The Hazardous Communications Act requires this.   All chemical manufacturers or importers must acess the potential hazzards associated with thier products.  
🗑
The printed requirement of chemical hazards.   Material Data Sheet (MSDS)  
🗑
Effective cleaner for blood, and bloody fluids on Non-porous surfaces.   Hospital disinfectant  
🗑
Disinfectant not recommended for salon use, but is proven to kill specific bacteria only transmitted through coughing.   Tuberculocidal disinfectant  
🗑
Exist to protect professional and consumer health, safety, and welfare.   State regulatory agencies.  
🗑
Guidelines written by both State and Federal Legislatures that determine scope of practice.   Laws  
🗑
Guidelines establishing specific standards of conduct.   Ruules or Regulations.  
🗑
The invasion of body tissues by disease causing pathogenic bacteria   Infection  
🗑
Harmful organisms that are spread from one person to another.   Infectious disease  
🗑
Four types of potentially harmful organisms nail techs must be aware of.   Bacteria, Fungi, viruses, and parasites  
🗑
Bacteria that is not harmful and often useful.   Nonpathogenic  
🗑
Bacteria that is harmful and can cause disease or infection.   Pathogenic  
🗑
Transmission of blood or body fluids by physical contact.   Direct Transmission  
🗑
Transmission of blood or bodily fluid by contact with a contaminated object.   Indirect transmission  
🗑
Nonscientific synonyms for disease producing bacteria.   Microbes/Germs  
🗑
Any organism that can only be seen by a microscope.   Microrganism  
🗑
An organism that grows, feeds, and shelters on or in another organism without contributing to the survival of that organism.   Parasite  
🗑
Poisonous substances produced by microorganisms.   Toxins  
🗑
A parasitic submicroscopic particle that infects and resides in cells of biological organisms, and replicates by taking over host cells reproduction function.   Virus  
🗑
Round-shaped bacteria that appear alone or in groups.   Cocci  
🗑
Pus forming bacteria that grow in clusters like a bunch of grapes, causing abscesses, pustules, and boils   Staphlococci  
🗑
Pus forming bacteria arranged in curved lines resembling a string of beads.   Streptococci  
🗑
Short rod shaped bacteria   Bacilli  
🗑
Spiral or corkscrew shaped bacteria   Spirilla  
🗑
Streptococci bacteria infections that are most common   Strep throat and blood poisoning.  
🗑
Bacilli bacteria infections that are most common.   Tetanus, typhoid fever, tuberculosis and diphtheria.  
🗑
Spirilla bacteria infections that are most common.   Syphilis and Lyme disease.  
🗑
This means self movement. Cocci show active self movement transmitting by air, dust, or within the substances they settle.   Motility  
🗑
The hair-like extensions that bacilli and spirilla use to move. They use a whip-like motion provide locomotion in liquid.   Flagella or cilia  
🗑
The liquid in the outer cell wall   Protoplasm  
🗑
The cycle in which bacteria grow, and reproduce   Active Stage  
🗑
The division of cells   Mitosis  
🗑
How often bacteria cells reproduce on average.   20-60 minutes  
🗑
The nail pathogen Staphylococcus reproduces this often.   27-30 minutes  
🗑
In this cycle certain bacteria cover themselves in a wax like substance and go dormant when conditions are not favorable and awaken when they are.   Inactive or Spore-forming stage  
🗑
A fluid created by tissue inflammation.   Pus  
🗑
Condition in which the body reacts to protect itself from injury, irritation, or infection.   Inflammation  
🗑
Are included in signs of infection   Redness, heat, pain, and swelling.  
🗑
Extreme sensitivity to certain foods, chemicals, or other normally harmless substances   Allergy  
🗑
The presence or possible presence of blood or other infectious materials on an items surface. It can also be visible debris like dust hair or skin   Contamination  
🗑
Disease that is spread by contact from one person to another.   Contagious Disease  
🗑
The removal of blood or other potentially infectious materials   Decontamination  
🗑
Determination of the nature of a disease   Diagnosis  
🗑
Abnormal condition of all or part of the body   Disease  
🗑
Contact with broken skin, blood, body fluid, or other potentially infectious materials while performing services.   Exposure Incident  
🗑
Illness resulting from conditions of employment   Occupational Disease  
🗑
Disease caused by parasites like lice, mites, and ringworm   Parasitic Disease  
🗑
Disease produced by organisms including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites   Pathogenic Disease  
🗑
Disease that affects the body as a whole often due to under or over functioning of internal glands or organs   Systemic Disease  
🗑
Antibiotics are only useful in treating this type of infection.   Bacterial Infections  
🗑
This infection is difficult to kill without harming the body in the process. Antibiotics do not kill this infection   Viral Infections.  
🗑
Parasitic submicroscopic particle that infects the cells of a biological organism.   Virus  
🗑
Disease causing microorganisms carried in the blood or body fluids   Bloodborne Pathogens  
🗑
Most common Bloodborne pathogens   Hepatitus and HIV  
🗑
This Bloodborne pathogen can live on surfaces outside the body and when contracted damages the liver.   Hepatitus  
🗑
Microscopic plant parasites including mold, mildew,and yeast   Fungi  
🗑
Affects plants or can grow on inanimate objects but is not infectious to humans in a nail salon.   Mildew  
🗑

🗑
Ability to resist infection developed through healthy living   Natural Immunity  
🗑
Ability to resist infection that the body develops after overcoming a disease or through inoculation.   Acquired Immunity  
🗑
Chemical Products that destroy all bacteria, fungi and viruses on surfaces.   Disinfecting
