	Mycobacterium Lepromatosis ''Mycobacterium lepromatosis'' is an aerobic, Acid-fastness, acid-fast bacillus (AFB), and the second known causative agent of Hansen's disease (leprosy). It was discovered in 2008. Analysis of the 16S ribosomal RNA, 16S rRNA gene confirms that the species is distinct from ''Mycobacterium leprae''. Characteristics Members of the Mycobacterium genus are characterized by being Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-positive, non-motile, non-spore-forming, and possess a bacilliary cell shape. Bacteria in the ''Mycobacterium'' genus are characteristically known for possessing an outer membrane, capsules, as well as a uniquely thick, waxy, Hydrophobe, hydrophobic cell wall abundant in Mycolic acid, mycolic acids. Many species of ''Mycobacterium'' are opportunistic pathogenic bacteria and can cause serious disease. The 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA), a genetic marker of bacterial evolution is used in establishing phylogenetic relationships due to its highly conserved nature. 16S rRNA sequencing of '' ...

picture info	Diffuse Leprosy Of Lucio And Latapi Diffusion is the net movement of anything (for example, atoms, ions, molecules, energy) generally from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. Diffusion is driven by a gradient in Gibbs free energy or chemical potential. It is possible to diffuse "uphill" from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration, like in spinodal decomposition. The concept of diffusion is widely used in many fields, including physics (particle diffusion), chemistry, biology, sociology, economics, and finance (diffusion of people, ideas, and price values). The central idea of diffusion, however, is common to all of these: a substance or collection undergoing diffusion spreads out from a point or location at which there is a higher concentration of that substance or collection. A gradient is the change in the value of a quantity, for example, concentration, pressure, or temperature with the change in another variable, usually distance. A change in c ...
