ANTIBACTERIAL AGENTS
Submitted by siriki praveen kumar on Mon, 05/23/2011 - 10:49 Hi bloggers my topic for this month is antibacterial agents.
I would like to discuss in brief regarding the classification mechanism of action of several drugs included in this category.

Anti-microbials is a general term used to cover all class of microbes like bacteria, protozoa, fungi and other such organisms.

TRANSDUCTION
Submitted by sirisha on Sun, 03/13/2011 - 15:29 Hello everyone,.
The important methods of genetic transfer are:
1. Transduction
2. Transformation

PRINCIPLES OF STERILIZATION
Submitted by siriki praveen kumar on Mon, 02/28/2011 - 19:20 Sterilization is the process of killing all forms of microbial life in or on the given object or preparation. Microbiologically, sterile material is one that contains no living organisms at all and the term sterile is therefore an absolute one. Accordingly, an object is sterile or non sterile but it can never be semisterile or almost sterile. [1]
