Gram negative Rods SGDs
Introduction: Gram negative Rods SGDs, often referred to as “GNRs” in the medical field, are a broad category of bacteria that play a significant role in human health and disease. The term “gram-negative” refers to their inability to retain the violet crystal dye used in Gram staining, a common technique in microbiology, while the term […]
Gram negative Cocci SGDs
Introduction: Gram negative Cocci SGDs are a classification of bacteria that are spherical in shape and characterized by their reaction to the Gram stain test. Unlike Gram-positive bacteria, these organisms do not retain the violet dye used in the Gram stain, instead taking on a red or pink color. This difference is due to their […]
Obligate Intracellular Bacteria SGDs
Introduction Obligate intracellular bacteria SGDs are fascinating microorganisms that have evolved to grow and reproduce solely inside the cells of a host. These unique bacteria, which include prominent genera such as Chlamydia and Rickettsia, have a dependency on the host for their survival and reproduction. The fact that they cannot be cultured outside of host […]
