microbiology infec-
tions
2. Examples of GI in- Clostridium difficile is an agent
fection agent
3. Examples of infec- Bacteria, Parasites, fungi, virus, anthropods
tious agents
4. Example of enter- Escherichia coli (E.coli)
obacteria
5. What is vibrios Have spiral shape
6. Types of true bacte- Gram negative and positive; bacilli and cocci, streptococcus ( beads on a
ria strand) and staphylococcus (grape -like) are gram positive, neisseria is neg-
ative cocci Gram -positive bacilli are Bacillus and Clostridium gram-negative
bacilli can be grouped in aerobic and anaerobic. aerobic include enterobac-
teria, vibrios, parvobacteria. anaerobic include bacteriodes spp found in the
digestive tract
7. Where do ricketssi- Intracellularly
ae and chlamydia
grow
8. What are the two Giardia intestinalis and Entamoeba histolytica and are both resistant to chlo-
forms of protozoa rine
9. Types of fungi moulds and yeast
10. Stages to patients Request, sample collection, storage, transport, reception, safety checks, cul-
results ture and non- culture techniques, identification and sensitivity, results
