QuestionAnswer
Define Genus Family classification of organisms.
Define Genera Plural of genus
Define Anaerobic Cannot tolerate free oxygen
Define organic Alive or produced by a living organism.
Flaccid Flappy/lacking firmness, resilience or muscle tone.
Pathology Study and diagnosis of disease through examination of the organs, tissues, and body fluids.
Anoxia Absence of oxygen.
Antitoxins Antibodies with the ability to neutralize a specific toxin. Borrowed from someone else, and induces passive immunity.
Antiserum Blood serum containing antibodies from another. Passive immunity.
Crepitus The grating, crackling, or popping sounds and sensations experienced under the skin and joints.
Septicemia Bacteria in blood
Silent Carrier Individual who's not sick yet passes the disease to others
Bacterins Suspension of killed bacteria
Undolent fever Temperature rises, lowers, then rises above normal again.
List 7 organisms in Enterobacteria ACE Family E.Coli, Citrobacter, Enterobacter, Klebisella, Salmonella, Shegella, Protius.
What does bactera in the Enterobacteria ACE family have to contain in order to be in this family? Gram negative, ferment dextrose, non-spore forming, aerobic, rods, reduce nitrates to nitrites
List 3 Things Required to Grow Bacteria Carbon, Water, Nitrite
List Pathogenic Cocci Strep/Staph
List Non-Pathogenic Cocci Microlococci
Anaerobic bacteria Can not tolerate oxygen
What does aerobic bacteria have that anaerobic bacteria doesn't have? Aerobic has the enzyme oxidase.
How many bacteria genera are Spores? Clostridia, Bascilles
Gram Positive/Gram Negative Protiens/Lipopolysaccharides
Gram Positive Cocci Streptococci - Single plane = Long chain Staphylococci - Random planes = Grape clusters Microlococci - Alternating planes = Cubes
Non Spore Forming Genera Listeria Corynebacterium Erysipelothrix
Spore Forming Genera Bascilles -Anthracis Clostridium -Botulinum -Tetanae -Perfringens -Septicum -Novyi
Gram Negative Cocci Gonorrhae
Gram Negative Rods Bacilli -E.Coli -Citrobacter -Enterobacter -Klebsiella -Shigella -Salmonella -Proteus
3 Species in The Genus Clostridium that cause diseases with toxins only Tetani Botulinum Perfrengens
Subterminal/Terminal Produced at the end
What are the gas producers of Clostridium that cause gas gangrene? All Clostridium are gas producers. But the three most common are Perfringens, Novyi, and Septicum.
List the non-fermentors Shegella Salmonella Protius
List the most common causes of UTI Protius E.Coli
List the 5 Basic Sugars Dextrose Maltose Sucrose Lactose Mannitol
Food intoxication Caused by endotoxins (matabolic product of growth) produced by bacteria growing in the food we consume.
Difference in food intoxication/infection Intoxication is caused by the toxins released. Infection is caused by the microorganism itself.
Gram Stain process Crysta violet - Primary stain - 1 minute Gram's iodine - Mordant - 2 Minutes Ethel Alcohol - Decolorizer - 30 Secs Saffronin - Counterstain - 1 Min Water - Rinse
Lipopolysaccharides Endotoxins (toxins with the cell released only when the cell dies)
Body of bacteria Cell membrane - Semi permeable Cell wall - permeable Flagellum
Spore Ensures survival
Fission or binary fission When a cell divides in two. Mother/daughter cells are identical.
Antiseptics/Disinfectants Changes surface tension Oxidizes coagulates proteins
Types of Diseases Contagious infectious Non-contagious infectious Genetic Nutritional Traumatic Allergic
Method Red Positive Acid end product
Method Red Negative Alkaline end product
Fast fermentors positive Klebsiella Citrobacter Enterobacter
Lactose Non Fermentor Shegella
Negative chemotaxis Swarming
Types of Brucella (Gram negative) Neletesis Suis Abortus
Brucella Neltesis Gram Negative. Host is a goat
Brucella Suis Host is a pig
Brucella Abortus Host is cattle. Also known as Bangs Disease/Brucilosus. Causes abortions in the first pregnancy in an animal. Intercellular pathogen. Runs in reproductive tract and the mammary glands. Shed through milk thus pasturizing milk.
Undolent fever A temperature that rises above normal, falls below normal, than rises above normal consistently.
Pseudomonous Gram Negative. Pseudomonous Arugonosa (Blue-green pus organ) Aerobe. Potent odor. Kills all other bacteria. Doesn't ferment dextrose. Opportunistic pathogen. Hemolytic. Common everywhere.
Pasteurella Rods. Pasteurella Multacida: very characteristic smell. Broad range of hosts. Most common in cat bites. Common in respitory system. All motile.
Hepatization Liver-like
Tuturences Rabbit fever
Anklose Causes joints not to move
Bortotella Gram negative, not highly antigenic
Mycobacterium Genus contains tuberculosis. Gram positive. Use acid fast stain. Most prevelant in lungs. Affects any system of body.
Acid fast Won't wash out of bacteria.
Lepri/Leprosy Damages sensory nerves. Placed in controlled atomosphere with antibiotics. All mycobacterium
Tuberculosis Santitorium People went here to live who have tuberculosis, away from the world.
Paratuburculosis (Yawnies) Not effective in humans. Host is cattle. Wasting disease.
Tuberculan (TB Test) Started out as immunizing product then became a diagnostic test. Once positive, always positive.
Antibiotics Majority are bacteria sidle. Few bacteria static.
Bacteria Static Holds down bacteria so body can kill it
Broad spectrum Can treat anything.
Pen. Gram Positive and Streptamicin Gram Negative Combined is PenStrep - makes it a broad spectrum antibiotic. Influence each other. 1st two usable antibiotics.
True antibiotic One produced by a living organism.
Streptamicin Good intramuscular injection to control infection.
Amoxicillan Spinoff of penicillan
Virus: How different from bacteria Obligant parasite. Nonliving particle. Contains either RNA/DNA, never both. Antibiotics are ineffective. Makes you more susceptible to bacterial infection. No treatment except supportive. Immune system is ultimate treatment.
AIDS Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome
Viruses cell makeup No cell membrane/wall. Free living organism.
Free living organism Carry on the functions of life on cell free media.
Self-limited Viruses are short lived. Causes positive cell reaction.
Viruses are protein in nature.
Most common viral disease Common cold
Treatment for common cold Scientific neglect and tencture of time. 353 isolated, lasts 7 days.
Pox Virus Largest of the viruses by size. (Always big enough to see with a light microscope)Every animal has its own pox virus. Small pox only affects us. 1st vaccine to date. Related vaccine.
Herpes More herpes than any other virus. Herpes Symplex, Chicken pox --> most common herpes virus. Notorious for causing disease, stays in ganglion of cells, shows when stressed.
Polio Salve caccine developed into oral vaccine. Can carry Polio in gi tract (not a form of paralytic polio) Still a problem in 3rd world countries, Not eradicated to the point where we can't vaccinate
Jenner noticed what? difference in milk maids thus discovering small pox
HIV Virus Not the same as AIDS, number one cause of AIDS. To transport from one media to another, must transfer a living cell. HIV reduces immune system.
Iron Lung made to treat Polio patients, first respirator ever created.
Influenza Virus As common as the common cold. Mutates rapidly. Infects cells all over body. To prevent maintain a highly functional immune system.
Mutation Any change
Propogate Increase in numbers.
McCoy Cell Line Growing a cell from a culture. Avian Embryo is the most common way vaccines are produced becaues they have all the same tissues humans do.
Most common method of propogation. Most popular virus production is cell culture and Avian embryo.
Influenza Vaccine 5 Strains in vaccine. 2 Standard, 3 based on world standards. The flu mutates very rapidly and changes antigenic structure.
Wart Virus: Papoloma Virus Subject to blood system, antigens kill the virus. Can occur anywhere on body.
Measels If no immunity, person is susceptible.
Mumps Typically childhood disease. Tendency to settle in male testicles causing swelling/pain. Possible to get multiple times.
Transferred by Mosquitos: Encephalitis, West Nile Virus
Types of Encephalitis From the most pathogenic to the least: Venezualan St. Louis Eastern Western
ALL Viral Diseases Are self limiting (stimulates antibodies; ex. papaloma virus) No treatment (except supportive) Can be vaccinated against
ALL antiseptics/disinfectants must be in contact with the organisms to kill bacteria to be effective. Doesn't sterilize. Takes time. Only works in: oxidation, coagulation of proteins, and changes surface tension.
Phenolic compounds 2nd most used antiseptics
Ammonia Compounds Chlorine is primary (most common) Iodine - more effective but stains any natural fiber. Iodine is highly corrosive (oxidising agent)
Tincture of iodine Alcohol is carrier/good antiseptic
Visohex Controls MRSA, carcinogen, causes scrotum cancer in baby boys 1/100,000
