Pathogenic bacteria can be removed by various processes, including:
1. Boiling water: Boiling water for at least one minute can kill most pathogenic bacteria.
2. Filtration: Using a water filter can help remove bacteria and other contaminants from water.
3. Chlorination: Adding chlorine to water can kill bacteria and other pathogens.
4. UV disinfection: Exposing water to ultraviolet light can kill bacteria and other microorganisms.
5. Pasteurization: Heating food or beverages to a specific temperature for a certain amount of time can kill bacteria.
6. Antibiotics: In some cases, antibiotics may be used to treat infections caused by pathogenic bacteria.
7. Proper hygiene: Practicing good hygiene, such as washing hands regularly and properly cooking food, can help prevent the spread of pathogenic bacteria.
