exam 7 Flashcards
- bacteria cell membrane are the same as eukaryotic except
- difference between our chromasome and bacteria chromasome
- diff between our ribosomes and theirs
- it doesn have sterol - such as cholesterol
- they have one single circular chromasome and have plasmids
- they have 70s instead of 80 s

Lipoteichoic teichoic acid attatch to____ (gram - or positive)
WTA- petpidoglycan g+
LTA- cell wall on g+
LPS
gram - or +
acid fast
gram negative
Peptiglycan
gram - or +
acid fast
both - and +
talk about clinical relavence for septic shock
lipopolysacharide of cell membrane causes this
Nocardia genus
gram - or +
acid fast
spores?
acid fast
no spores
Mycobacterium genus
gram - or +
acid fast
spores
genus of TB. Acid fast
no spores
what stucture gives you K antigen or capsule
glycocaylyx
what is selective activity
drugs are more toxic to bacteria than host
bacillus
gram - or +
acid fast
spores?
G+
spores+
- sex pili = conjugated pili
- common pili= fimbriae
G- or +
acid fast
- sex pili = conjugated pili : G-
- common pili= fimbriae: G + and -
- glycocaylx= capsule and slime layer
- flagellum
G- or +
acid fast
- G + and - for both flagellum and glycocaylx
which media is used for fastidious micor organsism
enriched (has complex + growth factor)
Obligate vs facultative
obligate: picky about where they live
facultative: not picky where they live
Obligate aerobe vs facultative aerob vs obligate anaerobe
(enzyme for ROS?)
Obligate aerobe : need oxgen, Yes enzyme
facultative aerobe: does need but can use it, yes ezyme
obligate anaerobe: oxigen is toxic; no ezyme
what is…
capnophiles:
halophiles:
osmophiles:
capnophiles:need high co2
halophiles: need salt
osmophiles: need sugar
what does it take for a fungas to be pathogen
grow at 37 degrees celciuc
where is ergosterols found in fungi
cell membrane
name componenets of cell well of fungi and purpose
* chitin -
* Beta glucan-
- chitin - polysach rigidity
- Beta glucan- polysach serves as pamp
what is the target for most antifungal
ergosterol in the cell membrane
what temp does dimorphic fungi turn from mold to yeast
from yeast to mold
- mold to yeast = 37
- yeast to mold = 25
in terms of antifungals how do these work…
* terbinafine
* azoles
* amphotericin Nystatin
* echinocandins
- terbinafine- stop synthesis of ergosterol
- azoles-stop synthesis of ergosterol
- amphotericin Nystatin- punch hole in cell membrane
- echinocandins- stop synthesis of glucan
Re: Antifungal
what is ….
propholactic tx
preemptive
empiric
definitive
propholactic tx - give just in case like with pt with HIV
preemptive - + diseas but no sx or symptoms
empiric - based on signs and sx
definitive - based on defined dz
what is primary mycoses
when a fungus can only be given in a certain area. Not given person to person
