Q

Enrichment media for Vibrios

A

Alkaline Peptone Water

17
Q

Non-halophilic vibrios, they do not need high concentration of salt (because generally vibrio spp. are halophilic except them)

A

V. cholerae
V. mimicus

18
Q

(+) Kanagawa phenomenon (beta hemolysis due to TDH or thermosyable direct hemolysin

A

V. parahaemolyticus

19
Q

Causes Summer Diarrhea in Japan
second most common vibrio spp,

A

V. parahaemolyticus

20
Q

the hemolysis due to V. parahaemolyticus which is responsible for destruction/beta hemolysis of RBCS

A

TDH – Thermostable Direct Hemolysis

21
Q

Characteristic of vibrio that will separate them from Enterobacteriaceae (*oxidase -)

22
Q

Characteristic of vibrio that will separate them from Plesiomonas (*Inositol +)

23
Q

Most significant vibrio because it can cause cholera (a diarrheal disease characterized by rice watery stool)

24
Q

Less virulent, occupational hazard  continuous contact with sea water (fishermen, sailor)

A

V. alginolyticus

25
Characteristic of vibrio that will differentiate them from Pseudomonas (*Nonfermenters)
CHO fermentation mechanism (Vibrios are fermenters)
26
Vibrios are all glucose (+), Lactose (-) except
V. vulnificus
27
Spp. that are triple Decarboxylase (-)
Pantoea agglomerans (Lysine, Ornithine and Arginine negative)
28
Triple Decarboxylase (+)
Plesiomonas spp.
29
Ways to do Decarboxylase test:
1. Moeller's Broth 2. LIA
30
Base media used in Decarboxylase test pH indicator used
Moeller's broth Bromcresol purple
31
Result of Moeller's broth (color)
(+) purple (-) yellow
32
The enzyme will remove the carboxyl group
Decarboxylase
33
Carboxyl group that will be removed from lysine
Cadaverine
34
Carboxyl group that will be removed from ornithine
Putrescine
35
Carboxyl group that will be removed from arginie
Citrulline
36
- Appear like wings of seagulls (S-shaped organism) - Darting motility - Both microaerophilic (needs only small amount of air) and capnophilic (needs high amount of CO2)
Campylobacter spp. (C. jejuni and C. coli)
37
* Virulence factor = Urease production
Helicobacter pylori
