Negative
Dysentery is the disease name. The pathogen name is Shigella Dysenteriae.
When a gram stain is done on Shigella flexneri, the cells are light pink. This means that they are gram negative.
no because we like penish xD
Shigella is caused by a type of bacterium. Specifically, it is a genus of bacteria belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae. Shigella is known to cause shigellosis, an infectious disease characterized by diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps. There are four main species of Shigella, with Shigella dysenteriae, Shigella flexneri, Shigella boydii, and Shigella sonnei being the most common.
Shigella is not a product of invention but rather a genus of bacteria that was discovered. It was first identified in the early 20th century by Japanese bacteriologist Kiyoshi Shiga, after whom the bacterium Shigella dysenteriae was named. Shigella species are known to cause bacillary dysentery or shigellosis in humans.
Shigella Dysenterie is usually found in Undeveloped countries, most of the time when the weather is hot and dry. Malnutrition and contaminated food is one of the ways people are exposed to it.
shigella dysenteriae is commonly seen in contaminated water, food and also through sex,but mainly through water, and other resources. its a bacteria found in the water in more popular areas or refuge camps. it attacks the abdominal areas and there is currently no treatment but there is antibiotics to help ease the pain.
No, acid-fast bacteria do not stain gram-negative when subjected to the gram stain.
S. dysenteriae generally produces the most severe attacks, and S. sonnei the mildest attacks of shigellosis.
Gram stain
Gram Negative
Salmonella, Shigella, Yersinia, and Serratia are all gram-negative facultatively anaerobic rods.
