How long do you keep crystal violet stain on your slide?
|
1977
When were archaea bacteria discovered?
|
Promote gut health and normal flora, and take up
space so that pathogenic bacteria can not grow.
Name two ways that probiotics are beneficial to
humans? |
Streptococcus pyogenes
Gram + beta-hemolytic coccus known to cause strep throat and scarlet fever

Which of the following genera are associated with sexually transmitted diseases?

100x
When using oil immersion, what objective do you use the oil?
|
Peptidoglycan
What don't archaea cell walls have?
|
Penicillin (antibiotic), Streptomyces (antibiotic),
Rapamycin (immunosuppressant), Bleomycin (chemo drug).
Name two medicines that bacteria make which are
beneficial to humans. |
Micrococcus
Gram + bacteria genus characterized by cocci with exceptionally thick cell walls that stain intensely purple
|
Salmonella and Shigella
Gram - bacillus; non-lactose fermenter, the common cause of food poisoning
|
To decolorize the crystal violet
Why do we use alcohol when gram staining slides?
|
One (monolayer)
How many layers do archaea cell walls have?
|
In the Food and Pharmaceutical Industries
In what two industries are bacteria used as a source of
enzymes? |
Staphylococcus aureus
Gram + coccus that is a common cause of nosocomial infection and has developed extensive antibiotic resistance
|
Bordetella pertussis
Gram - coccobacillus; causative agent of whooping cough
|
The medium in the tube might become contaminated by microbes in the air.
If you forget to flame the mouth of a broth culture tube before transferring culture to it, what might result?
|
No
Are archaea known to cause disease in humans?
|
Lactic Acid Bacteria
What bacteria are fermentative bacteria, help with
producing certain foods, and obtain their energy from metabolized sugars? |
Bacillus
Gram + genus characterized by large spore-forming rods that are facultative anaerobes and are commonly found in soil
|
Helicobacter pylori
Gram-helical; multiple flagella; halophilic; causative agent of stomach ulcers

Place the steps of the Gram Stain in order by number:
1) Flood slide with Gram's Iodine for 1 minute; wash with water 2) Flood slide with Safranin for 30 seconds; wash with water 3) Flood slide with Crystal Violet for 1 minute; wash with water 4) Decolorize slide with alcohol for 10-20 seconds; wash with water |
Archaea cells are structurally different from bacterial cells, so they aren't targeted by antibiotics.
Why wouldn't antibiotics work on archaea?
|
Make antibiotics and medicine, found in our normal
flora, ingest them to promote a healthier gut, can be used as insecticides, and take up space so that pathogenic bacteria can not grow.
Name different ways that bacteria can be/ are
beneficial to humans (at least 4). |
Corynebacteria diphtheria
Gram + club-shaped rod that produces a powerful toxin that causes inflammation of the mucous membrane: babies are vaccinated in developed countries
|
Mycobacterium
Gram variable bacillus; obligate aerobe; surrounded by waxy envelope giving it resistance; stained with acid-fast stain; causative agent of leprosy and tuberculosis
