Giantmicrobes - Acne Pimple

Affecting some adults and almost 100% of teenagers at some point, acne is just a part of life. Puberty causes huge increases in testosterone production in both boys and girls, which in turn causes the sebaceous glands to produce more oil. Clogged skln pores create the perfect incubating environment for Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes). As P. acnes multiplies in the clogged pores, it causes swelling and redness and a variety of wonderful lesions that include blackheads, whiteheads, solid bumps, flat red splotches, and even angry cysts that can cause scarring.

When they are not purposely attacked with it, people usually get anthrax by touching infected animals or animal products such as wool. An untreated anthrax skin infection will cause death in about 20% of those infected. Those with intestinal infection after ingesting the disease will find the odds of survival against them with up to a 60% death rate after experiencing nausea, loss of appetite, fever, abdominal pain, vomiting of blood, and severe diarrhea.GIANTmicrobes - Anthrax is completely harmless (cute even) and the only kind of anthrax you can legally send through the mail in this country.

The process is extremely painful and if not treated quickly with antibiotics and removal of infected areas, will result in morality rates as high as 73%. So, if you get a skin injury - even as small as a pinprick - that hurtswaytoo much accompanied by flu-like symptoms and purplish blisters, you just might be on the menu!Each GIANTmicrobe comes with a picture and information about the real microbe it represents.

Giantmicrobes - Hepatitis

Probably the most dangerous of the hepatitis viruses is the hepatitis C virus (HCV). It is transmitted by bodily-fluids and 80 percent of people don't even show signs or symptoms of infection. This is not good as they can pass the virus on to others unknowingly. As a matter of fact, an estimated 170 million people worldwide are infected.  HCV attacks the liver causing scarring which can develop into cirrhosis. Each year, eight to ten thousand people die from hepatitis C virus infection just in the United States alone.Each GIANTmicrobe comes with a picture and information about the real microbe it represents.

This is caused by the disease eating holes through the victims brain. Not pretty. What's worse is that humans can get the disease by eating infected cows.

Somebody's looking to get busy. As a matter of fact, millions of sperm cells (Spermatozoon) just know that it is their special purpose! However, not all are particularly gifted at their calling with about half of them veering off and heading down the wrong fallopian tube. The rest continue in the race for the egg cell in a miniature survival of the fittest challenge.

But if it manages to find an"in", it can really be a bad house guest in the body you call home. Once staph is on the wrong side of your skin-barrier, the bacteria can cause minor irritations like boils, rashes, and sties.

This in turn prompted the French to call it"The Italian Disease."Other invading armies have enjoyed the honor of having it named for their countries as they had unprotected sex with prostitutes in the countries they were invading.

Giantmicrobes - T4

The T4 bacteriophage is a very interesting virus. Its job is to attack the E. coli bacteria. Once it locates its intended victim, T4 uses the end of its tail tube to penetrate the outer membrane of the cell. It then begins to replicate DNA using its high-speed copying mechanism. It then forms new T4 virus particles and completes the process when the host cell bursts open ejecting the newly created viruses into the environment. Several Noble Prize winners have worked with T4 in scientific endeavors to aid humanity. Let's hope they keep up the good work!Each GIANTmicrobe comes with a picture and information about the real microbe it represents.
