I snart 500 år har människan använt sig av diverse optiska instrument för att betrakta sådant som inte är möjligt att se med blotta ögat. Teleskop har använts för att studera himlakroppar och mikroskop för att exempelvis undersöka små biologiska beståndsdelar. Det finns idag många olika metoder inom optisk mikroskopi men samtliga följer en liknande grundprincip. Objektet som ska avbildas exponerasSeveral significant pathogenic bacteria exhibit surface proteins that bind human antibodies, preventing them from being recognized by the human immune system. These bacteria are thus protected from elimination and can survive in the host organism. One common such bacteria is the Streptococcus pyogenes that exhibits the antibody binding M protein on its surface. Streptococcus pyogenes causes more t
