Name them ALL NF GNR
GF GNF [3]
Name some GNC while you’re at it
Pseudomonas
Vibrio
Burkholderia pseudomallei
Enterobacteriaceae
- E. Coli, EHEC, STEC ETEC,
- Salmonellas
- Klebsiella, Shigella
GNC:
- N. Meningitidis
- N. gonorrhea
– Both are GN diplococci
Pseudomonas
- properties
- location
- damages
- risk
Florescent, green pigment; Oxidase Neg
WATER
- contact lens, pools; soil
- Important NOCOSOMIAL infections HOSPITALS
- Ventilators - pneumonia
- UTI catheters
- sepsis; Staph Aureus more common;
- Community can - contact lens, spas;
- RED eye from contact is by pseudomonas but this is KERATITIS;
RF: immunocompromised, hospital
– also AB use, the broad spectrum which doesn’t cover this EG most Cephalosporin and Co-amoxiclav;
Burkholderia Pseudomallei
- properties;
- Route of infection
- RF
Tropical Soil Disease
- rain, aerolise
- WRINKLED colonies
- Inhalation, direct contact into cuts
- RF: IC, rice farmers
Damage: Meliodosis
- pneumonia
- sepsis
- ABSCESSES - taken as TB
Vibrio
- name 1 genus and properties
- damage
- location, spread
- virulence
- pathophysiology
- Vaccine
V. Cholerae
- Yellow on TCBS Agar
- careful of epidemics
Location
- consumption of undercooked or raw marine life
- found in shellfish
- eating contaminated food or drinking contaminated water, fecal oral;
- watery painless diarrhea
- vomitting
Virulence
- Pilli, Flagella
- Toxin w A&B subunits
- B binding A for pathophysiology
- A blocks Na+ and HCO3- uptake, increase Cl- and HCO3- secretion
- Vaccine against B antigen
Vibrio parahaemolyticus
Food poisoning
GREEN on TCBS
The AB toxins are two-component protein complexes secreted by a number of pathogenic bacteria. They are named AB toxins due to their components: the “A” component is usually the “active” portion, and the “B” component is usually the “binding” portion.
okie
- clostridium all have this
- vibrio cholera too uwu
Shellfish poisoning?
