Medically important Bacteria Bacteria are single celled (unicellular) microbes. Medically important bacteria can grow in the human free-living prokaryotic organisms. body temperature: Some Bacteria are pathogenic and are important (cause of disease) to the human body systems  The genetic information is contained in a single loop of DNA suspended in a jelly- like substance called cytoplasm. Many bacteria live with us as normal flora on the skin, nose, mouth or intestine, and counts more Bacteria Grow independently than human cells. Investigated in the laboratory by culture media which Normal flora is very beneficial in its original body provide nutrients “food” for bacteria, at 37oC site e.g. mechanical barrier against harmful bacteria can be seen under light microscope pathogens and help in digestion…etc. Normal flora may also cause illness if transferred to abnormal site… e.g. oral to blood stream. The human body, which contains about 1013 cells, routinely harbours about 1014 bacteria. NORMALLY, No bacteria in Sterile body sites e.g. blood, heart, bone, CSF..  (Poor hygiene, accumulation of bacteria) What are bacteria? Name (Nomenclature) Shapes and arrangements Bacteria are single celled prokaryote (unicellular) microbes. 3 basic shapes determined by the rigid bacterial cell wall: All organisms have a name consisting of two parts: the Genus followed by the species a The genetic information is contained in a single Staphylococcus aureus loop of DNA suspended in a jelly-like substance called cytoplasm. of Some bacteria have an extra circle of genetic Escherichia coli material called: a plasmid→ contains genes that give the bacterium some advantage over other Bacterial Size: bacteria → e.g. a gene that makes the bacterium The diameter of most cocci are about 1.0μm resistant to a certain antibiotic. bacilli Most rods are about 2-3μm in length and 0.3- 0.5μm (diameter) Bacteria seen under light microscope Plasmed can bactin give torecisteantibiotic ability Basic Bacterial Structures Cell Wall Is the outer covering layer of the bacterial cell (support the cytoplasmic Structures found in membrane). all bacteria ’ Rigid structure that maintains the bacterial shape ’ Common of all Bacteria (except Mycoplasma) (Invariant structures) It is composed of : basic layer & additional layer iiiiiiiiii Streptococcus Cell wall Basic layer (peptidoglycan ) Cell membrane - Formed of carbohydrate cross-linked by peptide chains(protein) E. coli - It is responsible for rigidity of cell wall. Ribosomes i Nucleoid - Good target for antibacterial drugs (antibiotics). why? - Peptidoglycan is unique to bacterial cells (not found in human) Borrelia pas e.g. penicillins and cephalosporins, inhibit its synthesis. in Compositions of the Cell Wall: Compositions of the cell wall: - Basic layer (peptidoglycan ) Invariant structure Bacteria are classified according to thickness of peptidoglycan layer into - Additional layer 2. Cell membrane two main groups: Other names: ’ Bacteria have Thick peptidoglycan, ’ Bacteria have Thin peptidoglycan, forms 80% of Cell wall forms 20% of Cell wall - In Gram +ve bacteria it is formed of teichoic acid. Cytoplasmic membrane, Plasma membrane This composition determines the cell’s reaction to Gram stain: ----------------------------------------------------------------- It is a thin elastic structure 5 – 10 µm thick (e.microscope) ’ Thick peptidoglycan a ’ Thin peptidoglycan - Gram –ve bacteria has outer membrane layer formed of:  retain Gram stain  loose the Gram stain (lipopolysaccharide=endotoxin) and protein Composed of a phospholipid bilayer  Gram +ve bacteria This outer layer protect peptidoglycan & prevents the permeation of many  Gram –ve bacteria. antibiotics makes Gram-negative bacteria more resistant to antibiotics than Gram-positive ones Example: um Vancomycin antibiotic can NOT cross this outer membrane(lipopolysaccharide) So, Gram-negative bacteria can cause serious diseases in humans. Nosocomial “hospital” infections caused by Gram-negative bacilli (GNB) are the most challenging issue for health care professionals due to resistance to antibiotics if Whygram's ismuchdangerous bitsadditionallayer thanv coat outer arranscharide thatwillprevent and the of on e ffect antibaticbactiva human baiting  Plasmids 1 circle is In one_ Invariant structure Invariant structures Invariant structures 2.

Dr Ghada, Faculty of Nursing, Taibah University EXAMPLE: Corona virus Infections Local Vs. Systemic Infection An infection does not always cause acute / apparent illness. (Example of acute infection ) Periods of infectious diseases in 1. Incubation period Streptococcus pyogenes infection Subclinical infection Local Infection Time between the start of infection and the appearance of the first An infection that is limited to a small area of the signs or symptoms different according to pathogen from days e.g. influenza to months so No symptoms or Symptoms very mild to be noticed (carrier) Acute infection em body e.g. dental abcess e.g. HIV The onset of Symptoms and disease appearance Chronic infection win 2. Period of illness Some Infections result in long-term or lifelong disease Systemic infection Following incubation, individual experiences signs and symptoms of e.g. HIV, Viral Hepatitis C An infection that is found throughout the body the disease (infection that is in the bloodstream) e.g. HIV Latent infection Causative agent under immunity control→ remains inactive 3. Period of convalescence can be reactivated and symptomatic in immune disease Period of recovery Example: Herpes , Tubercolosis 56 57 58 Neisseria meningitidis Gram stain classify bacteria according to thickness of peptidoglycan layer of cell wall into: (example CNS infection) Classification of Gram positive bacteria Bacteria Which can be cocci OR bacilli according to thickness of peptidoglycan layer of cell wall Gram negative bacteria Also, cocci OR bacilli i  After Gram stain, Bacteria are seen under Gram Positive Bacilli Gram Negative Cocci Gram Positive cocci light microscope which magnifies x 1000 Examples (genus): Classified into 2 genus: Examples : Lactobacillus species Staphylococci Neisseria Clostridium e.g. Clostridium difficile e.g. Staphylococcus aureus e.g., Neisseria meningitidis Corynebacterium e.g., Neisseria gonorrhea Streptococci e.g. Streptococcus pyogenes Streptococcus viridians group Gram Negative Bacilli Examples: E. coli salmonella vibrio cholera Pseudomonas aeruginosa Bacilli Tini
