| bacterial infection | <microbiology> Bacteria are group of micro-organisms that are a single cell approximately 1 micron in transverse diameter. Some bacteria cause disease in man, requiring treatment with an antibiotic. (27 Sep 1997) |
|---|---|
| bacterial interference | The condition in which colonization by one bacterial strain prevents colonization by another strain. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bacterial outer membrane proteins | Proteins isolated from the outer membrane of bacteria. (12 Dec 1998) |
| bacterial peliosis | A bacterial infection of haemorrhagic cysts of the liver, spleen, or lymph nodes, seen in immunocompromised persons, caused by Rochalimaea henselae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bacterial pericarditis | Pericarditis produced by bacterial infection. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bacterial physiology | Physiological processes and activities of bacteria. (12 Dec 1998) |
| bacterial plaque | In dentistry, a mass of filamentous microorganisms and large variety of smaller forms attached to the surface of a tooth which, depending on bacterial activity and environmental factors, may give rise to caries, calculus, or inflammatory changes in adjacent tissue. Synonym: dental plaque, mucous plaque, mucinous plaque. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bacterial pneumonia | Infection of the lung with any of a large variety of bacteria, especially Streptococcus pneumoniae(pneumococcus). (05 Mar 2000) |
| bacterial proteins | Proteins found in any species of bacterium. (12 Dec 1998) |
| bacterial toxin | Any intracellular or extracellular toxin formed in or elaborated by bacterial cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bacterial toxins | Toxic substances formed in or elaborated by bacteria; they are usually proteins with high molecular weight and antigenicity; some are used as antibiotics and some to skin test for the presence of or susceptibility to certain diseases. (12 Dec 1998) |
| bacterial transformation | <microbiology> A genetics lab procedure where bacteria are induced to accept and incorporate into their genome foreign pieces of cell-less, isolated DNA, often in the form of a plasmid. The DNA to be introduced usually contains a selectable marker so that the bacteria which successfully incorporate the DNA can be selected for. (09 Oct 1997) |
| bacterial translocation | The passage of viable bacteria from the gastrointestinal tract to extra-intestinal sites, such as the mesenteric lymph node complex, liver, spleen, kidney, and blood. Factors that promote bacterial translocation include overgrowth with gram-negative enteric bacilli, impaired host immune defenses, and injury to the intestinal mucosa resulting in increased intestinal permeability. These mechanisms can act in concert to promote synergistically the systemic spread of indigenous translocating bacteria to cause lethal sepsis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| bacterial transposition | <molecular biology> A short sequence of DNA (known as a transposon) which can change location on the bacterial genome (the sum total of all of the bacterium's DNA) and contains genes which code for proteins that enable it to change location. They are useful because they can also contain genes for other things, like antibiotic resistance, and because they can be introduced into a bacterial genome by a researcher. (09 Oct 1997) |
| bacterial typing techniques | Procedures for identifying types and strains of bacteria. The most frequently employed typing systems are bacteriophage typing and serotyping as well as bacteriocin typing and biotyping. (12 Dec 1998) |
