Study Notes
UTI Symptoms and Signs
- Symptoms and signs of UTI caused by E. coli include fever, dysuria, hematuria, and pyuria.
Bacterial Isolate Preservation
- Bacterial isolates are saved using 15-20% Glycerine.
Normal Flora
- The bladder is one part of the human body that does not contain normal flora.
Enteroaggregative E. coli
- Enteroaggregative E. coli is differentiated by not producing ST and LT.
PBP's Function
- High molecular weight PBP's in E. coli function as Acetyl transferase.
Severe Infections
- TSS and other severe infections caused by S. aureus require prolonged intravenous therapy with B-lactamase-resistance penicillin.
Satellism Phenomenon
- Satellism phenomenon occurs when P. aeruginosa grows with other bacterium.
