2 Modes of Cell Death: Cell Necrosis and Apoptosis | Microbiology

Two principal modes of cell death are now recognized, namely necrosis and apoptosis. Both may follow cell injury but the nature of the two types of death are quite different. Mode # 1. Cell Necrosis: The changes in cells undergoing necrosis are essentially a continuation of those described above, in cell injury. However, they are, of course, more profound and [...]

Such nomenclatural anachronisms as "Vibrio comma," "non-cholera vibrio," and "Salmonella typhosa" are examples of the ultraconservative approach of some medical sources to changes in nomenclature. The most comprehensive treatment of bacterial classification, [...]
