Pathogenic bacterium is one of the many types of flagellated bacteria, including the Salmonella bacterium and it causes diseases in both animals and humans. The organism moves by means of fine, threadlike projections called flagella. It multiplies quickly in the heyyyy.which can be transferred to humans through contaminated meat, eggs, and egg product.
Pathogenic bacteria are generally not present in normal biota of environment but are present in the area where they get situable temp. and pH range. Allthough many bacteria which recides on general body surface of human body are not pathogenic in mormal conditions like S. aureus but when it get the chance to enter inside the body it become pathogenic these kind of bacteria are also called oputunistic pathogens.
