![Page 10: Microbiology Primer YSU – Weapons of Mass Destruction.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032704/56649d5c5503460f94a3b0e9/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Bacteria

Bacteria Reproduction
• Binary fission• Daughter cells• Population doubles each generation• Phase (important in disease)
– Lag– Exponential– Stationary– Death

Similar Organisms
• Rickettsiae– Gram negative– Difficult to stain– Grow in living cells– Treatable with antibiotics– Q-Fever– Rocky Mt. Fever

Viruses
Orthopox vaccinia
Modern antibiotics cannot “kill” viruses. In fact, questions still exist as to whether viruses are actually “alive”.

Viruses
• Submicroscopic• 0.02 - 0.3 m• Either DNA or RNA• Glycoprotein
envelope• Obligate parasite
Rhinovirus 14

Viral Reproduction - RNA
• Replicates in cytoplasm
• Capsid dissolves• RNA acts as
messenger• Cell systems
harnessed for replication

Prions
• BSE – 1986, also classified as a transmissible spongiform encephalopathies.
• vCJD
These are, in fact, incomplete shreds of protein whose origin are unknown. They can insert themselves into the genetic code of healthy cells.

Other Organisms
• Amoeba
• Flagellates Protozoans (dinoflagellates) – paralytic shellfish poisoning
• Plasmodium (malaria)

Nutritional Patterns
• Saprophytic– Live on dead organic material
• Holozoic– Ingest solid food
• Parasitic– Nutrients at expense of host
• Obligate Parasite– Requires host for specific function
