Meningitis Purulent and Aseptic

Meningitis: Purulent and Aseptic

Meningitis is an inflammation of the protective membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord, known as the meninges. It may be categorized into two primary types: purulent (bacterial) and aseptic (viral or other non-bacterial causes). Here’s an in-depth look at both. Purulent Meningitis (Bacterial Meningitis) Bacterial infections induce purulent meningitis, which results in pus collection […]

cDNA library Process of construction of cDNA library, Advantages and Disadvantages

cDNA library: Process of construction of cDNA library, Advantages and Disadvantages

A cDNA library is a collection of complementary DNA (cDNA) sequences generated from mRNA molecules isolated from a certain tissue or cell type. The cDNA represents the genes that were expressed in that tissue or cell during the mRNA extraction. cDNA Library A cDNA library is a collection of complementary DNA (cDNA) sequences produced from

Reproduction in Angiosperm and Reproductive structures

Reproduction in Angiosperm and Reproductive structures

Angiosperms, or blooming plants, reproduce using a complex process that includes both sexual and asexual systems. Angiosperm reproductive systems are highly specialized and optimized for pollination and seed development. The reproductive structures in angiosperms are highly specialized and adapted to facilitate pollination and seed development. Here’s an overview of the key aspects of angiosperm reproduction

E-cadherin signaling; role in cancer and signal pathways

E-cadherin signaling; role in cancer and signal pathways

E-cadherin (Epithelial cadherin) is a protein crucial for cell-cell adhesion in epithelial tissues. It plays a significant role in maintaining tissue architecture and cellular integrity. Disruptions in E-cadherin function can lead to pathological conditions, including cancer. E-cadherin signaling E-cadherin signaling is the cellular communication channel mediated by E-cadherin, a transmembrane protein required for cell-cell contact

Angiosperms Introduction, Characteristics and Structures

Angiosperms: Introduction, Characteristics and Structures

Angiosperms, or flowering plants, are the most diverse group of plants on Earth, comprising over 300,000 species. They dominate most terrestrial ecosystems and have a vast array of forms, ranging from tiny groundcovers to towering trees. Angiosperms are the biggest class of plants, distinguished by the development of flowers and seeds contained within a fruit.

Cushing syndrome: causes, types, clinical diagnosis and management

Cushing’s syndrome is a hormonal condition induced by chronic exposure to elevated cortisol levels. It can be caused by a variety of situations that enhance cortisol production, as well as the use of exogenous glucocorticoids. What is Cushing syndrome? Cushing’s syndrome is a condition induced by chronic exposure of the body’s tissues to high quantities

Puerperium physiological changes in reproductive system and other systems of the body after child birth

Puerperium: physiological changes in reproductive system and other systems of the body after child birth

Puerperium, or postpartum period, refers to the time after childbirth when the mother’s body undergoes significant physiological changes to revert to a non-pregnant state. This time usually lasts around six weeks. Here are the primary physiological changes in the reproductive and other body systems: Puerperium Puerperium, also known as the postpartum period, is the time

Isolation of antibiotic producing microorganisms and Determination of antimicrobial spectrum of isolates

Isolation of antibiotic producing microorganisms and Determination of antimicrobial spectrum of isolates

Isolation of antibiotic producing microorganisms entails collecting samples from various habitats, cultivating them on selective media, and selecting strains that suppress the growth of test pathogens, indicating antibiotic synthesis. Determine the antimicrobial spectrum of isolates, the isolated antibiotic-producing microorganisms are tested against a variety of pathogenic bacteria and fungi to assess the breadth and potency
