What did Frederick discover?
Frederick Griffiths observed natural transformation for the first time, while he was searching for the pneumonia vaccine. He discovered that mixing a heat killed pathogenic strain of bacteria with a living nonpathogenic strain converted some cells into the pathogenic form.

Is Mycobacterium Smegmatis a spore former?

What does Mixed nonpathogenic flora isolatedin urinee culturemean?
It means you probably didn't take the urine sample in the perfect way ;) The lab found bacteria in your urin, but all were bacteria that are supposed to be around your genitalia or on your skin. Most likely, the sample you provided was not a midstream sample or cathererised, or it got contaminated on the way. In short: based on this sample, there is no evidence that you have a bladder infection.
What is Micrococcus sedentarius?
Micrococcus sedentarius is a species of spherical, Gram-positive bacteria that is commonly found in soil, dust, and water sources. It is known for its ability to produce a yellow pigment called sedentine. Micrococcus sedentarius is generally considered nonpathogenic to humans and is often used in laboratory studies for its unique physiological characteristics.
Is measles infectious or non infectious?
Measles are infact pathogenic. As it is an infectious disease and the pathogens are infectious viruses and the leucocytes/leukocytes and phagocytes (white blood cells) can't cope with them.
What positive role may be played by the nonpathogenic streptococci normally found between the teeth and in the gingival crevice?
The normal flora occupy available colonization sites which makes it more difficult for other microorganisms (nonindigenous species) to become established. Also, the oral flora contribute to host nutrition through the synthesis of vitamins, and they contribute to immunity by inducing low levels of circulating and secretory antibodies that may cross react with pathogens. Finally, the oral bacteria exert microbial antagonism against nonindigenous species by production of inhibitory substances such as fatty acids, peroxides and bacteriocins.
