What are examples of encapsulated bacteria? Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Strepococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus, Influenzae type B, Neisseria meningitidis, Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and group B Strep
What is the mnemonic device to help you remember examples of encapsulated bacteria? Please SHINE my SKiS Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Strepococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus, Influenzae type B, Neisseria meningitidis, Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and group B Strep
What to the capsules of encapsulated bacteria serve as? Antiphagocytic virulence factor.
Encapsulated Bacteria Capsular polysaccharide + what serves as an antigen in vaccines? Capsular polysaccharide + protein conjugate serves as an antigen in vaccines.
Encapsulated bacteria are opsonized and then cleared by what? The spleen
Why do Asplenics increase risk for severe infections? What should be given? Asplenics have low opsonizing ability and thus increase risk for sever infections. Give S pneumoniae, H influenzae, N meningitidis vaccines
Some encapsulated bacteria vaccines containing polysaccaride capsule antigens are conjugated to a carrier protein, enhancing what? How is it enhanced? Enhancing immunogenicity by promoting T-cell activation and subsequent class switching.
True or False A polysaccharide antigen alone cannot be presented to T cells. True
What vaccines are encapsulated bacteria vaccines? Pneumococcal vaccine: PCV13 (pneumococcal conjugate vaccine), PPSV23 (pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine with no conjugated protein) H influenzae type B (conjugate vaccine) Meningococcal vaccine (conjugate vaccine)
What are urease-positive organisms? Proteus, Cryptococcus, H pylori, Ureaplasma, Nocardia, Klebsiella, S epidermidis, S saprophyticus.
What is the mnemonic device to help you remember urease-positive organisms? Pee CHUNKSS Proteus, Cryptococcus, H pylori, Ureaplasma, Nocardia, Klebsiella, S epidermidis, S saprophyticus.
Urease hydrolyzes urea to release what? What does that lead to? Urease hydrolyzes urea to release ammonia and CO2 which leads to increased pH.
Urease-positive organisms Predisposes to what? Predisposes to struvite (ammonium magnesium phosphate) stones, particularly Proteus.
What are examples of catalase-positive organisms? Nocardia, Pseudomonas, Listeria, Aspergilllus, Candida, E coli, Staphylococci, Serratia, B cepacia, H pylori
What is the mnemonic device to help you remember catalase-positive organisms? Cats Need PLACESS to Belch their Hairballs
Catalase degrades H202 into what? H2O and bubbles of O2
Catalase degrades H2O2 into H2O and O2 before it can be converted to what? Before it can be converted to microbicidal products.
Catalase degrades H2O2 into H2O and O2 before it can be converted to microbicidal products by what? By the enzyme myeloperoxidase.
People with what have recurrent infections with certain catalase+ organisms? Chronic Granulomatous Disease (NADPH oxidase deficiency)
