Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The bacteria are classified into four types on the basis of their shapes. The four types of bacteria are Coccus, Bacillus, Vibrio, and Spiral. The coccus shaped bacteria are spherical in shape such as the Streptococcus species. The bacillus shaped bacteria are cylindrical shaped cells such as the Lactobacillus. The vibrio shaped bacteria are comma-shaped cells such as Vibrio cholera. The spiral-shaped bacterial are “S” shaped such as Spirillum.

- The microbiology department is celebrating the end of the school year in May by holding its traditional picnic on the green. The speeches drag on for a couple of hours, but finally all the faculty and students can dig into the food: chicken salad, tomatoes, onions, salad, and custard pie. By evening, the whole department, except for two vegetarian students who did not eat the chicken salad, is stricken with nausea, vomiting, retching, and abdominal cramping. Several individuals complain of diarrhea. One patient shows signs of shock (low blood pressure). Blood and stool samples are collected from patients, and an analysis of all foods served at the meal is conducted.
