Infection Control (Bacteriology)
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Acquired immune deficiency syndrome a disease caused by the HIV virus, which breaks down the bosy's immune system; not a transmission risk in the salon. | AIDS |
| Chemical germicides formulated for use on skin, registered and regulated by the FDA. | Antiseptics |
| Short rod-shaped bacteria. | Bacilli |
| One-celled microorganisms; some are harmful, most are harmless. | Bacteria |
| Capable of destroying bacteria. | Bactericidal |
| Disease-causing microorganisms carried in the body by blood or body fluids. | Bloodeborne Pathogens |
| Slender, hairlike extensions used by bacilli and spirilla for locomotion. (Flagella) | Cilia |
| Round-shaped bacteria that appear singly (alone) or in groups (staphylococci; streptococci; diplococci). | Cocci |
| Disease that can be easily spread to others by contact. | Contagious Disease |
| Determining the nature of a disease or infection; must be done by a physician. Federal regulations prohibit salon professionals from performing any medical diagnosis. | Diagnosis |
| Spherical bacteria that grow in pairs and cause diseases such as pneumonia. | Diplococci |
| Abnormal condition of all or part of the body, organ, or mind that makes it incapable of carrying on normal function. | Disease |
| An item that can be disinfected. | Disinfectable |
| Chemical products that destroy most bacteria and viruses, but not spores, on surfaces. | Disinfectants |
| The process that eliminates most microorganisms, but is not effective against bacterial spores. | Disinfection |
| The effectiveness with which a disinfecting solution kills germs when used according to the label. | Efficacy |
| Slender, hairlike extensions used by bacilli and sporilla for locomotion. (Singular: flagellum) | Flagella |
| Microscopic plant parasites, including molds, mildews, and yeasts. (singular: fungus) | Fungi |
| Capable of destroying fungi. | Fungicidal |
| A bloodborne virus that causes disease affecting the liver. | Hepatitis |
| Human immunodeficiency virus; virus that can cause AIDS. | HIV |
| The invasion of body tissues by disease-causing (pathogenic) microorganisms; having evidence of pus. | Infection |
| Infection that can be spread from one person to another person, from one innfected body part to another. | Infectious |
| The body's response to injury or infection with redness, heat, pain, and swelling. | Inflammation |
| Microscopic plant or animal. | Microorganism |
| A type of fungus that affects plants or grows on inanimate objects, but does not cause human infections in the salon setting. | Mildew |
| Self-Movement | Motility |
| Information compiled by a manufacturer about its product, ranging from ingredient content and associated hazards to combustion levels and storage requirements. | Material Safety Data Sheet |
| Not harmful: not disease-producing. | Nonpathogenic |
| Illness resulting from conditions associated with employment. | Occupational Disease |
| Organisms that live in or on another organism and draws its nourishment from that organism. | Parasite |
| Causing disease; harmful. | Pathogenic |
| Skin Disease caused by infestation of head lice. | Pediculosis Capitis |
| Capable of destroying the bacteria that cause tuberculosis. | Phenolics |
| Absorbent; having pores or openings. | Porous |
| A type of disinfectant solution safe for all uses in the salon; commonly called QUATS. | Quaternary Ammonium Compound |
| Third level of decontamination; significantly reducing the number of pathogens or disease-producing organisms found on a surface. | Sanitation |
| Common household bleach; disinfectant for salon use. | Sodium Hypochlorite |
| Spiral or corkscrew-shaped bacteria that cause syphilis, Lyme disease, and other diseases. | Spirilla |
| Pus-forming bacteria that grow in clusters like a bunch of grapes: cause abscesses, pustules, and boils. | Staphylococci |
| Highest level of decontamination: completely kills every organism on a nonporous surface. | Sterilization |
| Pus-forming bacteria arranged in curved lines resembling a string of beads; cause infections such as strep throat and blood poisoning. | Streptococci |
| Poisonous substances, some of which can be produced by certain microorganisms. | Toxins |
| Disinfectants that kill the bacteria that can cause tuberculosis. | Tuberculocidal |
| Set of guidelines and controls, published by the CDC, that requires the employer and the employee to assume that all human blood and specified human body fluids are infectious for HIV, HBV, and other bloodborne pathogens. | Universal Precautions |
| Capable of destroying viruses. | Virucidal |
| Submicroscopic structure capable of infesting almost all plants and animals, including bacteria: infectious agent that lives only by penetrating cells and becoming part of them. | Virus |
