Bacterial Vaginosis
presence of a cell wall
Bacterial contamination will cause no effects if the sample is tested directly after collection. However, if the sample is allowed to sit, bacteria will multiply and raise the urine pH. Urine pH above 8 is abnormal.
Yes
Living bacteria establish a presence in the body of a living animal.
Factors that inhibit the size of a bacterial colony include limited nutrients, competition with other bacterial species for resources, presence of toxins or unfavorable environmental conditions (such as extreme pH or temperature), and the presence of bacteriophages or other predators that can reduce the bacterial population.
melanocyte
The presence of a spore in a vegetative bacterial cell suggests that the organism belongs to the genus Bacillus or Clostridium. These genera are known for their ability to form endospores as a survival mechanism in response to harsh environmental conditions.
A spectrophotometer can be used to measure bacterial growth based on turbidity. It detects changes in light absorbance caused by the presence of bacteria in a liquid culture, with higher turbidity indicating more bacterial growth.
One characteristic that refers to a Savannah biome but not a temperate prairie biome is the presence of scattered trees, particularly Acacia trees in African savannahs. This is a distinguishing feature as temperate prairies typically have a more continuous grassland without scattered trees.
No, the skin is only capable of producing vitamin D in the presence of sunlight.
no, neutrophils are a type of white blood cell which fights infection, primarily bacterial infection. A high neutrophil count can therefore suggest the presence of a bacterial infection but may point to other things
