Research and Reviews on Pathogens
Open Access

Pathogens are the chain of infections that cause diseases. In our daily life, we come in contact with pathogens in most of times our body’s immune system will destroy them before they cause any harm to the body. It is also known as disease causing microorganisms. This is a peer reviewed journal that includes the topics in this field includes skin allergies, pathogenic microorganisms, bacterial skin diseases, bloodborne pathogens and create a great platform for the authors to make their contribution towards the journal. The editorial office promises a thorough peer review of the submitted manuscripts to ensure quality.

Research and reviews on Pathogens is one of the best open access journals that aims to publish the most complete and reliable source of information on discoveries and current developments in the mode of original articles, review articles, case reports, short communications, etc. in the field and provides online access to the researchers worldwide without any restrictions or subscription charges.

This scholarly publishing journal is using Editorial Tracking System for quality in the review process. Editorial Tracking is an online manuscript submission, review that tracks the progress of the article. Review processing is performed by the editorial board members of Research and reviews on Pathogens or outside experts; at least two independent reviewer’s approval followed by the editor is required for the acceptance of any citable manuscript. Authors may submit manuscripts and track their progress through the system, hopefully to publication. Reviewers can download manuscripts and submit their opinions to the editor. Editors can manage the whole submission/review/revise/publish process.

Pathogenic microorganisms

Microorganism capable of injuring its host by competing with it for metabolic resources, secreting toxins or destroying its cells or tissues. The injurious microorganisms include viruses, bacteria, mycobacteria, fungi, protozoa. Pathogenic microorganisms may be carried from one host to another. Some organisms are pathogenic for animals as well as humans and may be communicated to humans through direct or indirect contact. Pathogenic microorganisms such as rhinoviruses, mycobacteria, or varicella may be discharged into the air, from which infection may be caused to exposed persons.

Pathogens and disease

An agent that causes infection or disease, especially a microorganism, such as a bacterium or protozoan, or a virus. Microorganisms, viruses, and toxins are examples of pathogens. Diseases that are caused by pathogens or infectious agents like bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses are called pathogenic diseases.

Pneumonia pathogens

Pneumonia pathogen is an infection in one or both lungs. It may involve just one small section of your lung, or it may encompass your entire lung. The pathogen cause the lung’s air sacs to become inflamed and filled with pus, fluid, and cellular debris. Pneumonia pathogen can be mild or serious. It may even lead to respiratory failure or death. The severity of your pneumonia depends on the strength of the bacteria and how quickly you are diagnosed and treated. Your age, health, and immune status are also factors.

Ebola pathogen

Ebola virus (EBOV) is a member of the Filoviridae virus family along with Marburg virus (MARV). Together they are commonly known as filoviruses. EBOV is a virulent pathogen that causes fatal hemorraghic fever in humans and nonhuman primates. A large majority of patients infected with EBOV, and who are not properly treated, fall ill within 2-20 days after exposure, with 50-90% death rate. Ebola virus is one of five known viruses within the genus Ebolavirus. Four of the five known ebolaviruses, including EBOV, cause a severe and often fatal hemorrhagic fever in humans and other mammals, known as Ebola virus disease (EVD).

Bacterial skin diseases

Bacterial skin infection is very painful and the skin becomes red and usually warm to touch. The important function of the skin is to protect the body from the infections. In some cases, by itching the infection will spread form the skin in to the blood stream. The man causes of the skin infections are bacteria, viruses and fungi. Many factors that will increase the skin infections are reduction of immune system, illness and side effect of medication.

Bloodborne pathogens

The microorganisms that are transmitted form the human blood and cause diseases in humans. Pathogens are included in the microorganism but are not limited. Some of the viruses that includes in the bloodborne pathogens are hepatitis B, hepatitis C and human immunodeficiency virus. In order to reduce the bloodborne pathogens the human must implement an exposure control plan in the worksite and should take the protective measures.
