Nagging Pests MustBreathe
Obligate anaerobes
Clostridum, bacteroides, and actinomyces
Ananerobes CANT BREATH AIR
Normal flora in GI
AminO2glycosides not effective because these Abx require O2 to enter the cell
They lack catalase, superoxide dismutase and are thus susceptible oxidative damage. Generally foul smelling
Obligate intracellular
Rickettesia, chlamydia
Really Cold, so stay inside
Facultative intracellular
Salmonella, neisseria, brucella, mycobacterium, listeria, fransicella, legionella, yersinia pestis
