Document Summary
Plasticity/determination malleability of the mind changing the ways we see and understand microbiology and the environment important in antibiotic resistance putting two di erent parts of animals together. Horizontal gene transfer gaining genes a di erent way that isn"t from mom/dad cell can gain it when gene of a other cell dies conjugation/transfer. Virulence resistance found in bacteria may survive and continue -- natural selection ability to produce disease we use antibiotics to stop this spread overuse of antibiotics vs vaccines antibiotic resistance. E ux pump bacteria gets dna info to create enzymes that break down antibiotics tetracycline attacks ribosomes, so doesn"t a ect gram pos or neg bacteria more pumps out antibiotic resistance when e ux > in ux, antibiotics stop working. Nosocomial infection hospital acquired infection usually untreatable hope immune system recovers. Can traits passed horizontally between di erent bacteria then be passed on vertically by cell division? preventative medicine. Lecture 5 prophylaxis non therapeutic uses of antibiotics.
