    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.
