[существительное] микроорганизм
Тезаурус:
- The microorganism must invade the body tissues before infection results and, following invasion, infection will develop only if the body defence mechanisms fail to prevent multiplication of the pathogen.
- The problem with these diseases is that they are diagnosed on the basis of indirect evidence of infection rather than by identifying a specific microorganism.
- The answer lies in the flexible genes of the lowly microorganism
- Certain chemical structures are inherently more biodegradable than others; moreover, the aqueous phase solubility, adsorptivity, molecular size and the nature of the chemical bonds within the molecule all affect the ability of a microorganism to metabolise the molecule.
- It has now been confirmed, however, that Bt is a ubiquitous soil microorganism and that highly active strains of Bt can be found in a wide variety of environmental samples.
- This new strain (KT1026) has been satisfactorily evaluated in Australia and represents the first commercial release of a genetically engineered microorganism for biocontrol.
- Might a new microorganism released for a specific purpose such as disease control, mutate and become a threat to other plants, animals or the ecological equilibrium of the environment?
- There are several different relationships between bacteria and larger organisms: symbiosis is a relationship of mutual benefit to both the host and the microorganism.
- And this is more than can be said for the majority of other books which have exploited the same theme: that of man battling away, amid ignorance and fear, against some novel, lethal, unknown microorganism.
- The goal of the engineer is to find a microorganism, generally a bacterium, that will metabolise (or at least oxidise) the target contaminant under the conditions in the contaminated site or in an above-ground reactor.
- There is one other type of microorganism to be found not in general fiction but in science fiction: the colonial organism, individually composed of microscopic bits but vastly intelligent as a collective.
- L. T. Peters' The 11th Plague (1974) describes "an infinitesimal germ, a microorganism, unleashed upon a helpless giant, the United States", and a doctor who risks his life to do something about it and "for one terrible moment finds that the fate of the world is in his hands".
- The answer lies in the flexible genes of the lowly microorganism John Postgate
