Bacteria are almost found in almost every natural environment; from the depths of oceans to the
tops of mountains, from polar ice to hot springs, from soil to plant and animal bodies. Some bacteria
are beneficial for human. However, many of them are dangerous for human.
Bacteria are unicellular micro-organisms, some so small that five million of these micro-
organisms could fit on a pin-head and trillions could fill our large intestine. These small organisms
come in three basic cell shapes: spherical, rod-like and spiral.
Bacteria reproduce very rapidly and are
a widespread form of life on earth. They are found everywhere in our environment: in the air we
breathe, on the surfaces of plates and forks, on our skin, in our mouths, in lakes and rivers, in the
oceans, on plants and in the soil.
Bacteria are associated with diseases. Pneumonia, tuberculosis, blood poisoning and infection of
surgical wounds are caused by bacteria and such diseases kill thousands of people yearly.
Based on the facts above, the challenge to the medical and scientific communities is to find potent
weapons to eliminate bacteria which are harmful to men.
