Summary Introduction

To review:

The experimental design for the analysis of digestive tract of the newborn chicks, in such a way to eliminate the possibility of salmmonella infection in digestive tract of newborn chicks.

Introduction:

The gut microbial community and integrity of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) play important roles in absorption of nutrients, immunity development and resistance from the disease. The changes in the microbial community of chicken may leads to the adverse effects on productivity, feed efficiency and health of the chicken. Thus the microbiome research is essential for the improvement of poultry GI microbiome.

In 1928, British bacteriologist Alexander Fleming made an accidental discovery. He noticed that a fungus had contaminated one of the agar plates he had streaked with a bacterial species to be studied. The fungus prevented the bacteria from growing in the immediate area surrounding the fungus. Upon further investigation, Fleming found that the fungus produced a substance that was the agent responsible for killing the bacteria. He called this substance penicillin. Given this information, which statement best explains why Fleming's discovery is relevant to the general public today? O Fleming's attention to detail diverted his efforts to investigate bacteria and likely robbed humanity of important discoveries that he would have otherwise made. Fleming's sloppiness in the lab serves as a reminder to all researchers that sterile technique is critical to preventing unwanted fungal growth on bacterial plates. Fleming's discovery enabled the development of chemical substances as antibiotics to…
Consumers are advised to avoid stuffing a turkey the night before cooking (where the stuffing would be made on the stove and then placed in the turkey), even though the turkey is refrigerated. A homemaker questions this advice and points out that the bacteria of human disease grow mainly at warm temperatures, not in the refrigerator. What explanation might you offer to counter this argument?
When a hospital acquired infection occurs due to the transmission of bacteria from one person, to another person, it is referred to as a ....
