Bacteria

Meningococcus

Meningococcus is gram-negative globular cells with a diameter of 0.6-0.8 microns. In smears prepared from the material taken from the patient, they are in the form of coffee beans, often located in pairs or tetrads, or randomly, often inside the leukocytes - incomplete phagocytosis.

Pathogen plague

Plague (pestis) - an acute infectious disease, proceeding according to the type of hemorrhagic septicemia. In the past, the plague was a formidable scourge for humanity. Three pandemic plague are known, which claimed millions of human lives.

Streptococci

Streptococci belong to the family Streptococcaceae (genus Streptococcus). T. Bilrot was first discovered in 1874 with a face; L. Pasteur - in 1878 with postpartum sepsis; isolated in pure culture in 1883 by F. Feleisen.
