    Study Notes

    Types of Hosts

    • Four types of hosts exist: Intermediate host, Transfer host, Vector, and Reservoir host

    Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus)

    • S. aureus produces resistant strains against Methicillin
    • S. aureus is resistant to Drying
    • S. aureus is resistant to Light
    • S. aureus is resistant to Heat
    • S. aureus is resistant to NaCl (sodium chloride)

    Positive Lance-shaped Diplococcus

    • Streptococcus pyogenes (S. pyogenes) and Streptococcus pneumonia (S. pneumonia) are positive, lance-shaped diplococcus
    • S. pyogenes and S. pneumonia undergo lysis in a few minutes with 5-10% CO2
    • S. pyogenes and S. pneumonia undergo lysis in a few minutes with 10% Ox bile
