And Streptococcus pyogenes are 'pus-making twisty berries'
You honestly learn so much by translierating the Latin and Greek.
Phagocyte = a cell that eats
Liposome = fatty blob
Foramen magnum = massive hole
Streptococcus = twisty berry

Além da avaliação clínica, a partir dos sinais, sintomas e histórico, existem exames laboratoriais para identificar uma infecção por S. pyogenes:
- Uso de meios de cultivo seletivos;
- Exames de sangue
- Busca por antígenos do patógeno, por exemplo biomedicinapadrao.com.br/2023/12/como....

Die armen Streptococcus pyogenes Bakterien werden sterilisiert und ihre sterblichen Überreste lyophilisiert, nur um diese dann als #Homöopathie zu Geld zu machen. Nicht nur als Mikroben-Influencer prangert ich diesen Irrsinn an.
Bei mir war #Globukalypse in der #Apotheke heute auch ganz schlimm, zuerst brauchte eine Kundin gaaanz dringend Streptokokkin nach Herrn Dr.Tilch ⤵️, weil sie in ihrem Probefläschen aus der “Fortbildung“ nur noch drei Globuli hatte 😱😱😱

Excited to say that in collaboration with colleagues in Australia @latrobeuni.bsky.social we got NHMRC funding to use SpyCATS cohort to build state of the art #StrepA transmission models. Hope to ultimately better understand household transmission & help target interventions in high burden settings.
Streptococcus pyogenes carriage and infection within households in The Gambia: a longitudinal cohort study
S pyogenes carriage and infection are common in The Gambia, particularly in children. Most events are non-household acquisitions, but skin carriage and pyoderma have an important role in S pyogenes household transmission and bidirectional transmission between skin and pharynx occurs.

12) Now it gets interesting because these suspect genes were often linked to the immune and nervous systems.
RABGAP1L for example promotes expulsion of the bacterium Streptococcus pyogenes and limits replication of multiple viruses.

First Bannon does Hitler salute at CPAC.
Now he's making threats against American Jews who do not toe the party line.
