is salmonella normal flora in humans
no
what does salmonella typhimurium and enteritidis cause
gastroenteritis
what causes typoid fever
s. typhi
s. paratyphi
what does s. cholerastis cause
septicemia
how is salmonella transmitted
ingestional of food contaminated by animal feces

eggs
what is the incubation otime for salmonella
12-36 hours
what are the symptoms of gastroenteritis
nausea, vomiting, FEVER, diarrhea, abdominal pain.
what cell types does salmonella prefer
invades and replicates in epithelial cells

replicates in macrophages as the prefered host.

no spread into blood typically
what is a related disease that comes after gasteroenteritis
reiters syndrome-autoimmune

cant see, cant pee, cant bend the knee

inflamed conjunctiva, urethritis, arthritis of large joints
what is treatment for salmonella gastroenteritis
none in mild

ciprofloxacin in severe cases
what is the major virulence factor in serotyping for S. typhi
k antigent -Vi
what is the typical transmission for typhoid fever?
person to person transmission via fecal oral route
what is a factor that increases susceptibilty to typhoid fever?
hemolytic anemias
what is the moa of typoid fever
infection begins in intestines with no diarrhea, replicates in macrophages then invades into the blood stream and colonizes spleen and bone marrow
what are the symptoms of typhoid fever
sustained bacteremia with high fever
dissemination to kidney gall bladder peyers patches skin,

rose spots on abdomen

eventually sepsis in severe cases
how is typhoid fever diagnosed
culture from stool
how is typhoid fever treated
ciprofloxin
two vaccines
what are vibrio, camplylobacter, helicobacter classified as
enteric gram negative bacilli

bacilli-curved or spiral shaped
what does vibro cause
cholera
caused by Vibrio cholerae
what serotype causes cholera
Oantigen - O1 or O139

non O1 is associated with mild diarrhea
what is the moa of V. cholerae exotoxins
affects adenylate cyclase to permanently turn on this increases cAMP which leads to constant fluid secretion in the intestinal epithelial cells.
what is the target area for cholera
the small intestine
What are the symptoms of cholera
massive diarhea and fluid loss

NO FEVER bc NO INVASION
what is transmission of campylobacter
fecal oral often on beef chicken and pork
what is the incubation period of campylobacter
3-5 days
what is the symptoms of campylobacteria
diarrhea,
persistant high fever
colonized small intestine
what are two associated conditions that are brought on by camplyobacter infection
rieters syndrome-cant see, pee, bend knee
guillain barre syndrome-flacid paralysis
how is camplyobacter diagnosed
difficult to diagnose
isolate on special media
difficult to culture
how is camplyobacter treated
fluoroquinolones or erythromycin in severe cases
How is campylobacter prevented
proper hygine during food prep

NO VACCINES
what are the two enteric gram neg rods
shagella
e-coli
what are the TSI results for psudomonas aeruginosa?
glu-neg
lac-neg
gas-neg
H2S-neg
what are the TSI results for shigella sonnei
glu - pos
lac-neg
gas-neg
H2S- neg
what are the TSI results for salmonella typhi
glu-pos
lac-neg
gas-neg
H2S-pos
what are the TSI results for E coli
glu-pos
lac-pos
gas-pos
H2S- neg
what are the TSI results for Proteus mirabiis
Glu-pos
lac-pos
gas-neg
H2S-pos
what is O antigen
carbohydrate LPS repeat surface of bacteria
what is the H- antigen
flagella
what is the K antigen
capsule
what are the O, H , K antigens used for
serotyping to find out what species of bacteria is there
where does E coli come from
normal flora of the intestina
What are the two types of ways ecoli causes disease
normal flora that escapes from teh intestinal tract and colonize other body sites

exogenous strain that pick up new virulence factors and can infect the intestines
what do E coli use pili for
adherence to mucosal surfaces
in disease E. coli picks up new types of pili that allow them to adhere in places they normally would and in amounts that they normal wouldnt be able to achieve which causes the disease.
what are some virulence factors for e.coli
enterotoxins
Heat labile toxin is what
a cholera like toxin that activates adenylate cyclase which leads to fluid secretion only it is made by a disease causeing strain of E. Coli
what is heat stable toxin
stimulates guanylate cycles to lead to fluid secretion/diarrhea. in ecoli
what is shiga like toxin
found in e. coli enterohemorrhagic colitis
leads to bloody diarrhea
bc it actually kills cells
identical to shiga toxins
associated with hemolytic uremic syndrome
can cause renal endothelias cell death
does it by inhibiting protien synthesis

found in EHEC strains of E. coli
how are e. coli classified
by their virulence factors and pathology
what is EHEC e. coli
enterohemorrhagic
what is ETEC e. coli
enterotoxigenic
what is EPEC e. coli
enteropathogenic
what is EIEC e. coli
enteroinvasisve
what is EAggEC e. coli
enteroaggregative
which type of ecoli is spread animal to human
EHEC
What additional virulence factor other than the toxi do EHEC and ETEC have
