Q

Cell wall: Gram (+)

A

Thick peptidoglycan layer, no outer membrane, many, layers, keeps primary stain: purple
Ex: Staphylococcus aureus

20
Q

Define mycoplasma

A

Stain pink
Bacteria has no cell wall
Small in size
Sterols in cell membrane

21
Q

Cell wall: Gram(-)

A

Thin peptidoglycan layer, outer membrane, 1 layer, loses primary color; picks up outer stain: pink
Ex: Escherichia coli

22
Q

Gram staining procedure

A
  1. Crystal violet- primary stain
  2. Gram’s Iodine-mordant
  3. Decolorizer- removes color (time is crucial)
  4. Safranin- counter stain
24
Q

Describe Eukaryotic Cell Membrane

A

Phospholipid bilayer, proteins, sterols: cholesterol & ergosterol

25
Describe Prokaryotic Cell Membrane
Phospholipid bilayer, proteins, no sterols; except mycoplasma

Define Glycocalyx
polysaccharide or polypeptide that is outside the cell wall
34
what helps bacteria sticks to form biofilms?
glycocalyx
35
Define Biofilms
problem in medicine=catherers; | ex: yellow substance on teeth; Staphylococcus aureus
36
name the 5 stages of biofilms
1. initial attachment 2. irreversible attachment 3. maturation 4. maturation 2 5. Dispersion
