Presentation
This may mean that there is no bacterial infection present or that there were not enough bacteria present in the sample to be seen with the stain under a microscope. [labtestsonline.org]
These acids are present. Liproproteins They are attached to the polysaccharide backbone. They are absent. Periplasmic Space It is present. It is absent. [biologywise.com]
Your doctor can use a gram stain to learn if bacteria are responsible for your symptoms and what types of bacteria are present. They may also order other tests to help diagnose your illness. [healthline.com]
Porin channels are present in gram-negative bacteria which can prevent the entry of harmful chemicals and antibiotics like penicillin. [medimoon.com]
Asialo-ganglioside GA1 and TLR2 receptors are increased in cells expressing mutant CFTR and in areas of regenerating epithelium that are likely present in the inflamed CF airway [12], [13], [5], [14]. [pathwaymaps.com]

Approximately 22% of patients had multilobar pneumonia, and ∼9% had pleural effusion at baseline (Pharmacia, unpublished data). [academic.oup.com]

- Excitement
Parallel to the increasing resistance among the common pathogens, linezolid is an exciting therapeutic option. Nevertheless, there is no reason to believe that resistance will not emerge. [aafp.org]

Etiology
Etiology Most cases of sepsis occur as the result of an infection of the urinary tract, lungs, or the peritoneum. Other sources of sepsis include skin, soft tissue, and central nervous system (CNS) infections. [atsu.edu]
Epidemiology
The evolution of cancer therapy and the changing epidemiology of major gram-positive pathogens mean that ongoing efforts are needed to understand and mitigate the impact of these bacteria in patients with malignancy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prevention
Reasonable use of antibiotics, decreasing intra-operative blood input, and preventing post-operative renal failure may reduce Gram-positive bacterial infections and the appearance of drug-resistant strains following liver transplantation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Did you know that your body is loaded with hundreds and thousands of bacteria that serve to colonize your body in order to prevent overgrowth of pathogenic elements? You can classify bacteria with a process called gram staining. [blog.safetec.com]
