Bacterial infections in the circulatory system can wreak havoc on our bodies. From sepsis to endocarditis, these infections trigger widespread inflammation and organ dysfunction. Understanding how bacteria spread and interact with our immune system is key to grasping their impact.
Zoonotic diseases add another layer of complexity to circulatory infections. Plague, tularemia, and Lyme disease can all be transmitted from animals to humans, causing a range of symptoms. Knowing their transmission routes and treatments is crucial for managing these potentially severe infections.

16S rRNA sequencing is a molecular technique used to identify and classify bacteria based on the genetic sequence of the 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene. This method provides insights into the composition and diversity of the microbial community in various environments, including the human body's urogenital tract and circulatory system.
