This document discusses normal flora and its relationship to the human body. It defines normal flora as microorganisms commonly found on and inside the human body. These microbes exist in either mutualistic, commensal, or opportunistic relationships with their human hosts. The document outlines several types of normal flora, including resident flora that always live on the body and transient flora that only remain for short periods. It also explains how normal flora can protect the body but also potentially cause disease.Antibiotic resistance
Antibiotic resistanceDr. Samira Fattah
油
This document discusses antibiotic resistance, including the discovery of penicillin, sources and classifications of antibiotics, and how antibiotic resistance develops. It notes that antibiotic resistance was first observed in military hospitals where antibiotics were widely used. Bacteria can develop resistance through genetic mutations and plasmids, decreasing drug concentration through efflux pumps, or producing drug-inactivating enzymes. The overuse and misuse of antibiotics contributes to the spread of resistant infections, which can be difficult or impossible to treat.Normal Flora

Industrial microbiology uses microorganisms grown on a large scale to produce products or carry out chemical transformations. It originated with alcoholic fermentation and later included processes like pharmaceutical, food additive, enzyme, and chemical production. Useful industrial microbes rapidly grow on inexpensive media, produce the desired product quickly without being pathogenic, and are amenable to genetic manipulation. Natural fermentation utilizes soil microbes to improve agriculture through biofertilizers and biopesticides that assist plant growth while controlling weeds, pests, and diseases. Viruses and fungi found in soil are also developed into bioinsecticides to naturally control insect pests as alternatives to synthetic insecticides.Bacteriology
