What is difference between Viral and Bacterial infection
Microbes or infections are the essential driver of numerous contaminations in people. A few researchers accept that microbes, which are infinitesimal single-celled life forms, are connected with plants. They occupy different environments, from deserts to ice inclines, and are among the best life structures on earth. While certain microbes are useful to our stomach microscopic organisms, for instance, help in legitimate food processing different microorganisms can cause various diseases. We allude to these sorts of microscopic organisms that cause illness as pathogenic microorganisms.
The right anti-microbials can successfully treat a ton of bacterial diseases, however anti-infection safe strains are beginning to show up. There is vaccination accessible to forestall various serious bacterial ailments. An infection is a lot more modest microorganism that can increase inside the living cell of its host. An infection is exceptionally difficult to kill. Hence, probably the most perilous irresistible illnesses that advanced medication has found have viral roots.
Viral Infection :-
1. Viral infections are mainly caused by viruses. Virus are tiny particle made by two genetic material ( DNA or RNA ) surrounded by protein coat.
2. Virus are attack on normal cell or host cell to replicate and produce more copies of virus.
3. Virus are directly affect more organ or body part of the body. Mainly respiratory tract, gastro intestinal tract, nervous system, immune system.
4. Example of virus infection :-
A. Influenza :- Influenza is also known as Flu. It is commonly viral infection with many high risk of infection. Influenza virus are attack on nose, thorat, lungs. When people are suffer with weak immune system, young children, older man or women, pregnant women are mainly infected by influenza virus. It easily spread easily person to person. There are four main types of influenza viruses :- influenza A, Influenza B, Influenza C, Influenza D.
Influenza A or influenza B are known to mainly cause a flu. Both are seasonal epidemic viruses. Influenza C viruses are mainly caused mild illness or influenza D viruses are affect the cattle. Fever, muscle ache, cough, rainy nose, headache are common symptoms of influenza virus.
B. HIV :- HIV Stand for Human Immuno deficiency virus. Human immunodeficiency virus ( HIV ) directly attack on the cell that are help to fight against infection. HIV spread by contact with any bodily fluid like saliva, infected person blood, semen etc. HIV are lead to cause AIDS. AIDS stand for Acquired Immuno Deficiency symdorme. To diagnosis of HIV infection Tridot blood test are mainly used. In tridot method, HIV are detected for confirmation another test are done by doctor. P24 antigen, PCR or post test are used to diagnosis the infection of HIV. Human immunodeficiency virus are two species of lentivirus that Infect the human that are contact with any infected person. It is sexually transmitted disease that infected by contact with infected person. It also occur by infected mother to there infant during there pregnancy. HIV infected directly to the vital cell of immune system like T cell, macrophages, dendritic cell. Mainly ELISA method are used to diagnosis the infection of HIV Virus.
Bacterial or microorganisms Infection :-
1. Bacterial infection are caused by bacteria. Bacteria are single celled microorganisms with the cell wall and DNA genetic material.
2. Bacteria are mainly multiply outside the cell and infected to the cell.
3. Bacteria are Infect the various part of the body mainly skin, respiratory tract, urninay tract, gastro intestinal tract.
4. Example of bacterial infection:-
A. Tuberculosis ( TB ) :- Tuberculosis ( TB ) are bacterial infection mainly damage lungs and also affect the various part of the body. TB bacteria also affect the kidney, spine or brain. It spread easily person to person. Cough, weight loss, night sweats, fever, fatigue, chest pain are common symptoms of TB. It caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria. Active tuberculosis are diagnosis by Chest X ray, microscope examination, tuberculin skin test. The Mantoux tuberculin skin test used to screen people at high risk for TB. Active infection of TB are caused in people those are suffer with Human immunodeficiency virus or Acquired Immuno Deficiency symdorme or those are smoke. BCG vaccine are prevent the TB infection.
B. Salmonella :-
Salmonella are rod shaped Bacteria. Salmonella species are caused salmonellosis. Mostly infection are caused due to the ingestion of food contaminated with feces. Salmonella transferd in human caused food borne disease, typhoid, fever. Salmonella infection are get through the uncooked food, eggs, meat. Cramps, bloody poops, fever, head ache are common symptoms or salmonella infection.
How are bacterial and viral contaminations communicated?
There's a ton of cross-over in how bacterial and viral contaminations spread. Here are the fundamental ways they can be communicated:
• Direct contact: This can affect contacting a contaminated individual, their injuries, or natural liquids (like kissing or sexual contact).
• Circuitous contact: Contacting surfaces tainted with microbes or infections (like door handles, light switches, or toys) and afterward contacting your face can spread the disease.
• Respiratory drops: Hacking, sniffling, or in any event, talking can push little drops containing microbes or infections high up, which can be breathed in by others.
• Defiled food or water: Ingesting food or water that has been ruined or debased with microorganisms or infections can cause contamination.
• Creature or bug chomps/transmission: Mosquitoes, ticks, and even nibbles from tainted creatures can send microorganisms.
• Mother to kid: now and again, microorganisms or infections can be passed from mother to kid during pregnancy, labor, or breastfeeding.
Key differences between viral and bacterial infection :-
1. Virus require host body for Replication, while the bacteria are not required host body or cell it replicate independently.
2. Virus are treat with anti viral medication.
Bacteria are treat with antibiotic medication.
3. Virus are often infected by directly contact or Close contact. But bacteria infected by various route food, water.
These are some Key points of viral and bacterial infection. We are discuss viral infection and bacterial infection with two example. If any doubts or question regarding this topic freely asked in comments section. I will answer with in 48 hours. Share with your friends. Stay tunned.
