| A home owners Guide on Mold, Mildew and Bacteria | | 2008-06-23 00:45:00 | | The Mold, mildew and bacteria are all natural pollutants found in nearly all homes. And though it is impossible to free your home of all of them, an ever-increasing number of consumers are opting for kind testing and inspection to get a superior handle on the level of their presence and how to play down their growth in the home. A mold test or mold inspection can help recognize the kind of mold that may be there in your home, however it can not promise your home is mold-free or will not develop mold at a soon after time. Normally a mold test will sample obtainable mold and test the mold to recognize the species or kind. On the other hand, homeowners or homebuyers may choose to avail themselves of further more expensive, albeit more thorough testing or inspections. Added testing or inspection can time and again make out mold types that can increase the chance that the home’s inhabitants practice adverse health affects because of the exposure. | | By: Easy House Buy | | |

| Helpful Bacteria May Hide in Appendix | | 2008-06-19 11:01:00 | | Everyone is born with one, but no one knows what it’s for. The human appendix is a small dead-end tube connected to the cecum, or ascending colon, one section of the large intestine. Everyone lives happily with it until it becomes painfully inflamed, when the only treatment is to remove it surgically.Some experts have guessed that it is a vestige of the evolutionary development of some other organ, but there is little evidence for an appendix in our evolutionary ancestors. Few mammals have any appendix at all, and the appendices of those that do bears little resemblance to the human one.Last December, researchers published a novel explanation in The Journal of Theoretical Biology. The appendix, they suggest, is a “safe house” for commensal bacteria, the symbiotic germs that aid digestion and help protect against disease-causing germs. Structurally, the appendix is isolated from the rest of the gut, with an opening smaller than a pencil lead, protected from the fecal stream that m | | By: Nerdy Eddy | | |

| Scientists create bacteria that eat junk, produce oil | | 2008-06-19 09:11:00 | | A company called LS9 is creating nearly pump-ready oil using single-celled bacteria. They start with industrial yeast organisms or "non-pathogenic strains of E. coli," and redesign their DNA so that they produce a different kind of waste. Crude oil is not far removed, molecularly, from the fatty acids expelled by yeast or E. coli during fermentation, so a little bit of DNA alteration bypasses the fatty acids and produces "Oil 2.0."The "bugs" can be fed a variety of feedstock, from politically sensitive corn to Brazilian sugar cane to California wheat straw to Southern wood chips. The result is the same: crude oil that is almost ready to pour into your car. What's more: the enterprise is carbon negative, putting out less CO2 than the operation requires. At the moment it takes a 1,000-liter fermentation machine one week to make a 40-gallon drum of crude.It will be a moment before they have a seamless industrial-sized operation.

| Bacteria outnumber human cells 10 to 1 | | 2008-06-04 21:07:38 | | The number of bacteria living within the body of the average healthy adult human are estimated to outnumber human cells 10 to 1. Changes in these microbial communities may be responsible for digestive disorders, skin diseases, gum disease and even obesity. Despite their vital imporance in human health and disease, these communities residing within us remain largely unstudied and a concerted research effort needs to be made to better understand them, say researchers today at the 108th General Meeting of the American Society for Microbiology in Boston.

| We Might Get Rid of Bacteria on Food But Will Also Lose Nutrients With Food Irradiation | | 2008-04-14 14:24:00 | | Cartoon - Mike Adams - Natural News.com There's a new study underway to sterilize your food. This will help cut food borne disease but at a cost, it will also destroy the nutritional value of fresh produce.The study is being done by the USDA and the American Chemical Society -- a pro-chemical group that represents the interests of industrial chemical manufacturers. The latest push comes from USDA researchers who conducted a study to see which method more effectively killed bacteria on leafy green vegetables like spinach.The thing to realize here is that many of the healing properties of these foods are destroyed through pasteurization or irradiation. If you're a government that wants to "take away the People's medicine," the fastest way to accomplish that is to mandate the sterilization of the food supply. Kill the foods and you take away the People's medicine, and that forces the population to use pharmaceuticals instead.The corporations run | | By: Whole Food And More | | |

| Ultraviolet Air Filtration Systems Kills Airborne Bacteria | | 2008-04-04 09:26:44 | | Air purifiers help make the air around you clean. There is one type of air purifiers which use UV light as UV light is proven to be a potent killer of airborne bacteria. In small amounts, as the ones used in a ultraviolet air purifier, it is not enough to be harmful to humans. I have one liquid based air purifier in my home living room where it helps to give a pleasant scent to the room as well as clean the air. It’s not as advanced as a UV air purifier.

| Link found between bacteria in the digestive system and obesity | | 2008-04-01 15:43:16 | | Obesity is more than a cosmetic concern because it increases a person’s risk for developing high blood pressure, diabetes and many other serious health problems. It’s well understood that consuming more calories than you expend through exercise and daily activities causes weight gain. But with about one in every three American adults now considered obese, researchers are attempting to identify additional factors that affect a person’s tendency to gain and retain excess weight. In the April issue of Mayo Clinic Proceedings, researchers from Mayo Clinic Arizona and Arizona State University examine the role that bacteria in the human gastrointestinal tract play in regulating weight and the development of obesity.

| Microwaving a dish sponge can kill 99% of bacteria | | 2008-03-16 15:39:35 | | I use sponge to wash our dishes since we don't have a dishwasher-one of the things I wish we have sometimes when I am not in the mood to wash dishes manually; with my tired hands. We have a very small kitchen though, so perhaps someday anyway. As for what I am talking about; kitchen sponges. Well, I recently learned that microwaving a sponge for a minute or two can kill off 99% of bacteria. I never knew that until I saw it on television. It really does help, because our dish sponge seems clean and doesn't smell so bad. When I didn't microwave our dish sponge before, my, I couldn't even stand the smell of it and could only use it a few times then throw it away because of the smell and the fact that it is loaded with all kinds of germs. By the way, for those of you that still live primitive like where I came from; I would suggest that if you are using sponge to wash dishes, sterilizing your sponge or material that you use to wash your dishes might help with minimizing bacteria from loadi | | By: Simply Me | | |

The findings suggest that specific polyphenols, present in large amounts in fermented seeds and skins cast away after grapes are pressed, interfere with the ability of bacteria to contribute to tooth decay. Beyond cavities, the action of the wine grape-based chemicals may also hold clues for new ways to lessen the ability of bacteria to cause life-threatening, systemic infections.

| The Brits Announce Bacteria in Cows Milk Likely Cause of Crohn's Disease | | 2007-12-17 22:00:00 | | Scientists at the University of Liverpool, United Kingdom, have discovered a certain type of bacteria in cattle as a likely cause for Crohn's disease in human beings. The bacteria, called Mycobacterium paratuberculosis, are known to cause the debilitating Johne's disease in cattle. It is believed the bacteria are transferred from cows to humans via milk and dairy product consumption. The British scientists have been able to observe reactions caused by the bacteria in the human body that could tap it as a cause for Crohn's disease. This could open up new ways for finding more effective treatment options for Crohn's.Crohn's disease is a chronic inflammation of the intestines. Patients suffering from Crohn's disease experience pain, bleeding, and diarrhea. If medical treatment options are not successful, relieve can often only be found through the removal of the effected part of the intestines. Similarly, Johne's disease in cattle causes severe diarrhea. As a result of the disease cattle usually slowly perishes. While the cause of Johne's disease has been known, until now there had been no known cause for Crohn's disease. It has been most recently theorized that Crohn's (not Chrones, chrons, or chron's) disease is genetically linked. The British Scientists now seem to be able to explain how the presence of Mycobacterium paratuberculosis in a patient's body can cause Crohn's disease.It has long been known that patients suffering from Crohn's disease have a higher than usual level of E.coli bacteria in their body. Similarly, Mycobacterium paratuberculosis has been known to be present in Crohn's disease tissue. But until now, nobody has been able to explain the bacteria's presence and connection to the disease. Now the British scientists have been able to observe that the bacteria, Mycobacterium paratuberculosis, inhibit the body's immune system response to E.coli bacteria.Mycobacterium paratuberculosis discharges a mannose-containing molecule.

| Bacteria Man | | 2007-07-05 05:09:44 | | This is really funny. I had learned something new from Clara last night. Last night she mentioned the word “Bacteria Man”. I wonder who was ‘Bacteria Man’ and I asked her. To my surprise and I could not stand it but keep laughing, she told me her father is “Bacteria Man”! Here come the reason. The “Bacteria Man” is well-known to be ’stinky’ after jogging. He will put all his clothes, mixed with all our normal laundry clothes. One day, we asked the “Bacteria Man” to put his ’sweat-soaked’ T-shirt in the water-filled pail after jogging. However, who knows this lazy “Bacteria Man” is so lazy, never change the water in the pail. Leaving the pail of stagnant water with his t-shirt in the pail for days. Ultimately I have to do all the rest of the job. I had to pour away the water, wash his shirts.
