ESTHETICIAN STATE BOARD WRITTEN STUDY GUIDE (TEXAS) ~Sanitation, Disinfection, and Safety~ questions and answers well illustrated. Federal agencies - correct answers.Set guidelines for the manufacturing, sale, and use of equipment and chemical ingredients along with safety in the work place. OSHA - correct answers.Occupational Safety and Health Administration - Occupational Safety and Health Act was passed by Congress to encourage job safety (hazards of materials, mixing, disposing, storing ) created as a part of the U.S. Department of Labor to regualte and enforce saftely and health standards to protect employees in the workplace ~ page 75 Milady~ EPA - correct answers.Environmental Protection Agency - registers all type of disinfectants sold and used in the US. Disinfectants - correct answers.Chemical products that destroy all bacteria, fungi and viruses (but not spores) on the surfaces. Tuberculocidal and hospital strength - correct answers.Two strengths of disinfectants used in salons and spas. Hospital disinfectants - correct answers.Effective for cleaning blood and bodily fluids. Can be used on nonporous surfaces (non absorbing) Tuberculocidal disinfectants - correct answers.Proven to kill the bacteria that cause tuberculosis . Much more powerful but can be harmful to salon, spa and estetic tools (require special methods of disposal) MSDS - correct answers.Material Safety Data Sheet- Both Federal and state laws require that manufacturers supply a MSDS for all products sold. It contains information compiled by the manufacturer about the product safety including the names of hazardous ingredients, safe handling, and use of procedures, precautions tp reduce the risk of accidental harm or over exposure and flammability warnings. MSDS also provides useful disposal guidelines and medical and first aide information. OSHA and state regulatory agenices require that MSDS be kept available in the salon or spa ore medical office at all times. Nonporous - correct answers.Items that are made or constructed of a material that has no pores or openings and cannot absorb liquids. State agencies - correct answers.Regulate licensing, enforcement, and conduct when working in a salon, spa or medical facility. State regulatory agencies exist to protect salon and spa professionals and protect consumers' health and safety and welfare while they receive salon and spa services.

Rules & Regulations - correct answers.More specific than laws. These are written by the regulatory agency or the state board, and they determine how the law must be applied. Infection - correct answers.When body tissues are invaded by pathogenic bacteria infection control - correct answers.The methods used to eliminate or reduce the transmission of infectious organisms. Infectious Disease - correct answers.Caused by pathogenic (harmful) organisms that enter the body. It may or may not spread from one person to another person. Clean - correct answers.Mechanical form (scrubbing) using soap and water or detergent to remove all visible dirt and invisible dirt that may interfere with disinfection. cleaning is required before disinfecting Sanitizing - correct answers.Reducing pathogens on a surface to safe levels. (Reduces disease causing germs on clean surfaces) Disinfection - correct answers.Using a chemical that kills most microorganisms on hard, non-porous surfaces. Bacteria, fungi, viruses and parasites - correct answers.Four categories of potentially infectious microorganisms that are important in the practice of cosmetology? Bacteria - correct answers.Are one-celled micro-organisms that have both plant and animal characteristics. It can exist almost anywhere: on skin, in water, in the air, in decayed matter on environmental services, in body secretions, on clothing, or on and under free edge of nails. They are so small they can only be seen with the microscope. Pathogenic - correct answers.Harmful microorganisms that can cause disease or infection in humans when they invade the body. Classifications of Pathogenic Bacteria are ---- - correct answers.Cocci, Staphylococci, Streptococci, Diplococci (these are all round shaped bacteria that appear singly or in groups) *Cocci* rarely show active motility which means self movement- They are transmitted in the dust or within a substance in which they settle. Bacilli - short rod shaped and Spirilla - spiral or corkscrewed shaped both capable of movement and use slender hair like extensions *flagella for moving about. Cocci - correct answers.Are transmitted in the air, in dust, or within the substance in which they settle. Streptococci - correct answers.Pus forming bacteria arranged in curved lines, resembels chain of beads. They cause infections such as strep thraot and blood poisining Staphylococci - correct answers.Pus-forming bacteria that grow in clusters similar to grapes; is responsible for food poisoning and toxic shock syndrome. Diplococci - correct answers.Spherical bacteria that grow in pairs and cause diseases such as pneumonia. Bacilli - correct answers.Bacteria that causes tetanus, typhoid fever, tuberculosis and diphtheria. Cilia - correct answers.Hairlike projections that extend from the plasma membrane and are used for locomotion
