∙ 13y agoWhen pathogenic leptospires enter a host, they will initially be in the bloodstream and in this environment they find optimal conditions for growth. When the growth increases rapidly an illness can occur and potentially cause disease.

Who developed postulates to demonstrate that microorganisms caused disease?
Koch developed the Koch Postulates, which, if proven, demonstrate that a given microbe causes a disease. (see related link). Girolamo Fracastoro proposed epidemic diseases are caused by transferable seed-like entities that transmit infection by direct or indirect contact. Agostino Bassi was the first person to prove that a disease was caused by a microorganism.
What Factors known to be related to a disease but not proven to be causal are called?
risk factor?
How can dwarfism be prevented?
It is not possible to prevent dwarfism because most types are caused by genetic conditions. The most common form is called achondroplasia in which a parent passes on a mutated copy of the gene that causes this disorder to an offspring.

Is multiple sclerosis caused by spirochetes?
No. It is an autoimmune disease. The body's defenses are attacking the body instead of what is considered to be foreign. A variety of viruses have been linked to MS, including Epstein-Barr, the virus that causes infectious mononucleosis but the link is not been proven. A spirochete is not a virus but a type of bacteria.

What scientist's experiments led to a theory that proposed microorganisms cause disease?
Not all diseases are caused by microbes. The theory of one microbe causing one disease was proven long ago. We know now that it is more complex that that now. To prove this, see what microbes will grow from each person who has a similar disease and if these microbes are the same microbe, this microbe caused this disease. However, the proof would need thousands of cases to "cement" the cause.
What can be found in Yellowstone thermal pools that has proven to be very beneficial to humans?

What are the organisms of tuberculosis?
Tuberculosis or TB is caused by acid fast bacteria (AFB) belonging to the genus Mycobacterium. In human TB is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis species and in cattles by Mycobacterium bovis. Both these species differ in only one aminoacid at position 57 (His in Mycobacterium bovis) which elicits difference in the response to the drug administered. This disease is treated using anti-tuberculosis drugs - rifampicin, isoniasid, ethambutol and pyrazinamide. In these drugs, pyrazinamide is a special drug in that it is the only available drug in the market with proven efficiency which acts on semi dormant bacteria. Other Mycobacterium species Mycobacterium leprae causes leprosy.

What are some positive things about a microscope?
It shows us, through means of zooming in very much, little organisms. Cells, bacteria and viruses are shown with a microscope as well. But the most positive thing is that it has proven to people (1800) that the germ theory of disease really was true by means of showing proof that bacteria and viruses really are 'existing'.
What was proven by the work of Louis Pasteur during the Industrial Revolution?
