Gram Negative Fermentative (Enterobacteriaciaeae) Flashcards
General Characteristics of Enterobacteriaciaeae
- Facultative Anaerobe
- Catalase Positive, Oxidase Negative
- Glucose Fermenters
- Nitrate Reducers
- Motile with Preitrichous flagella
All enterobacteriaceae are motile except;
mnemonics: SKY
Shigella
Klebsiella
Yersinia
All are normal flora of the Gut except;
Shigella
Salmonella
Yersinia
True Enteric Pathogens
H antigen
Flagellar antigen
Heat labile, Protein
O antigen
Somatic antigen
Heat stable, Lipopolysaccharide
K antigen
Capsular antigen
Masks O antigen
K antigen
When somatic antigen is negative, but the capsular antigen is positive, what should you do next?
Boil for 15 minutes
Capsular antigen is heat labile that wil destroy K antigen
K antigen of S. typhi
Vi antigen
Most common cause of UTI
E. coli
Virulence factor causing 75% of nenonatal meningitis cases
K1 Capsular antigen
Infection cause by E. coli
mnemonics: DUNG
Diarrhea
UTI
Nenonatal meningitis
Gram (-) Sepsis
Identical to shigatoxin by Shigella dysenteriae
Verotoxin I
The most severe form manifestation of EHEC
Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS)
Transmitted with ingestion of Hamburgers or undercooked meat
Enterohemorragic E. coli (EHEC)/STEC/VTEC
a.k.a Shiga toxin producing (STEC), Verotoxin producing (VTEC)
Most common isolate of EHEC
E. coli O157:H7
SMAC
Medium of isolating E. coli O157:H7
Colonies of E. coli O157:H7 in sMAC
Colorless - Nonfermenter of Sorbitol
Associated to Traveller’s Diarrhea
a.k.a Montezumas’s revenge or Turista
Enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC)
Toxin produced by ETEC Diarrhea
Heat Labile Toxin
similar to Cholarogenic toxin
Causes Bloody type of Diarrhea or Dysentery type of Diarrhea
EnterInvasive E. coli (EIEC)
Infective dose of EIEC
> 10^6
Infantile or Pediatric Diarrhea
Diarrhea of Infants
EnteroPathogenic E. coli (EPEC)
Diarrhea in Malnourished children
EnteroAggregative E. coli (EAEC)
EAEC adheres to Hep2 cells packed in a ________________ pattern.
Stacked Brick Pattern
Chronic diarrhea in HIV patients
