Study Notes

Bacteriology and Bacteria Types

  • Bacteriology is the scientific study of bacteria.
  • Non-pathogenic bacteria do not harm humans, whereas pathogenic bacteria can cause diseases.
  • Common bacterial cell shapes include bacilli (rod-shaped), cocci (spherical), and spirilla (spiral-shaped).
  • Bacilli are the most prevalent form of bacterial cells.

Diseases and Infection Spread

  • Communicable diseases, like the common cold, hepatitis, and measles, can be transmitted from one person to another.
  • Viruses cause diseases such as respiratory infections, chickenpox, mumps, and HIV.
  • HIV can be transmitted through blood, sexual fluids, breast milk, and childbirth.

Infection Control and Treatment

  • Infection control consists of sanitation, disinfection, and sterilization.
  • Sanitation involves removing dirt to prevent microbial growth, while disinfection eliminates a broader spectrum of pathogens.
  • Antiseptics are used to prevent microbial growth on skin, but disinfectants may be toxic to skin.
  • Sterilization refers to the complete destruction of all microbes.

Regulatory Agencies and Safety Standards

  • The EPA regulates and approves products used for infection control.
  • OSHA is responsible for enforcing workplace safety and health standards.
  • MSDS sheets provide critical information about product safety, ingredients, and hazards.

Bacterial Growth and Resistance

  • Bacteria can divide into two new cells as they absorb nutrients.
  • In the spore-forming stage, bacteria are resistant to disinfectants.
  • External parasites depend on other organisms for nourishment, while saprophytes thrive on dead organic matter.

Infection Prevention Measures

  • Routine practices for maintaining health include immersing burn areas in cool water and flushing eyes with lukewarm water if chemicals get in.
  • The average salon temperature should be maintained at 70 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Bar soap should be avoided in salons as it can harbor and transmit microbes.
  • An asymptomatic carrier shows no visible symptoms of an infectious disease but can still spread it.
  • Passive immunity is developed when antigens stimulate the body's immune system, often through injections.
  • Broad spectrum disinfectants kill various pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and pseudomonas.

Key Examples of Bacteria and Their Effects

  • Common pus-forming bacteria include staphylococci and streptococci, which can cause serious infections.
  • Immunity refers to the ability of the body to resist infectious agents.
  • General infections impact the entire body rather than localized areas.

Equipment and Procedures

  • Sterilization procedures are particularly essential during electrolysis services.
  • Effective cleaning exerts decontamination, which means surfaces are free from dirt and microbes.
  • An EPA registration number signifies that a product is safe and effective for its intended use.
