A

Thalidomide

28
Q

Propionbacterium Acnes is off what? What does the Benzoyl Peroxide do?

A

Sebum in the pores Dissolves sebum

29
Q

What does Salicyclic acid do for P. Acnes?

What does Retinol do for P. Acnes?

A

Sloughes off keratin

Increases Cell Turnover

30
Q

What does lowstein-jensen media or middlebrook agar show up for?

A

TB skin test, use NAOH to make sure that the sample is good

31
Q

What size of a TB skin test is the most concerning?

A

Less than 5 mm, do not have a good cell mediated response

32
Q

What does the Buffered charcoal show in the augar, if something grows? What is the virulence factor of this bacteria?

A

Nocardia Cord Factor (Mycolic Acid and Trehalose)

33
Q

What allows nocardia to survive in the macrophages and dendritic cells?

A

Failure of phagosome and lysosome fusion

34
Q

What grows on buffered charcoal? What grows on black tellurite?

A

Nocardia -> aerial hyphaie, very fastidious bacteria C. Diptheria

35
Q

What grows on chocolate agar? What grows on MaConkey agar? What color will this turn with lactose?

A

Chocolate: used for cultivation of bacteria that need components from RBCs (especially hemoglobin) but lack enzymes to break down blood cells on their own (for fastidious organisms)

MaConkey: only grows gram negative, lyses bile salts that are dealing with peptidoglycan construction Pink

36
Q

What grows on blood agar? What grows on Bordet-Genu or Rogan-Lowe agar? What type of augar is this, what is a better way to do this?

A

Blood Augar allows us to determine if the patient can lyse RBC or not B. Pertussis, use PCR, takes 7 days to grow via the augar
