Bacteria are single-celled organisms that come in three main shapes - bacilli (rod-shaped), cocci (spherical), and spirilla (spiral-shaped). A single gram of soil contains over 2.5 billion bacteria, and there are more types of bacteria on Earth than all other living things combined. Bacteria reproduce through binary fission and do not have nuclei like eukaryotic cells. The two main kingdoms of bacteria are Eubacteria and Archaebacteria, which contain the oldest forms of life and inhabit a variety of extreme environments.
Best Practices for Preventing Laboratory-Acquired Infections in Teaching LabsTriumvirate Environmental
Since 1979, there have been 2,033 LAI’s, 37 deaths and counting. Infectious disease outbreaks, food or water-borne illnesses, and incidents involving the intentional release of hazardous agents are the major concerns in our world today. Laboratory-acquired infections (LAI’s) have occurred over the past several decades and have been involved in numerous laboratory environments, including teaching labs.

Vibrio cholera with other vibrio species are described in thispresentation along with their biochemical properties and laboratory diagnosis, A short slide on halophilic vibrios is also added
Klebsiella pneumoniae is a bacterium that normally lives inside the intestines of a human body. These common bacteria are usually harmless, that means it doesn’t cause disease in that area, but if Klebsiella pneumoniae moves to other areas of the body, it can cause a range of different illnesses.
Medical microbiology is the study of causative agents of infectious diseases of humans and their reactions to such infections. In other words it deals with etiology, pathogenesis, laboratory diagnosis, specific treatment and control of infection (immunization).

The process of grouping the organisms based on certain similarities such as physical characteristics is known as biological classification. Biological classification of a living world comprises all the five kingdom system With their development and drawback, in these slides elaborately kingdom Monera is represented .

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
