The strip was about a boy called Will who had three germs inside him ( Ugly Jack Bacteria, Jeremy Germ and Iris the Virus ), and they were constantly making Will ill, requiring many visits to the doctor.

Bacteria are vital in the recycling of nutrients, and many steps in nutrient cycles depend on these organisms.

Bacteria in a colony, numbering many times the population on Earth, exchange “ chemical tweets ” to synchronize their behavior.

Bacteria propel themselves with the aid of flagella in a process called chemotaxis, and a typical bacteria trajectory has many characteristics of a random walk.

Bacteria benefit from the reduced exposure to predators and competition from other bacterial species, the ample supply of nutrients and relative environmental stability inside the host.

Bacteria may travel dormant for an extended amount of time before colliding randomly with other planets or intermingling with protoplanetary disks.

* Biohazard Level 3: Bacteria and viruses that can cause severe to fatal disease in humans, but for which vaccines or other treatments exist, such as anthrax, West Nile virus, Venezuelan equine encephalitis, SARS virus, tuberculosis, typhus, Rift Valley fever, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, yellow fever, and malaria.

A phylogenetic tree, showing how Eukaryota and Archaea are more closely related to each other than to Bacteria, based on Cavalier-Smith's theory of bacterial evolution.

Bacteria use several systems to obtain nutrients from other organisms in the environments.

Bacteria can incorporate genes from other dead bacteria, exchange genes with living bacteria, and can exchange plasmids across species boundaries.

Bacteria have restriction enzymes, also called restriction endonucleases, which cleave double stranded DNA at specific points into fragments, which are then degraded further by other endonucleases.

His minimalistic photographs in the trilogy Ronde de Nuit, Docile Bodies, and Politics of Bacteria, picture the void of the other.

Bacteria can enter the bloodstream as a severe complication of infections ( like pneumonia or meningitis ), during surgery ( especially when involving mucous membranes such as the gastrointestinal tract ), or due to catheters and other foreign bodies entering the arteries or veins ( including intravenous drug abuse ).

Bacteria can also use the blood to spread to other parts of the body ( which is called hematogenous spread ), causing infections away from the original site of infection.

Extensively studied model organisms of virulent viruses include virus T4 and other T-even bacteriophages which infect Escherichia coli and a number of related Bacteria.

In addition, the molecular phylogenies of aaRSs are often not consistent with accepted organismal phylogenies, e. g. they violate the so-called canonical phylogenetic pattern shown by most other enzymes for the three domains of life-Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya.

Bacteria which produce only lactic acid during fermentation are homofermentative ; those that also produce lactic acid and other compounds such as carbon dioxide, alcohol, aldehydes and ketones are heterofermentative.

Bacteria typically enter the lung with inhalation, though they can reach the lung through the bloodstream if other parts of the body are infected.

They also appeared on the 1985 hardcore compilation Cleanse the Bacteria, in addition to numerous other compilations, such as Not So Quiet On the Western Front ( Alt.

Bacteria, maggots and other organisms that may have ingested some of the subject matter may have also ingested any toxic substance within it.

Bacteria in milk can come from sources other than the animal.

Bacteria in the biofilm community can actually generate various toxic compounds that interfere with the growth of other competing bacteria.

Bacteria and other single-celled organisms live in the termite digestive system and digest cellulose providing nutrition and energy for these termites.

The ATCC also has close working links with several other international culture collections, such as the UK's National Collection of Plant Pathogenic Bacteria ( NCPPB ), Landcare Research in New Zealand, the Collection Française de Bactéries Phytopathogènes ( CFBP, or Collection of Plant Pathogenic Bacteria ) in France, Belgian Co-ordinated Collections of Micro-organisms ( BCCM ), IBSF in Brazil, the Deutsche Sammlung von Mikroorganismen und Zellkulturen ( DSMZ, or German Collection of Microorganisms and Cell Cultures ), the Japanese Collection of Research Bioresources ( JCRB ), and others.

Textbooks generally begin with the three-domain system: Archaea ( originally Archaebacteria ); Bacteria ( originally Eubacteria ); Eukaryota ( including protists, fungi, plants, and animals ).

Bacteria and archaea are almost always microscopic, while a number of eukaryotes are also microscopic, including most protists, some fungi, as well as some animals and plants.

The International Code of Zoological Nomenclature ( ICZN ) governs the naming of animals, the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants ( ICN ) that of plants ( including cyanobacteria ), and the International Code of Nomenclature of Bacteria ( ICNB ) that of bacteria ( including Archaea ).

* Biohazard Level 1: Bacteria and viruses including Bacillus subtilis, canine hepatitis, Escherichia coli, varicella ( chicken pox ), as well as some cell cultures and non-infectious bacteria.

Bacteria often travel from the lung into the blood stream and can result in serious illness such as septic shock, in which there is low blood pressure leading to damage in multiple parts of the body including the brain, kidney, and heart.

Bacteria, including Lactobacilli and Leuconostoc, break down these proteins and produce lactic acid which not only affects the flavor of the sausage, but also lowers the pH from 6 to 4. 5-5, preventing the growth of bacteria that could spoil the sausage.

Bacteria, algae and fungi have been identified in amber that is 220 million years old, which shows that the morphology of microorganisms has changed little since the Triassic period.

Bacteria, or fungi in some cases, convert the organic nitrogen within the remains back into ammonium ( NH < sub > 4 </ sub >< sup >+</ sup >), a process called ammonification or mineralization.

Bacteria and fungi ( myco-organisms ) live and die within the porous media, thus increasing its carbon content.

Bacteria and eukaryotic organisms ( zooplankton, algae, fish ) consume this oxygen through cellular respiration.

Bacteria and pathogen levels are usually low, but some bacteria, protozoa or algae will be present.

Bacteria and algae isolated from the surrounding desert are common subjects of study.

Bacteria can often be killed by antibiotics because the cell wall in the outside is destroyed and then the DNA.

Bacteria often develop resistance to β-lactam antibiotics by synthesizing a β-lactamase, an enzyme that attacks the β-lactam ring.

Disembowelment, often styled as diSEMBOWELMENT, was an Australian death / doom band that formed in Melbourne in November 1989 out of the ashes of a two-piece grind band Bacteria, featuring Renato Gallina on guitar and vocals, and Paul Mazziotta on drums.

Bacteria grown in liquid cultures often form colloidal suspensions.

Bacteria also secrete proteases to hydrolyse ( digest ) the peptide bonds in proteins and therefore break the proteins down into their constituent monomers.

Bacteria secrete iron-attracting agents called siderophores that form soluble compounds of iron that can be reabsorbed into the cell and used in building iron-containing metalloproteins.

Bacteria that use quorum sensing constitutively produce and secrete certain signaling molecules ( called autoinducers or pheromones ).
