Microbio Dental Decks 2013-2014 Flashcards
formalin treated inactivated viruses that given IV
Salk vaccine
live attenuated administered orally
Sabin Vaccine
largest & most complex DNA virus
Poxvirus
Group A Virus
Herpangina & Hand-foot & mouth disease
appear on the throat, palate or tongue
Herpangina
appear on the buccal mucosa & gingiva
Hand-foot & mouth disease
Main cause of common cold
Rhinoviruses
mixture of 3 live attenuated viruses, administered via injection for immnization against
Measles, mumps & Rubella
1st step in viral gene expression
mRNA synthesis
highly effective immunizing agent that enabled the global eradication of smallpox
VACCINIA VACCINE
surface glycoprotein , aids attachment of the virus to the cell wall of susceptible host cells at specific receptor sites
Hemagglutinin (H)
facilitates cell penetration, probably by pinocytosis, & release of replicated viruses from the cell surface effected by budding through the cell membrane
Neuraminidase
Major changes of reassortment of genome pieces
Antigenic shifts
minor changes based on point mutations
Antigenic drifts
caused by an RNA paramyxovirus & transmitted via respiratory droplets
Mumps
caused by influenza viruses A, B & C
Influenza
act to prevent viral replication & are only effective against influenza A
Amantadine & Rimantadine
Steps in the replicative Cycle of Viruses * AEURAR*
- Attachment
- Entry
- Uncoating
- Replication & Viral Protein Production
- Assembly
- Release
ONLY RNA viruses that are double-stranded
Reoviruses
Most common cause of infectious diarrhea in infants & young children
ROTAVIRUSES
Most prominent & characteristic symptom of rubella infection
LYMPHADENOPATHY
Coagulase +
Staphylococcus Aureus
Coagulase -
Staphylococci
gm + cocci that for, clusters like bunches of grapes
S.Aureus
major cause of nosocomial infection & food poisoning
S. Aureus
gm - facultative rod-shapwd bacterium in the same proteobacterial family as E.coli trivially known “enteric” bacteria
Salmonella
Salmonella causes 2 diseases
Salmonellosis- enteric fever (typhoid) bacterial invasion of the bloodstream
Acute gastroenteritis- foodborne infection/intoxication
enzymes that cleave plasminogen producing plasmin which cause liquefaction of fibrin. Used clinicLly removal of bloodclots
UROKINASE
Functions of Acid- Fast Cell Wall Components
- Peptidoglycan
- Mycolic Acid
- Surface protein
- Periplasm
Inhibits mycolic acid biosynthesis & is efficient antimycobacterial agent
Isoniazid
small, rounded nodule produced by infection with M. t. It is the primary lung lesion of pulmonary TB
Tubercle / Ghon focus
result of ghon focus that has healed, fibrosed & sometimes calcified
Ranke complex
Gm + cell wall
- thick (15-80 nm)
- Thick murein layer
- Teichoic acids, polysaccharides serves as attachment sites for bacteriophage
Gm (-) cell wall
- thin (10 nanometers)
- More complex than gm + cell wall
- Thin murein layer
- Lipoproteins
- :Lipoplysaccharides or endotoxin
- Phospholipids
- Proteins
Can tolerate acid
Aciduric
Acid forming
Acidogenic
Main cause of enamel decalcification
Lactic Acid
enteric bacteria because they live in the intestinal tract of human & other animals
E.coli
best known enteric bacteria
Salmonella typhoid fever
Shigella- cause dysentery
3 types of Infections in humans E.coli
- UTI
- Neonatal Meningitis
- Intestinal disease- travellers diarrhea
Process wherein information in the form of nitrogenous bases along an mRNA is translated into the amino acid sequence of a protein
Translation
transfer of DNA via phage particle. Does not require cell to cell contact
Transduction
2 Major Opsonins are
IgG & C3b
Immunoglobulin that is found in the highest concentration in serum samples from px with PD
IgG
PROKARYOTES
- Nucleus absent
- Nuclear membrane absent
- DNA in single, closed loop chromosome
- No protein in chromosome
- No organelles
- Smaller ribosomes
- No mitosis in reproduction
Examples of Prokaryotes
Bacteria & (Rickettsia, Chlamydia, Mycoplasma)
