Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteria is found in two types: a type III-S (smooth) and type II-R (rough) strain. The smooth strain covers itself with a polysaccharide capsule that protects it from the host's immune system, resulting in the death of the host, while the II-R strain doesn't have that protective capsule and is defeated by the host's immune system.The smooth type has a "coat" that prevents it from attacks from the host's immune system and it is very virulent.
By using various molecular tools such as enzymes, vectors and host strain we can make clones.
This means that a bacteria may affect one or a few species such as humans and other primates making this a narrow host range. Or the bacteria could affect all mammals and affect a broad host range. Using family, genus, species or strain could cover both narrow or broad host range. Most of the time, it is at the species level.
An ergonomic keyboard is a computer keyboard designed with ergonomic considerations to minimize muscle strain and a host of related problems.
The S strain produces a capsule but the R strain does not
There are 6 vectors used to describe the strain field of an element. An equivalent strain is just a single numerical value used to represent the strain field.
strain has no unit
strain-to-failure
