Elephantiasis (aka lymphatic filariasis).
Hi there,
Please help me with the Research Paper for my Microbiology class, the topic I want you to do research on is
Causative Agent:
Scientific name of organism(s)? Cellular/structural characteristics:
If Bacterial: Gram reaction, shape and arrangement, metabolic capabilities, etc.
If Viral: Genetic molecule, enveloped/naked, size, provirus, multiplication cycle, etc.
If Prion: Description, location in body, function of normal form, etc.
If Eukaryotic: Kingdom, multi- or uni- cellular, life cycle, metabolic capabilities, etc.
History:
How long have we known about the disease?
History of vaccine development/treatment?
Changes in our knowledge and attitudes of this disease throughout history?
Epidemiology:
Prevalence and transmission of the disease:
Where in the world is it prevalent? How many people currently infected?
Reservoir? Mode of transmission? Rate of new infections?
Rates of morbidity and mortality?
Patholog
