Streb B was the cause of my 5-dayold son's meningitis. It is found vaginally in some women, so during delivery it could be passed on to the baby. Strep B can also cause other very serious bacterial infections in newborns. In the US. doctors swab all expectant mums as part of the childbirth routine. Unfortunately that's not the case in Britain, but thankfully my son was diagnosed swiftly and made a full recovery.
Bacterical Meningitis refers to the condition where the meninges, or outer membrane of the brain and spinal cord, are inflamed due to a bacterical infection. As such, it can potentially be caused by a number of different pathogens. However, the most common bacteria involved in the developed world are Streptococcus pnuemoniae and Neisseria meningitidis.Other culprits indentified in bacterical meningitis case have included Listeria monosytogenes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus agalactiae, and Haemophilus influenzae as well.Also keep in mind, bacterial meningitis is not an isolated illness, but is often a sign of a systemic bacterial infection - an infection that has spread throughout the entire body. An infection that has progressed to the point on invading the cetral nervous system can result in septicemia and death if the patient does not receive prompt medical attention.
Electron microscope
we would use a light microscope
This is a type of meningitis caused by the bacteria spirillum serpens.
A compound microscope.
you could use any regular microscope that has magnification up to 400 but the best type of microscope to use would be an electron microscope if you could afford one
compound light microscope
HIV is too small to see with a light microscope. You will need an electron microscope.
Meningitis is most often caused by bacteria, but also can be a viral meningitis or, rarely, caused by a fungus.
scanning electron microscope
SARS is a virus, requiring an electron microscope to be seen.
