1. Sphericcal, Round Shape, Can Divide Into 1 Or 2 More Planes Or Randomly

Cocci
Familial. Rare. Progression Is Usually Slower Than In Cjd - With Characteristic Multicentric Amyloid Plaques In The Brains Of All Cases
Gram-positive Spore-forming Rod. - â€¢ Epidemiology / At Risk: Spores Are Uniquitous In The Soil And Introduced Through Puncture Wounds. - â€¢ Manifestations: Tetanus. A Microgram Of Toxin Is Sufficient To Kill. - O Spore Germination: - Once Spores Introduced, They Can Lie Dormant For Years If Wound Remains Well Aerated. - As Aeration Is Reduced (Such As With Age, For Example), Spores Germinate And Release Exotoxin. - Exotoxin Is Taken Up By Nerve Cells ------> Retrograde Transport To Post-synaptic Dendrites, Where The - Exotoxin Exerts Its Effect. - O Generalized Tetanus: Lockjaw. Toxin May Ascend To Brain And Affect Respiratory Center. Ans Involvement And - Generalized Spasms. Death By Respiratory Arrest. Symptoms: - Dysphagia - Drooling - Ans Involvement: Sweating, Hyperthermia, Cardiac Arrhythmias. - O Localized Tetanus: Localized Spasm In Area Of Infection. It May Spread To Generalized Tetanus. - O Cephalic Tetanus: Primary Infection In Head. - â€¢ Processing: - O Specimen: Only A Few Organisms In The Lesions. Diagnosis Is Clinical -- Not By Microbiology. - O Culture: Swarming Growth In Culture. Thin Surrounding Film And Faint Beta-hemolysis. - Amplified In Cooked Hamburger Broth. Selected For By Heat. - â€¢ Identification: - O Opportunstic Strict Anaerobe - O Genus Is Identified By Colony Morphology. - O Somatic Antigen O: Fortunately There Is Only One Serotype Of Antigen-o, So That A Vaccine Is Easy To Make And - Effective. - â€¢ Virulence: - O Tetanospasmin: Heat Labile, Potent, Antigenic Exotoxin. - Ab-toxin Cleaved In Light (A) And Heavy (B) Fragments By An Endogenous Protease. - Fragment-b Binds To Ganglioside Receptor Of A Nerve Cell. - Fragment-a Is Taken Up By Endocytosis. Acidifcation Of The Vesicle Causes Fragment-a To Be - Release Into Cytoplasm. - Effect: Fragment-a Moves Up Axon Retrograde To The Post-synpatic Receptor. It Blocks Release Of Gaba - And Glycerine At The Post-synaptic Terminal. - This Results In Unregulated Excitatory Post-synaptic Potentials On Nerve Terminal, Leading To Spastic - Paralysis Of Skeletal Muscle And Respiratory Arrest. - â€¢ Vaccine / Prevention: - O Vaccine: Given Against The O-antigen In Cell Wall. - Alum-precipitated Toxoid (More Immunogenic But Can Cause Hypersensitivity): Given To Infants And - Children, And Never-before Immunized Adults. - Children Given At Age 2, 4, 6, And 15-18 Months. - Ammonium-precipiated Toxoid: Given As A Booster Shot Every Ten Years Thereafter. - People Are Usually Over-vaccinated For This Bug. - O Antitoxin: Given Prophylactically If Someone Is Potentially Exposed (Has A Puncture Wound) And Has Not Been - Vaccinated Within 5 Years. - Tetanus Toxin Itself Is Not Inherently Immunogenic. - If A Documented Vaccine Has Been Administered In Last 5 Years, No Antitoxin Is Necessary. - â€¢ Treatment: To Someone Who Has Never Been Vaccinated, The Antitoxin Is Given In One Arm, And A Vaccine Is Given In The Other - Arm, Simultaneously. The Two Will Not Intermix If Given In Separate Arms.
Bacteria That Manage To Keep The Original Purple Dye Have Only Got A Cell Wall
