Bacteria can help fruit growers control fire blight 7-11-97 By Joe Marks 541-737-3380 SOURCE: Ken Johnson 541-737-5249 CORVALLIS - A mix of "good" bacteria and chemicals looks like the best bet to control fire blight, a disease that kills pear and apple trees in a single season. Oregon State University plant pathologist Ken Johnson said experiments with two kinds of commercially available bacterial strains showed each is about 60 percent effective as a biological control of fire blight. ...

When the antibiotics quit working... Overuse antibiotics and bacteria can become resistant to them. But could use of household disinfectants cause the same problem? That's what a New Jersey high school student suspects. [Posted May 1, 1997] Is cleaner always better? How bad is the problem? Just how do microbes beat antibiotics? Tuberculosis: ancient disease returns. Can medicine cope? OK, it's a problem. Got any nifty fixes? There are 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 documents. Glossary | Bibliography | Credits | Search

GRAM STAINING Who could have guessed that a staining procedure devised more than a century ago would still serve as one of the most widespread methods of bacterial classification? Microbiologists of this high-tech age are still indebted to Danish physician Christian Gram, who invented the gram-staining method in 1884. To gram stain, an investigator smears a sample of bacteria on a slide, soaks it in a violet dye and then treats it with iodine. The slide is then rinsed with alcohol and counters ...

Microbial Diversity Course 1997, MBL, Woods Hole Cyanobacteria Cyanobacteria form oxigen during photosynthesis. It is thought that it was these bacteria that were responsible for the first appearance of significant amounts of oxigen on earth about 2.3 billion years ago. Today, many different forms and shapes of cyanobacteria are known. In environmental samples cyanobacteria are easily recognized by light microsopy. If illuminated with green light, they will show a bright red autofluoresce ...

LabWork Pink Bugs, Purple Bugs In 1884, Hans Christian Gram, a Danish doctor working in Berlin, accidentally stumbled on a method which still forms the basis for the identification of bacteria. While examining lung tissue from patients who had died of pneumonia, he discovered that certain stains were preferentially taken up and retained by bacterial cells. Over the course of the next few years, Gram developed a staining procedure which divided almost all bacteria into two large groups ...

The Rise of Antibiotic-Resistant Infections by Ricki Lewis, Ph.D. When penicillin became widely available during the second world war, it was a medical miracle, rapidly vanquishing the biggest wartime killer--infected wounds. Discovered initially by a French medical student, Ernest Duchesne, in 1896, and then rediscovered by Scottish physician Alexander Fleming in 1928, the product of the soil mold Penicillium crippled many types of disease-causing bacteria. But just four years afte ...
