For Quizzes 3 and 4 know what you missed why you missed it and know the correct answer Also know those question topics well enough that if the question were asked in a different way you would know the answer You DO need to know specific names of the disease causing organisms that we discussed and how they are transmitted Know the names of the sub divisions of the phylum Proteobacteria alpha beta etc Alpha beta delta gamma epilon Know which human tissues the Plasmodium malaria organism passes Know which viral disease that we discussed has been eradicated by Most fungi we discussed affect immunocompromised hosts There are a few that affect normal healthy hosts know these through in its life cycle Red blood cells and liver vaccination programs Small pox Encephalitozoon intestinalis Blastomyces dermatidis Histoplasma capsulatum Microsporum Trichophyton Sporothrix schenckii Epidermophyton Coccidiotes immitis malassezia Know what type of eukaryotic algae the gelling agents agar and carrageenan are harvested from Rhodophyta Know what type of eukaryotic organism caused the Irish potato famine Oomycetes Phytophthera infestans Know within what phylum tapeworms are classified Know within what phylum roundworms are classified Platyhelminths Nematoda Know what type of organisms Wolbachia endosymbionts are Alphaproteobacteria live inside other organisms Of the viruses we discussed which ones have no vaccine yet available For which ones is there a very great need for a vaccine Hepatitis C Know the genus and species of fungus that is most commonly used in production of beer bread and wine Saccharomyces cerevisiae Know what types of material viral genomes can be composed of DNA or RNA both single or double stranded Know what the viral eclipse period is The time between infection by a virus and the appearance of a mature virus within the cell Approximately what of cervical cancers test positive for Human papillomavirus Greater than 95 infection Know the difference between a latent viral infection and a persistent viral Latent virus remains dormant for a long period of time Persistent disease processes over a long period of time often fatal Know how a virus is defined What things does a virus always possess Virus infections agent that consists of nucleic acids and a protein coat Capsid Know the type of virus we discussed that forms a latent infection Know what type of genome a retrovirus has and how it interacts with the Herpesvirus host genome particle RNA VIRUS THAT PASSES THROUGH DNA STAGE RNA genome and reverse transcriptase are packaged in a virus New viral dna is integrated into the hosts genome What is the most important disease causing retrovirus we discussed For the disease causing bacteria listed in bold know whether it is Gram positive or Gram negative and how it is transmitted arthropod sexual contact or more casual contact HIV For the disease causing eukaryotes listed in bold in the lecture notes know whether it is a Fungus Algae Protozoan or Helminth and how it is transmitted Look at the slides Look at the slides For the disease causing viruses listed in bold know whether or not they have a lipid envelope and how they are transmitted Look at the slides Know which diseases are caused by prions Know the definition of a prion Mad cow disease BSE Creutzfeldt Jakob humans Shep scrapie Proteinacious infections particle Determining viral titer requires making dilutions and counting plaques as in Lecture 15 slides 17 21 You would do this by methods very similar to determining the number of bacterial cells in a culture from a colony count Review how to do this Know what the MMRV vaccine protects against Look at the slides Measels mumps varicella and rubella Know the infectious agent that causes stomach ulcers Heliobacter Pylori Know what diseases can be caused by species of Chlamydi Chlamidyia trachomatis causes the STD and conjunctivitis Chlamidophia psittaci parrot fever immunecompromised patients Chlamidophila pneumonia atypical pneumonia Know the name of the form of Chlamydia that briefly live outside host cells and can be transferred from host to host elementary stage Know the name of the bacteria that we discussed that completely lacks cell walls Mycoplasms Know the bacteria that produces botulinum toxin Clostridium Botulinum Know the bacteria that produces tetanus toxin Clostridium tetani Know the names of the bacterial genera that are enteric bacteria Enterobacteriales Enterobacter Erwiniia Escherichia Klebsiella Proteus Salmonella Serrate Shigella Yersinia Know the name of the bacterium that causes necrotizing fasciitis Streptococcus pyogenes Know the differences between a cutaneous subcutaneous or systemic fungal infection Subcutaneous mycoses beneath the skin Cutaneous mycoses Affect hair skin and nails Systemic mycoses deep within body Know what an opportunistic infection is Opportunistic mycoses Caused by normal microbiota or environmental fungi attack primarily immunocompormised hosts AIDS patients particularly vulnerable
