which bugs stain with zheil nelson
Myocobacterium
Nocardia
Cryptosporidium oocyst
M tb
gram +
acid fast
mycolic acid
acid fast stain
smear is first treated with aniline dye ( carbolfuchism)
the red dye penetrates throught the bacterial cell wall where it binds to MYCOLIC acids..
- then slide is treated with alcohol and hydrochloric acid — this dissolves the outer membrane and non tb bacteriabut the presence of MYOCOLIC acid prevents decolorization of bacteria.
- counter stain methylyne blue is added … non tb will stain blue
serpentine snake like virulence factor
cord factor
myocolic acid forms long BCFA / cord factor
what prevents phagolysosome formation
sulfatides
no rigid wall bugs
CREAM Chlamydia Rickettsia Ehrlichia Anaplasma Mycoplasma/ ureaplasma
MTB replication takes place IN
alveoli
macrophages cannot destroy it initially
cell mediated immunity required — TH1—> IFNgamma—>macrophages—-> TNFalpha
what can destroy MTB
acidification
V/Q is low at
base
Primary TB infection
inhalation
LOWER lobe
unchecked virulence factors
areas of infection — ghon focus in lower lobe
what makes a ghon complex
ghon focus + I/L hilar lymph node
what happens to ghon complex in few weeks
the granuloma gets fibrosed and calcified
this fibrosed and calcified ghon complex is known as RANKE COMPLEX
