MICRO 1 FINAL STUDY GUIDE |LATEST
UPDATE { GRADED A+}
A human infection that results from a microorganism that primarily
infects animal populations is referred to as - ✔✔a zoonotic
infection
The persistent survival of microorganisms on a surface of the
human body is called - ✔✔colonization
Swelling, redness, heat, and pain are all manifestations of -
✔✔inflammation
Infectious processes that develop quickly are referred to as -
✔✔acute infections
Latent infections are those that - ✔✔exist as a silent phase in
which the agent is causing no notable effect
,Rejection of inappropriately collected or transported specimens -
✔✔should be initiated by laboratory personnel but approved by
nursing or physician staff responsible for the care of the patient.
Specimens for microbiologic studies should be - ✔✔transported
to the laboratory within 30 minutes of collection.
contained in specimen containers that are leak-proof.
clearly marked with a biohazard label.
Which type of media is designed to support the growth of a wide
range of microorganisms - ✔✔Supportive
Which type of media is designed to support the growth of one
group of organisms, but not another, by containing antimicrobials,
dyes, or alcohol? - ✔✔Selective
Aerobes grow best in - ✔✔ambient air, which contains 21%
oxygen (O2) and a small amount (0.03%) of carbon dioxide
How do you examine a blood agar plate for hemolysis? - ✔✔hold
it up to the light
, which media can be used to select for gram positive bacteria -
✔✔PEA and CNA
Which media slows the growth of gram negative rods in the
digestive tract but allows for Salmonella and Shigella to grow? -
✔✔HE and XLD
What agar contains vancomycin, colistin, nystatin, and
trimethoprim? What organism(s) grows on this agar? -
✔✔Thayer-Martin agar; Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria
meningitidis
