The Microbes are known as organisms the 3 focal ones are

Bacteria - eg. salmonella, Diarrhoeal, shigellae and more they are common diseases u can find in bacterial water

Fungus - this causes athletes foot which is rather disgusting, it infects your feet, it can happen by sharing same towel with an infected person AND it makes moulds you see in expired food.

Virus - these microbes spread and they are like HIV/AIDS, they only infect living organisms the cells, rabies, influenza (the flu), cough but the difference is HIV can kill you

What are the two main categories of disease that microbes can deliver?

The two main categories of disease that microbes can deliver are infectious diseases, caused by pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, and parasites, and non-infectious diseases, caused by factors such as toxins produced by microbes or the body's immune response to the microbe.


What are the different classes of microbes?

Microbes can be classified into six main groups: bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa, algae, and archaea. Each group has distinct characteristics and includes various species that play important roles in ecosystems and human health.


How do i calculate Biologic log reduction?

Microbial load (cfu/g or cfu/ml) can be expressed as log10. So, if you have 100,000 microbes that is 5 log, 10,000 microbes is 4 log, 1,000 is 3 log, 100 microbes is 2 log and 10 microbes is 1 log. Now, if you went from 100,000 microbes cfu/g to 10,000 microbes cfu/g that would be a 1 log reduction (5 - 4 log). If you went from 100,000 to 32,000 that would be a 0.5 log reduction (5 - 4.5 log) and so on. I hope this helps St John Hall


What can microbes do?

There are both harmful and useful microbes. Harmful microbes like bacteria,virus and fungus can cause diseases while some useful microbes like bacteria can help in fermentation process like the yeast or as food like mushroom and many lacobacillus microbes that help in producing vitamins and in synthesis of food.Many microbes help produce antibiotic medicines. Microbes like algae are edible or help by photosynthesis to maintain the CO2 -O2 balance in the environment.


What are tow main microbes that cause disease?

TB and syphilis are both caused by bacteria.We know that microbes such as harmful bacterium and viruses are responsible for diseases.Tuberculosis is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis and syphilis is caused by Treponema pallidium,a spirochaete.The special character about M.tuberculosis is that it is neither gram+ve or gram-ve bacterium,since it does not retain any stain due to a waxy layer with high lipid content.

2 main microbes involved in decay?

Two main microbes involved in decay are bacteria and fungi. Bacteria break down organic matter by releasing enzymes that break down complex molecules into simple compounds. Fungi, such as molds and yeast, also play a significant role in decomposing organic material by secreting enzymes to break down organic matter.
