Q

chlamydiae

A

gram negative
giemsa staining
pleomorphic
these microbes may lack real colour: intracellular parasite that lacks classic pepridoglycan because of low muramic acid

clostridium

A

gram positive rod

24
Q

ureaplasma

A

no cell wall

contains sterols

25
nocardia
gram positive branching weakly acid fast
26
campylobacter
gram negative rod | enteric
27
pseudomonas
gram negative rod | enteric
28
bordetella
gram negative rod | respiratory
29
francisella
gram negative rod | zoonotic
30
rickettsiae
gram negative pleomorphic giemsa (chlamydiae and borrelia) these microbes may lack real colour: intracellular parasite
31
mycobacterium
gram positive rod acid fast these microbes may lack real colour: high lipid content; mycolic acids in cell wall are detected by carbolfuchisin in acid fast stain
32
salmonella
gram negative rod | enteric
33
vibrio
gram negative rod | enteric
34
borrelia
gram negative spiral giemsa (with chlamydia, rickettsiae) spiral with treponema and leptospira
35
streptococcus
gram positive cocci
36
lactobacillus
gram positive rod
37
serratia
gram negative rod | enteric
38
propionibacterium
gram positive rod
39
leigonella
gram negative rod respiratory silver stain; these microbnes may lack real colour: primarily intracellular
40
treponema
gram negative rod - DONT STAIN WELL bc are too thin to be visualized (these microbes may lack real colour - name them): dark-field microscopy and fluoresecent antibody staining spiral (borrelia, leptospira)
41
actinomyces
gram positive branching
42
what microbes do not stain well?
these microbes may lack real colour treponema - dark field mycoplasma - no cell wall mycobacteria - high lipid and mycolic acids that carbofuschin loves in acid fast legionella - intracellular mostly - silver stain ricketssiae - intracellular parasite chlamydiae - intracellular parasite that lacks classic peptidoglycan becase of low muramic acid
