40
Q

why Exotoxins of E coli are called Heat labile and heat stable ? meaning of this ?

A

🔬 Heat-Labile (LT) vs. Heat-Stable (ST) Exotoxins in E. coli

  • 💨 Heat-Labile (LT): Denatured @ >60°C
    • Activates Gsα → ↑cAMP
    • ⬆ Cl⁻ secretion, H₂O efflux → Watery diarrhea
    • Similar to Cholera toxin
    • Encoded by plasmid
  • 🔥 Heat-Stable (ST): Resistant to heat (Stable @ 100°C)
    • Activates Guanylate cyclase → ↑cGMP
    • ⬇ Na⁺ reabsorption → Watery diarrhea
    • Types: STa (human) & STb (animal)
    • Encoded by plasmid or transposon

🦠 Diseases: Traveler’s diarrhea (ETEC)
💊 Tx: Supportive, rehydration, ± fluoroquinolones

Q

which bacteria is suspected if colour of macconkey agar media in translucent ?

A

🦠 MacConkey Agar Interpretation

🔍 Translucent/Colorless Colonies = Non-lactose fermenter (NLF) → Possible Pathogen

🚨 Suspected Bacteria (Gram-negative rods):
1️⃣ Salmonella 🥚 (H2S + on TSI)
2️⃣ Shigella 💩 (H2S -)
3️⃣ Proteus (Swarming, Urease +)
4️⃣ Pseudomonas aeruginosa 💚 (Oxidase +, Fruity odor)

🧪 Confirmatory Tests: TSI, H2S, Urease, Oxidase, API

Q

how urine sample collected ?

A

early morning mid-stream urine sample - 5ml - clean dry sterile screw cap container - sterelized test tube

urine sample should be properly labeled

to avoid contamination - urine should be collected after proper cleansing of genitalia
