Detection of escherichia coli in water2
The document presents information on the detection of Escherichia coli (E. coli) in water. It discusses how E. coli was first recognized as a cause of illness, describes the types of E. coli and their symptoms. It then details the method used for detection, which involves filtering, concentrating, and using immunomagnetic separation and ATP bioluminescence to quantify E. coli levels. The detection limit of the method is around 20 CFU/100mL.
Epizootic Ulcerative Syndrome
EUS is an infection of freshwater and estuarine fish caused by the oomycete fungi Aphanomyces invadans. It is an epizootic disease affecting many fish in an area simultaneously. EUS causes ulceration of the skin and erosion of tissue, particularly on the tail and head. Advanced cases show necrosis in internal organs. Control involves stopping water flow, removing infected fish, applying lime or calcium hydroxide to raise pH, and introducing fresh water after 3 weeks. CIFA has also developed a medicine called CIFAX to treat and prevent EUS.
Enterotoxemia ppt
Enterotoxemia, also known as overeating disease or pulpy kidney disease, is caused by toxins produced by Clostridium perfringens bacteria in the intestines of small ruminants. The bacteria normally live harmlessly in the gut but can multiply rapidly under certain conditions, releasing toxins that cause inflammation of the intestines and blood vessels. Affected animals may show sudden nervous system signs and death, or gastrointestinal signs like diarrhea before death. Post-mortem examination reveals kidney and lung damage. Treatment focuses on supportive care but vaccination and careful feeding strategies are most effective for prevention.

Genomic epidemiology of Campylobacter jejuni
This document discusses genomic epidemiology of Campylobacter jejuni. It summarizes that whole genome sequencing has improved understanding of Campylobacter infections in several ways: 1) It has shown genetic variation within outbreaks can be small (1-2 single nucleotide variants); 2) Genome analysis of point-source outbreaks has found differences of 1-23 alleles between outbreak isolates; 3) Genomics has helped discover diffuse Campylobacter outbreaks with genetically closely related isolates.
fungal disease in fishes
Fungal diseases can seriously impact fish populations. Three common fungal diseases are:
1. Saprolegniasis is caused by Saprolegnia fungi and is characterized by cotton-like fungal growths on the skin, gills, or eyes of fish. It can spread rapidly between fish and cause death.
2. Branchiomycosis (gill rot) infects gill tissues and is caused by Branchiomyces fungi. Infected fish have difficulty breathing and their gills may appear red.
3. Ichthyophonosis causes rough skin and white lesions inside the body and is caused by Ichthyophonus fungi. More severe infections result in organ
Blind mountain climbing: design process
Nathan Kane discusses his process for UI design and how to get input from various experts. He advocates for a mixture of instinct and input in the design process. Input comes from consulting experts like product managers, engineers, other designers, data analysts, senior leaders, customers, and real usage data. Instinct comes from the designer's experience, education, and gut feelings. The best time to get input varies - more input is needed early to define problems, while later refinement relies more on instinct. The designer's role is deciding when to trust instinct versus seeking input from experts. The advice is to frame challenges, not solutions, and understand design is imperfect and iterative.

common nematode pathogens.pptx
Nematodes are invertebrate roundworms that inhabit marine, freshwater, and terrestrial environments. They comprise the phylum Nematoda (or Nemata) which includes parasites of plants and of animals, including humans, as well as species that feed on bacteria, fungi, algae, and on other nematodes. Four out of every five multicellular animals on the planet are nematodes (Platt, 1994). Cobb (1914) calculated that if the nematodes resident in a single acre of soil near San Antonio, Texas, USA, were to proceed in head-to-tail procession to Washington D.C., some 2000 miles away, the first nematode would reach Washington before the rear of the procession left San Antonio!

The majority of nematodes are microscopic, averaging less than a millimeter in length, but some of the animal parasites are quite large and readily visible to the naked eye. The animal and plant parasites are of direct importance in agriculture, the environment, and in human health; however, most nematodes in the environment are not parasites. Nematodes that feed on other organisms are important participants in the cycling of minerals and nutrients in the ecosystem that is fundamental to other biological activity. Some of these nematodes may have major roles in decomposition, including biodegradation of toxic compounds. In fact, the incidence of certain nematode species is sometimes used as an indicator of environmental quality. Insect-parasitic nematodes can be of importance in regulating insect populations, and are being used in the biological control of insect pests.
The developmental biology of one nematode species, Caenorhabditis elegans, is better characterized than that of any other multicellular organism. C. elegans is studied as a model system in molecular and developmental biology, and is providing insights into many other areas of biology and medicine.

This document provides an overview of clinical parasitology and classifications of human parasites. It discusses nematodes (roundworms), cestodes (tapeworms), trematodes (flukes), and protozoa. For nematodes, it describes key intestinal roundworms like Ascaris lumbricoides and Enterobius vermicularis, as well as tissue/blood nematodes such as filarial worms. It also discusses cestodes like Taenia solium and Diphyllobothrium latum, and provides brief summaries of parasites' life cycles, symptoms, and treatments.
Campylobacteriosis
Campylobacteriosis and swine erysipelas are bacterial diseases that affect livestock. Campylobacteriosis, also known as vibriosis, is caused by Campylobacter fetus bacteria and causes infertility in cattle. Swine erysipelas is caused by Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae bacteria and results in skin lesions and arthritis in pigs. Both diseases are transmitted through the fecal-oral route or contact with infected animals/contaminated environments. Clinical signs include abortions, diarrhea, skin lesions, and joint inflammation. Diagnosis involves isolating the bacteria from samples and serological tests. Treatment consists of antibiotics and vaccines are used to prevent outbreaks.
NEMATODES.pptx
Nematodes are roundworms that belong to the phylum Nematoda and include many parasitic species. They have thread-like unsegmented bodies and can infect humans through the skin or orally. Common nematode infections in humans are ascariasis caused by Ascaris lumbricoides, trichuriasis caused by Trichuris trichiura, and hookworm infections caused by Ancylostoma duodenale and Necator americanus. These are diagnosed by finding eggs in stool samples under a microscope. They are treated with anthelmintic medications like mebendazole or albendazole.
Chapter 15-NEMATODES(SHAYNE SUNICO).pptx
Nematodes are roundworms that can infect humans. They are divided into three groups based on where they reside in the body: intestinal nematodes, intestinal-tissue nematodes, and blood-tissue nematodes. Some common intestinal nematodes discussed in the document include Ascaris lumbricoides (the large roundworm), Enterobius vermicularis (pinworm), Trichuris trichiura (whipworm), Ancylostoma duodenale and Necator americanus (hookworms), and Strongyloides stercoralis (threadworm). Their life cycles, epidemiology, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment and prevention are described.

Nematodes are roundworms that can infect humans. They are divided into three groups based on their location in the body: intestinal nematodes, intestinal-tissue nematodes, and blood-tissue nematodes. Some common intestinal nematodes discussed in the document include Ascaris lumbricoides (the large roundworm), Enterobius vermicularis (pinworm), Trichuris trichiura (whipworm), Ancylostoma duodenale and Necator americanus (hookworms), and Strongyloides stercoralis (threadworm). These parasites have complex life cycles involving eggs, larvae, and adult worms that can cause diseases like ascariasis and hookworm infection
Ascaris lumbricoides & Trichuris trichiura
The document discusses several species of nematodes (roundworms) that can infect humans, including their morphology, life cycles, and epidemiology. It focuses on two specific species: Ascaris lumbricoides (the large intestinal roundworm) and Trichuris trichiura (the whipworm). A. lumbricoides eggs are rounder when fertilized while T. trichiura eggs have a barrel shape with hyaline plugs at each end. Both species have complex life cycles involving egg embryonation in soil before infecting a new host. A. lumbricoides and T. trichiura remain endemic in many tropical areas and are among the most common intestinal parasites worldwide.
Ascariasis
This document summarizes ascariasis, a parasitic disease caused by the roundworm Ascaris lumbricoides. It affects the small intestine and is transmitted through contaminated food or water. The roundworm lives in the intestines but can migrate to the lungs, causing symptoms like coughing or shortness of breath. It completes its life cycle in soil, with eggs passed in feces and ingested by another host. Over 1 billion people are infected worldwide, most commonly children in tropical areas with poor sanitation.

chlorine petillos
Chlorine is a toxic halogen gas discovered in 1774 that is important for water purification. It can cause respiratory issues. Asthmatic bronchitis is an inflammatory airway condition that causes the airways to narrow. Symptoms include inflamed and mucus-filled bronchial tubes, difficulty breathing, and wheezing. Prevention focuses on avoiding irritants and air pollution. Treatment may include antibiotics for bacterial infections, staying hydrated, using a vaporizer, cough suppressants, and natural remedies.
phthalate limos
Phthalates are chemicals used mainly as plasticizers added to plastics in many household and personal care products. They pose health risks, especially to infants and toddlers who mouth toys and other items. Phthalate exposure has been linked to reproductive harm, developmental issues, cancer, and hormone disruption. Studies in rats show phthalates can damage organs and skeletal structure during development. Prenatal exposure to phthalates has also been associated with neurological conditions like ADHD and ODD in humans.
scurvy ~cabigas
Scurvy is a disease caused by vitamin C deficiency. It is characterized by symptoms like bleeding gums, loose teeth, and easy bruising. Scurvy develops when someone does not consume enough vitamin C from foods like citrus fruits, berries, peppers, potatoes, and leafy greens. Treatment involves supplementing the diet with vitamin C to reverse the symptoms.
alcohol terana
Alcohol is created through the fermentation of grains, fruits, or vegetables by yeast or bacteria. Fetal alcohol syndrome is a pattern of mental and physical defects in a fetus associated with high levels of alcohol consumption during pregnancy. Signs and symptoms of fetal alcohol syndrome include growth deficiency, distinctive facial features, and central nervous system damage. Dental care for patients with fetal alcohol syndrome requires recognition of the condition and consultation with the patient's physician to understand systemic complications. While there is no cure for fetal alcohol syndrome, treatment aims to address the permanent disabilities caused by central nervous system damage.
sulfur dioxide ~ atienza
Sulfur dioxide is a toxic gas that is released by volcanoes and industrial processes like burning coal and oil. It can cause a lung disease called bronchiolitis obliterans when inhaled, leading to scarring and narrowing of the small airways over time. Diagnosis involves lung function tests showing obstruction. The disease has no cure and may require a lung transplant for severe cases. Treatment includes steroids.
cigarette smoking ~ launico
This document discusses the negative health effects of smoking cigarettes. It states that smoking can cause various cancers like lung cancer and kidney cancer as well as pulmonary and cardiovascular diseases. It also discusses the dental and oral health issues caused by smoking like oral cancers, periodontal disease, and oral precancerous lesions. Secondhand smoke is also highlighted as causing disease and premature death in both children and adults exposed to it. Treatment options depend on the severity and extent of the condition caused by smoking.
carbon monoxide padua
Carbon monoxide is an odorless, tasteless, and colorless gas known as the "silent killer" that is produced by common household appliances when not properly ventilated. Carbon monoxide poisoning occurs after enough inhalation of carbon monoxide and initial treatment involves immediately removing the person from exposure and administering oxygen via mask to shorten the half life of carbon monoxide in the body. Possible long term effects of carbon monoxide poisoning include anoxia that could affect the teeth, leaving them with a pink discoloration.
candida albicans ~ manglo
Candida albicans is a yeast that commonly lives in the human gut but can cause infections in moist areas of the body like the mouth or vagina. Oral thrush, also known as oral candidiasis, is a fungal infection in the mouth caused by Candida that presents as white lesions on the tongue, cheeks, and roof of the mouth. Symptoms include creamy white patches with a cottage cheese-like appearance and a cottony feeling in the mouth. Treatment involves using antifungal medication like nystatin or fluconazole by swishing in the mouth. Maintaining good oral hygiene and a healthy diet can help prevent recurrent oral thrush.
streptococcus razon
Streptococcus bacteria can cause various infections in humans including skin infections, strep throat, sinus infections, and pneumonia. They appear in chains and are found on the skin, in the oral cavity, and respiratory tract. Cellulitis is a localized skin infection caused by streptococcus bacteria invading through a cut or scrape, causing redness, swelling, and pain in the deepest skin layers, especially on the face or legs. Signs include fever, chills, and general illness. While antibiotics are usually effective, abscesses also require drainage to resolve regardless of the specific bacteria.
rickets . serrano
Rickets is a disorder caused by a lack of vitamin D, calcium, or phosphate that leads to softening and weakening of bones. There are three main types: nutritional rickets caused by vitamin D deficiency; hypophosphatemic rickets caused by low phosphate levels; and renal rickets caused by kidney disorders. Rickets can be prevented by consuming enough calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin D in the diet, though some may need supplements. Treatment involves addressing the underlying cause of the vitamin or mineral deficiency.
cadmium ~ juan
Cadmium is a soft metal that is a byproduct of zinc production. It can cause health issues when inhaled or ingested, as the body absorbs it and stores it in organs like the liver and kidneys. Dental amalgam fillings contain cadmium, which can stain teeth and impact periodontal health over time. Cadmium poisoning was responsible for the Itai-itai disease that affected women working in battery factories in Japan, causing bone and kidney problems. Mild cases are treated with supplements, while more severe cases require hospitalization, supplements, and potentially chelation therapy or dialysis.

Lead poisoning occurs when lead is ingested or inhaled and can damage the brain, nerves, and other organs. It can be acute from a large amount over a short period or chronic from small amounts over a longer time. Symptoms in adults include headaches and mood disorders while symptoms in children include abdominal pain and learning difficulties. Treatment involves diagnosis with a blood test and preventing further lead exposure through changes at home or work. Lead affects multiple organ systems like the heart, nerves, and kidneys. It also increases risks of dental issues like cheilitis.
2. mercury ~ mendoza
Mercury is a liquid metal that can be toxic in high amounts. It occurs naturally and is used in things like dental fillings and thermometers. Chronic mercury poisoning can cause psychological, digestive, neurological, and other health problems. Diagnosis involves testing urine levels. Treatment focuses on removing mercury exposure sources and chelation therapy. While mercury fillings are generally considered safe, some report health issues from dental amalgam and prefer removal and detoxification. More research continues on any potential effects, especially for young children.
