|
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aciduric bacteria | bacteria resistent to acid--survive stomachs full acidity--grow when stomach is empty & at higher pH--produce urease--released as a protein in breakdown product
🗑
|
||||
| Antiseptics | milder chemicals--(anti--against--septic--putrifaction or make rotten) used on human flesh
🗑
|
||||
| Aseptic | without contamination
🗑
|
||||
| Autoclave | sterilization using steam--large pressure cooker
🗑
|
||||
| Bactericides | disinfectants that kill bacteria
🗑
|
||||
| Bacteriostatic agents | inhibit growth but do not kill bacteria
🗑
|
||||
| Biocides | nonspecific agent
🗑
|
||||
| Cationic detergents | positive charge--may dissolve microbial membranes--leads to microbial death
🗑
|
||||
| Chemiclaves | use harsh chemicals, such as highly reactive gas ethylene oxide--in a sealed environment, or gamma irradiation
🗑
|
||||
| Disinfection | reduce the viable numbers of living organism--process that decreases numbers of microbes--may not destroy all of them
🗑
|
||||
| Flash pasteurization | 71.5 degrees C for 15 seconds
🗑
|
||||
| Fungicides | disinfectants that kill fungi
🗑
|
||||
| Fungistatic agents | inhibit growth, but do not kill fungi
🗑
|
||||
| Halides | iodine and chlorine--due to chemical similarities--bromine used in hot tubs --evaporates more slowly than chlorine/iodine--kill bacteria--reduce numbers rather than kill all microbes
🗑
|
||||
| Iatrogenic disease | term related to nosocomial disease--physician-induced disease
🗑
|
||||
| Incineration | burning to sterilize material
🗑
|
||||
| Nosocomial diseases | acquired in the hospital setting
🗑
|
||||
| Pasteurization | Louis Pasteur--heats foods such as milk high enough to kill most vegitative cells--30 min. at 63 degrees C
🗑
|
||||
| Phenol | harsh--used to wash handes before surgery--generally replaced with milder derivatives of phenol call phenolics
🗑
|
||||
| Phenol coefficient | effectiveness of new agent divided by effectiveness of phenol--used to compare all disinfectants
🗑
|
||||
| Phenolics | milder derrivitives of phenol
🗑
|
||||
| Resident organisms | organism that is at its normal site of growth
🗑
|
||||
| Sanitize | treated to reduce microbes to a safe level
🗑
|
||||
| Sterilization | kill all life on an object
🗑
|
||||
| Transient organisms | organism that does not attach and servive on a surface
🗑
|
||||
| Ultrafiltration | material suspended in water and sterilized--ultrafilter--has pore sizes less than the smalles bacterium--gases sterilized this way
🗑
|
||||
| Ultrapasteurization | 82 degrees C for 3 seconds
🗑
|
||||
| Virucides | kill viruses
🗑
