question
Describe Staphylococcus Shape and if it is Catalase positive or negative
answer
Circular cluster and is Catalase positive.
question
Why is Catalase positive important
answer
To prevent the nueutrophil and macrophage from destroying the bacteria. Neutrophil and macrophage use hydrogen peroxide and Catalase converts it into water and oxygen.
question
What is the shape oif Strepalococcus and is it Catalase positive or negative?
answer
Strep is circular and lines up in a straight row and is Catalase negative.
question
List the three types of Strepolococcus
answer
1.Group A Alpha
2. Group A Beta
3. Gamma
question
List all the names for Group A Beta
answer
1. Group A Beta
2. Strep pyogenes
3. Strep pharyngitis
4. Strep throat
question
What does Strep Alpha, Group A do to red Blood cells?
answer
It partially breaks up red blood cells giving them a green color under a microscope.
question
What does Group A Beta do to red blood cells?
answer
Breaks up the whole red blood cell to pieces. Color is a clear zone area of destroyed blood cells when seen in a microscope.
question
What does Strep Gamma do to red blood cells?
answer
Can not break red blood cells. No color or change is seen under a microscope. Also known as non hemolytic strep.
question
What is Calase? Why is it important?
answer
Breaks down Hydrogen Peroxide into Water and Oxygen. Important because Neutrophils and macrophage need hydrogen peroxide. Calase prevents it by changing it.
question
What is another name for Strep Gamma?
