| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| HAI | Healthcare associated Infections |
| SSI | Surgical site Infections |
| Microbiology | Study of organisms that cannot be seen without aid of a microscope |
| MDR | miltidrug resistant strains |
| Simple Microscope | uses natural light and small convex lenses; handheld lens/ magnifying glass or an eyepiece/ loupe |
| Compound light microscope | Uses a light source, a compounding medium and convex lens ; high resolution up to 1000x |
| Stereo microscope | Provides detailed 3D images of the specimen by reflecting light off the surface of the specimen (dissecting microscope) |
| Scanning Electron microscope (SEM) | uses high powered beam of electrons to interact with the atoms of the sample; creates high resolution image |
| Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) | uses high powered beam of electrons to pass through thin unstained samples ; produces an image that can be magnified up to 10,000x |
| Simple stains | determine the basic shape and structure of cells using single dye (methylene blue or safranin) |
| Differential Staining | categorizes multiple specimens per slide ; Helps identify endospores, gram positive or gram neg sample, and helps you see acid fast samples |
| Gram staining Violet | Is stained with Crystal violet and washed with ethanol; removes purple stain from bacteria |
| Gram staining Red | Is stained with safranin and rinsed with water |
| Aerobic | Lives off air without air it dies |
| Anaerobic | Lives and thrives with out air; dies wen exposed to air |
| Sensitivity test | Colonized organisms exposed to different antibiotics to determine sensitivity |
| Nomenclature | Naming living organisms, plants, animals, microorganisms |
| Linnean System | Seven level hierarchy Kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species |
| Eukaryotes | Complex cellular structure; Eukaryotes do have a nucleus |
| Prokaryotes | Prokaryotes don't have a nucleus; single cell organism |
| Active transport | Moving against concentration gradient from low concentration to high concentration (ATP, endocytosis, exocytosis) |
| Passive transport | Moving along concentration gradient from high to low concentration (diffusion and filtration) |
