26
atypical bacterial shapes
pleiomorphic, mycoplasms
27
cocci
spherical or round
28
bacilli

29

vary in size in shape: - star-shaped - rectangular or cube-shaped
34

can change shape lack a rigid cell wall have a strong cell membrane
35
bacterian groupings
1 plane, 2 planes, several planes
36
1 plane
diplo-(pair) strepto-(chain)
37
2 planes
tetrad(packet of 4)
38
several planes
staphylo-(grape-like clusters)
39
Gram staining
-developed by Hans Christian Gram in 1884 -help identify different types of bacteria -uses difference in cell wall composition to differentiate between bacteria - can help determine which type of antibiotics will be the most effective against a particular bacteria
40
Gram positive
cell wall - thick, 2 layers, no outer lipid membrane colour - purple penicillinum - more susceptible
41
Gram negative
cell wall - 3 layers, outer lipid membrane colour - pink, light red penicillinum - less susceptible
42
Eubacteria reproduction
asexual, sexual, spore formation
43
Asexual reproduction
binary fission, no genetic diversity, rapid massive reproduction possible
44
genetic diversity
biological variation that results in different species, helps adaptation
45
sexual reproduction
=conjugation: - pili form bridge between different bacteria - genetic material is transferred -possible genetic diversity - allows bacteria to transfer imunity to antibiotics to other species
46
spore formation
endospores: - formed under conditions of environmental stress - thick-walled and contain genetic information - extremely resistant to heat, drought, cold, UV light and toxic chemicals
46
How do bacteria cause disease
metabolize host - secretion of enzymes to eat host tissue, produce toxins - bacterial waste can be toxic to most cells
47
Controlling growth
sterilization, disinfection, pasteurization, sanitization, preservation, antibiotics
48
sterilization
removal of all microorganisms -surgical instruments
49
disinfection
removal of most microbes -lysol wipes
50
pasteurization
heating product twice to get rid of microorganisms -milk
51
sanitization
microbes removed to a safe public health standart - restaurants
52
preservation
process to delay spoilage of consumable goods -cheese
53
antibiotics
a substance produced by microorganisms that in small amounts inhibits another microorganism -usually produced naturally by a bacteria or fungus
54
Anthrax
-sněť slezinná -serious infectious disease -caused by Bacillus anthracis -haemorrhaging(massive bleeding), tissue decay(rozklad tkaní), ulcer(vřed) -very high mortality - transmission with contact with infected animal or contaminated animal products -potent biological weapon(letter bomb)
55
Lyme disease
=borelióza -early sign: a rash on the skin that looks like a bull`s eye -transmitted through the tick bite -symptoms: muscle and joint pain, fever, stiff neck, flu-like symptoms
56
Gonorrhea
=kapavka -STD -often no symptoms -pain bleeding with sex -swollen genitals
57
Syphilis
-chronic, systematic and infectious -caused by a Treponema pallidum -STD, blood transfusions, during birth -stages: -primary stage - painless ulcer develops and heals on its own within 2-3 weeks -secondary stage - fever, sore throat and weakness -tertiary stage - ulcerated lesion(leze) in the skin, any organ can be affected; blindness, paralysis and insanity
58
