Bacteriology — Flashcards

Listeria monocytogenes is a Gram-_____ rod that is a facultative anaerobe

The _____ cell wall lacks classic peptidoglycan (due to reduced muramic acid), rendering beta-lactam antibiotics ineffective.

Hint: what bug's

_____ produces the exotoxin Alpha toxin, which is a Phospholipase C enzyme

_____-cellular bacteria do not gram stain well, including Rickettsia, Chlamydia and Legionella

_____ E. coli uses aggregative adherence fimbriae (AAF) to make a biofilm on the intestinal wall

_____ species are involved in causing angular conjunctivitis, and is a gram negative, diplobacillus

_____ has a peptide capsule made of d-glutamate that allows for increased virulence due to unimpeded growth

_____ is considered a fastidious bacteria because it needs NAD+ (factor V) and hematin (factor X) to grow

_____ attach to N-acetylmuramic acid (NAM) of the Peptidoglycan on a Bacterium's cell wall, connecting the sugars together

The E. coli _____ antigen is present on its lipopolysaccharide (LPS)
