Basic Bacteriology
Shape
Arrangement
Gram Staining
Cell Wall Characteristics

* Gram Positive
* Gram Negative

Bacterial Growth

* Binary Fission = Exponential Growth
* Four Phases of Growth

Normal Bacterial Flora
Host Defense Mechanisms

* Nonspecific Immunity
o barriers
o inflammatory response
* Specific Immunity
o Passive
o Active
+ humoral
+ cell-mediated

Clinical Microbiology

* Gram Positive Cocci
* Gram Positive Bacilli
* Gram Negative Cocci
* Gram Negative Bacilli
* Anaerobes
* Spirochetes
* Mycobacteria

Gram Positive Cocci

* Staphylococcus
* Streptococcus

Staphylococcus

* S. aureus, S. epidermidis, S. saprophyticus
* S. aureus

Streptococcus

* S. viridans
o oral flora
o infective endocarditis
S. pyogenes

* Group A, beta hemolytic strep
* pharyngitis, cellulitis
* rheumatic fever
+ fever
+ migrating polyarthritis
+ carditis
+ immunologic cross reactivity
* acute glomerulonephritis
+ edema, hypertension, hematuria
+ antigen-antibody complex deposition
S. pneumoniae

Gram Negative Cocci

* Neisseria
o meningitidis
o gonorrhea
* Moraxella catarrhalis

Gram Positive Bacilli

* Clostridium
* Bacillus
* Corynebacterium
* Listeria
* Actinomyces
* Nocardia

C. tetani
C. botulinum

* Descending weakness-->paralysis
* diplopia, dysphagia-->respiratory failure

C. perfringens
C. diphtheriae

* Fever, pharyngitis, cervical LAD
* thick, gray, adherent membrane
* sequelae-->airway obstruction, myocarditis
* colony morphology
L. monocytogenes
Actinomyces

* Part of normal oral cavity flora
* 50% of infections occur in face & neck
* forms abscesses with sulfur granules
* draining sinus tracts

Nocardia
Gram Negative Bacilli

* Facultative Anaerobes
o Respiratory
# Haemophilus
# Bordetella
# Legionella
o Zoonotic
# Yersinia
# Francisella
# Pastuerella

o Bacteroides

Enterobacteriaceae
K. rhinoscleromatis
* Catarrhal
o purulent rhinorrhea
* Granulomatous
o mucosal nodules
* Cicatricial
o fibrosis
o stenosis

H. influenzae
Legionella

* Community and Nosocomial pneumonia
* contaminated water sources
B. pertussis
Zoonotic Gram Negative Rods

Manifestations of Syphilis
Lyme Disease

* Cutaneous lesions
o erythema chronicum migrans
* Nonspecific symptoms
o malaise, fatigue, headache, fevers, chills, myalgias, arthralgias, lymphadenopathy
* Late manifestations
o neurologic
o cardiac

M. tuberculosis

* Pulmonary disease (82%)
* Extrapulmonary disease (18%)

ENT Manifestations of TB

* Scrofula
o matted lymphadenopathy: posterior triangle
* Laryngeal TB
o edema, ulcers, polypoid changes: arytenoids
* Oral TB
o painless ulcers: tongue
* Aural TB
o thickened TM-->hyperemia-->multiple perfs
o thin, watery otorrhea-->thick, cheesy d/c
M. leprae

Antibiotic Therapy

* Identify infecting organism
* Evaluate drug sensitivity
* Target site of infection
* Drug safety/side effect profile
* Patient factors
* Cost

Classification of Antibiotics

* Bacteriostatic
* Bactericidal
* Chemical Structure
* Spectrum of Activity
* Mechanism of Action

Mechanism of Action
