Mastitis. Mastitis, by definition, is inflammation of the mammary gland. It can occur in any woman; however, it is most common in first-time lactating mothers. This condition is a result of bacterial invasion of breast tissue. Mastitis rarely occurs in the antepartum period (before birth of the baby). Its incidence includes 1-2% of primiparas (first-time mothers) who are postpartum and lactating. It usually occurs 2-4 weeks after delivery.
Coccidiosis is a parasitic disease of the intestinal tract of animals caused by coccidian protozoa.The disease spreads from one animal to another by contact with infected feces or ingestion of infected tissue. Diarrhea, which may become bloody in severe cases, is the primary symptom.uppies are frequently infected with coccidia from the feces of their mother, and are more likely to develop coccidiosis due to their undeveloped immune systems. Stress can trigger symptoms in susceptible animals.
Bacteria comes in three general shapes: spherical, rod-shaped and spiral. This article will focus on the spherical (sometimes oval) shaped bacteria. If you are talking about a single bacterium, the term is coccus, and the plural form is cocci.A coccus organism is capable of living on its own, but it may also live in a formation along with other cocci bacteria. Two joined cocci are known a diplococci, while four arranged in a square shape are called a tetrad.The Sarcina genus arrange themselves in groups of eight, in a cube shape.ome notable cocci bacteria include: Staphylococcus aureus: These bacteria are often found in the nose and on the skin, and about 20% of humans are carriers. It is capable of causing various minor skin conditions, and it can cause more serious infections, like pneumonia, meningitis, and toxic shock syndrome (TSS).
