in different types of media.

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?

The trial involves grafting hMSCs intopatients suffering from interveterbral disc disease using a degradable polymer scaffold. You are going to 3Dprint a porous cylindrical scaffold that is 2 cm in radius and 1 cm in height (matching the dimensions of adegenerated disc). Assume a porosity of 50%. You will fill available volume of the scaffold with hMSCs at adensity of 1 million cells per cm3. Based on the data above, what starting number of cells will you use andhow long will it take you to get enough cells for the trial? Part2The trial is a failure (patients did not report any reduction in back pain). Your team wants to try againusing 85% hMSCs and 15% nucleus pulposus cells .…
