Spirillum, Comma-bacillus of the mucous membrane of the mouth 115 XII. Anthrax and Fowlcholera 122 XIII Causal connection of parasitic Bacteria with infectious diseases, especially in warm-blooded animals.i.]Structure of the Bacterium-cell.3 defined by natural history and not by physiological characters only, Bacteria are as little related in structure and development as bats are to birds ; the relationship is even less, because there are a few, though only a few, true Bacteria which contain chlorophyll and decompose carbon dioxide, and which are therefore not Fungi in the physiological sense.For these reasons we shall be more strictly correct if we speak on the present occasion of Bacteria rather than of Fissionfungi ; but so long as we are quite clear as to the difference in the meaning of the two words, it is a matter of no importance which we use.The conformation, structure, and growth of Bacteria are extremely simple, if we put out of sight certain phenomena of propagation and consider only the vegetative state.Bacteria appear in the form of round or cylindrical rod-shaped, rarely fusiform, cells of very minute size. The diameter of the round cells or the transverse section of the cylindrical cells is in most cases about o'ooi mm. ( = i micromillimetre = i /z) or even less.The length of the cylindrical cells is 2-4 times the transverse section, rarely more. There are only a few forms with distinctly larger dimensions. Putting aside, for later consideration, the forms from the group of Beggiatoa, Crenothrix and their allies, which differ to some extent in this and other respects from the rest of the Bacteria, the greatest breadth yet observed is 4 /a, the measurement given by Van Tieghem for the rod-shaped cells of Bacillus crassus.We are obliged to apply the term cells to those minute bodies, because they grow and divide like plant-cells, and also because all that we know of their structure agrees with the corresponding phenomena in plant-cells. It is true that their small size does not permit of our going at present very deeply into the minutiae of their structure.Cell-nuclei, for instance, have not yet been observed in them ; but this is the case in many small cells of other plants of a low order of growth, especially Fungi, and till recent times it was the case with respect to all fungal cells. B 2ii.]Cell-forms. 9to escape observation, and becomes visible only under the influence of reagents which give a deep colour to the protoplasm and make it shrink, especially alcoholic solution of iodine.This must not be forgotten in determining the length of cells.The successive bipartitions are either all in the same direction, and the transverse walls are therefore parallel ; or more rarely the walls lie in two or three directions in space, so that they successively cut one another, and may actually cross at a right angle.II.Cell-forms, cell-unions, and cell-groupings.SINGLE Bacterium-cells, the simple structure of which has been considered in the preceding chapter, may appear in very various forms, the variety d...
Les activités de tannage consistent en la transformation de la peau animale en cuir par élimination des lipides et des poils. Deux procédés sont utilisés pour cela : le tannage au chrome et le tannage végétal. Dans cette optique, les industries de tannerie emploient plusieurs réactifs chimiques et produisent d'énormes quantités d'eaux résiduaires et de déchets solides. Nous nous intéressons dans cette étude à l'analyse des eaux usées sortant de TAN ALIZ, une unité industrielle de tannerie de la ville de Ouagadougou, afin de déterminer si leurs rejets dans la nature après traitement ne constituent pas une pollution pour l'environnement. Cette étude, qui a été effectuée durant la période de juillet à septembre 2010, fait apparaître que: les nitrates et les sulfates ne constituent pas de pollution du milieu naturel ; les phosphates, le chrome VI, les Matières en Suspension (MES), la conductivité électrique ont des teneurs dépassant les normes admises. Ces eaux constituent donc une pollution pour la nature ; la Demande Biochimique en Oxygène (DBO 5) présente des valeurs largement supérieures à 30 mg/L, norme OMS confirmant l'existence d'une pollution organique.
Sud au Nord. Il abrite des poissons silures qui sont considérés comme sacrés par les populations riveraines et sert aussi de source d'activités socio-économiques pour ces populations. L'objectif de notre étude est de faire un état des lieux, partant, des fonctions du marigot, afin de contribuer à la protection de son écosystème et à l'amélioration de la santé et du cadre de vie des populations riveraines. Pour notre étude, nous avons fait des prélèvements d'échantillons d'eau en sept (7) points du marigot couvrant toutes les activités socioéconomiques. Les analyses des paramètres physicochimiques de pollution (pH, conductivité, turbidité, matières en suspension, ortho-phosphates, nitrates et nitrites, sulfates et chlorophylle « a »), de la demande chimique en oxygène (DCO), de la demande biologique en oxygène (DBO 5), des paramètres microbiologiques (E. coli, coliformes fécaux, streptocoques fécaux) et des paramètres organoleptiques montrent que l'eau du Houët est sujette à une pollution domestique et industrielle.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
