The Department of Biological Technologies, in collaboration with the Continuing Education Unit at the College of Science has organized a training course on “Bacterial Counting Methods and Their Laboratory Applications” in the presence of a number of students, researchers and those concerned in laboratory and biological fields. The course was presented by Dr. Aidaa Hussein, Dr. Aseel Shaker, Dr. Shaimaa Razak and Assist. Lecturer Marwa Shaker.
The course aimed to identify the numerical or quantitative census of bacterial growth, which is the basis of many basic and applied studies, the most important of which is the medical field, and the possibility of giving the concentration of different blood cells, such as red blood cells or white blood cells, and important information about a person’s health, as well as the concentration of bacteria, viruses and other pathogens in the blood or body fluids, which can reveal information about the development of infectious disease and how a human being’s immune system deals with infection, Knowing the concentration of the cell is important in molecular biology experiments in order to control the amount of reagents and chemicals applied to the experiment. included how to prepare bacterial vaccines as well as assessing the adequacy of water disinfection and assessing the level of cleanliness and safety of water systems, as well as assessing the validity of food items and their absence from bacterial contamination, as well as using them as a standard approved by the qualitative control to evaluate industries, pharmaceutical and food treatments and even all beverages.
