staph and stre[[ Flashcards
(84 cards)
culturing on blood agar plates, growing as round, smooth, white (sometimes yellowish) and beta-hemolytic (completely lyses RBCs)
staphylococcus
To differentiate Staphylococa, Micrococaus, and Streptococaus
CATALASE TEST
Transfer a small amount of colony into a clean glass slide then drop 3% H2o2
CATALASE TEST
result in catalse test
RESULT
(+) Continuous Bubbling
(-) No or few bubbles are formed
positive and negative example in catalase
QUALITY CONTROL
(*) Control = Staphylococcus aureus
(-) Control = Streptococcus pyogenes
To differentiate Staphylococcus aureus from other StaphylococcoI spp.
COAGULASE TEST
an enzyme that reacts with fibrinogen to for a clot
coagulase
SLIDE coagulase method
: Place a drop of rabbit’s plasma (EDTA) onto a slide then emulsify a loopful of bacteria to create a suspension. Rock the slide for 5-10 seconds and observe for agglutination
TUBE method
: emulsify a loopful of bacteria in 0.5ml of rabbit’s plasma and incubate in 37°C for 4 hours. Observe for clot formation every 30 mins
- detects clumping factors in the surface of bacterial cells.
COAGULASE- SLIDE METHOD
- Fibrinogen → clumping factor → Fibrin
COAGULASE- SLIDE METHOD
Detects thrombin-like molecule called coagulase reacting factor (CRF).
COAGULASE- TUBE METHOD
extracellular molecule that will react with CRF
Staphylocoagulase
- Fibrinogen→ coagulase-CRF complex → Fibrin
COAGULASE- TUBE METHOD
PURPOSE To differentiate Staphylococc from Micrococci
MODIFIED OXIDASE TEST
Bacteria that possess cytochrome C produce a dark-blue end product when reacted with Modified Oxidase rgt
MODIFIED OXIDASE TEST
result of microdase
RESULT
(+) Development of purple-blue color
(-) No Color change
positive and negative control for microdase test
(+) Control = Micrococous luteus
(-) Control = Staphylococeus aureus
