Class Notes Test 1

Pima/Mesa 12/07 Micro Test 1

QuestionAnswer
Bacterial Cell Structure Capsule-no plasma membrane, flagellum-swimmers, ribosomes-dna, neucloid area-no nucleus, no membrane bound organelles, pilus helps to anchor to another surface to transfer genetic material
Bacteria growth requirements H2O, PH (6.0 -*.0, 7.0 is optimal), Temp 0-90 C
Bacteria Media Ground Seaweed-Blood, protein, vitamin, dye, sugar-blood for strep or staph
Bacteria Morpholosy Bacilli=rod shaped, Cocci= round, spirilla= corkscrew
Binary Fission Bacteria split into two clones...ecoli in 20 mins, TB every few days
Cell Staining stains react to chemical in cell wall, gram positive= blue(ampicillin-penicillin), gram negative= red (synthetics-carbenicillin, gentamicin)
Chlamydiae intracellular parasite, requires host, spirilla, parasite of birds and mammals, airborne and direct contact, (trachoma, parrot fever, std's)
conjugation plasmid moves to another bacteria cell and shares info (dna) allowing each to have the same dna
Endospores dormant stage of bacteria- most bacteria but not all have spores, all bacillus & clostidium have endospores-resistant to heat/cold, radiation, toxins, o2 in atmosphere, chemicals, uv light.
Fungi The great decomposer's of nature-made of chitin (sugar)-20-30 C temp range-few cause disease to man-eukariotic- mycology, the study of fungus-spread via spores.
Gram Stain used to ID morphology & antibiotics for treatment-crystal violet (blue)=gram negative...Safranin (red)=Gram positive
Human Fungal Diseases Aspergillosis-fungus ball in chest, coccidiodomycosis=valley fever, histoplasmosis Mississippi valley fever, candidiasis thrush
Hyphae stock of fungi
morphology study of shape and structure- strep = chains, staph = clumps, diplo = two stuck together
mycellium mass of fungi
normal flora microorganisms that grow on the human body that help protect us
plague bubonic-lymph, numonic-airborne
pneumonia biggest killer in history
prokaryotes cell with non membrane bound organelles, enclosed in capsule, no nucleus, flagella...ie bacteria, rickettsia, chlamydiae
rickettsiae intracellular parasite, requires host, rod shaped-coccoid, leaky cytoplasm, parasites of arthropods and insects, passed via eggs (typhus/rmsf/Qfever/lyme disese)
sputum C&S (culture & sensitivity) lab culture that checks for antibiotic results.
strepnemonia most common cause of pneumonia-rusty colored sputum
TB Staining special staining process- very tough, bullet proof shell needs special stain, ziehl-neelsen (acid fast stain) carbonfusion-red= TB+ methylene-blue= TB-
Virus Growth Virus reproduce inside living cells most vaccines are made inside eggs-chicken embryo's
Phillics psychrophillic=0-25 C, Mesophillic=20-45 C, Thermophillic= 45-75 C, Extreme Thermophillic 100+ C
Capneic bacteria that like CO2
Facultative bacteria that may or may not use O2
Coccidiodomycosis Valley Fever
Human Fungal Diseases Coccidiodomycosis (valley fever), candidiasis (thrush)
Nosocomial infection infection acquired in the hospital
Paramyxo Virus stable dna virus, ie measles, mumps, rsv
PCP Pneumocystic Carninii Pneumonia normal flora, acts like fungus, AIDS patients die from it
Protozoa Eucaryotes, lives in or near water, unicellular, few cause disease. cause malaria, dysentery, sleeping sickness
Plasmodium species malaria
Retrovirus Rna virus produces the enzyme reverse transcriptase, allowing it to produce DNA, example is HIV
RSV Respiratory Syncytial Virus, causes bronchiolitis in small children
TB treatment RIPE Rifampin, Isoniazid, Pyrazinamide, Ethamutol
Virus Bad news in a protein coat, intracellular parasite, very tiny, no organelles or nucleus, contains DNA or RNA
Virus Latency viral genetic material is incorporated into host cell but no replication takes place
Virus Lysogeny Lytic cycle=cell is infected and viral replication takes place
Virus Structure surrounded by a protein capsid, fulled with DNA or RNA, spikes on capsid attach to other cells
