Mycoplasmataceae and Chlamydiaceae 7.10

What are the two genus under the Family Chlamydiaceae?

These are obligate intracellular bacteria with a unique development cycle.

These are gram negative, non motile organisms that replicate within cytoplasm of host cells.

how are chlaymdia organisms different than a virus?

Chlaymidia are considered energy parasites that use host cell-produced _____ for own requirements?

what are the three Chlamydiaceae organsims?

Chlamydia trachomatis have what tow natural hosts?

how many subtypes of Chlamydia trachomatis are there?

what are the four subtypes of C. trachomatis that cuases trachoma and TRIC (inclusion conjunctivitis)?

This is the infectious Dx of cornea and conjuctiva that is a common preventable form of blindness?

What are the subtypes of Chlamydia trachomatis that causes nongonococcal urethritis (NUG)?

Chlamydia trachomatis subtypes D-K are associated with _____ of urethritis, cervicitis, PID, and epididymitis?

what are the three subgroups of Chlamydia trachomatis that causes Lymphogranuloma venereum?

this is an infectious venereal disease characterized by primay ulcer and lymphadenopathy, may become chronic with genital hyperplasia, rectal strictures, fistulas and sinuses?

This organism cuases infections of the lungs and is transmitted by birds.

This organism is also known as TWAR.

This organism causes pneumonia, sinusitis, and flu-like symptoms that may be severe for immunocompromised patients.

how is C. pneumoniae diagnosed?

ture or fale
All three Chlamydia/Chlamydophilas are not related at all.
True False

this is the infectious stage of the Chlamydia growth cycle where bacteria are adapted for extracellular survival?

In what growth cycle stage do Chlamydia have rigid walls and are non-metabolic?

what are the size of Chlamydia in the elementary body stage?

this stage of the growth cycle is also called the reticulate body, chlamydia organisms are adapted for intracellular environment.

this stage of the growth cycle has metabolic activity and a flexible wall.

in what stage of the growth cycle do chlamydia organisms replicate?

what is the size or chlamyida organisms in the initial body?

How do elementary bodies enter a cell?

EB prevent what cellular function?

EB re-organizes and enlarge and form what within the cell?

how long does it take for binary fission to occur?

how long after infection does the IB fill the cytoplasm and host cell to dispace the nucleus?

true or false
Some IB's can revert back to EB's?
True False

after this happens there is a release of elementary bodies to initiate another cycle of infection.

chlamydia organisms are collected from what involved cells?

For collection of what organism should you NOT use purulent discharge?

for NGU, use _________ swab, insert _________ cm into urethra, apply adequate pressure.

For cervical and ocular specimens the mucosa should be scraped using what type of collection media?

Cotton should not be used for collection of what media becuase it is toxic?

collection of LGV samles should be collecting from what?

Swabs, scrapings, and small tissues of chlamydia should be collected in what two special transport mediums?

Chlamydia specimens should be refrigerated at 4^oC if processed w/in ____ hours.

Chlamydia specimens should be frozen at what temperature if not processed within 24 hours.

clinical Chlamydia specimens should be shaken with _________ prior to inoculation.

Methods of tissue culture for what organsims are beyond capabilities of most clinical micro labs and should be forwarded to reference laboratory.

What are the three tissue cells appropriate for Chlamydia culture?

what is the most sensitve direct method to detect and ID Chlamydia in symtomatic patients?

This is an old method for Chlamydia ID where scrapings are air-dried and inclusions appear as reddish-brown masses recognizable under low magnification.

This new technology is more sensitive and specific, it amplifies target DNA and allows use of urine.

This technique uses poly/monoclonal Ab to detect outer membrane proteins of organisms. It has questionable specificity (False +).

Mycoplasmataceae are aslo known as what?

These fastidious organisms are highly pleomorphic and has no true cell wall which makes them very susceptible to drying.

Mycoplasmatacaea has a triple layered _________ membrane.

Most Mycoplasmatacaea organisms require what for nutrition?

What family of organisms cannot be gram stained but are technically gram negative.

Mycoplasmatacaea re best visualized using what type of microscopy?

what is a clue to identification of mycoplasmatacae?

What are the two genuses of Mycoplasmataceae?

What are the three species of Mycoplasma?

What is the species of Ureaplasma?

What is the natural host of M. pneumoniae?

This organism is not considered normal flora, and causes 50% of community acqured pneumonia?

This is the etiological agent of cold-hemagglutinin associated with primary atypical pneumonia (PAP).

Mycoplasma pnumoniae is the etiological agent of what disease that is a rarely fatal subclinical infection related to respiratory epithelium?

ture or false
some patients of walking pneumonia are asymptomatic.
True False

these two organisms are a natural host of the GU tract of humans known as genital mycoplasmas.

Distribution and habitat of this organism is unknown but it is frequently seen in cervicitis and endometriosis.

what percent of NGU is caused by M. geitalium?

This organism is collected from fluid samples with no anticoagulant, dacron or Ca alginate swabs should be used.

What genus requires beef or soybean protein and serum for cultivation?

what is the media used for M. pneumoniae?

after incubation at 37^oC for 4 weeks, this organism will appear as spherical grainy, yellowis fors embedded in agar?

What media is used for genital mycoplasmas?

Genital mycoplasmas should be incuabted at 37^oC for 7 days if using what form of media?

Genital mycoplasmas should be incubated at 37^oC, with 5% CO2 or anaerobic for 2-5 days when using what form of media?

This organism will appear as dark, brownish clumps on the A7 to A8 agar.

This organism will appear as fried eggs on the A7 to A8 agar.

Cold agglutinin test is used to detect what organism becuased 50% of patients produce this antibody.

what is the most widely used serological test for ID of M. pneumoniae?

true or false
sero studes for seginal mycoplasma is rarely used.
True False
