Pathogenic cocci test
Staphylococcus
Classification (can it produce coagulase)
Coagulase positive: Staphylococcus aureus
Coagulase negative: CNS
clinical significance
Invasive diseases (purulent infections), local or systemic infections such as boils, carbuncles, pneumonia, otitis media, osteomyelitis, sepsis and sepsis - clearly defined lesions
Acute gastroenteritis (vomiting)
Coagulase-negative staphylococci---nosocomial infections---Staphylococcus epidermidis---prosthetic valve endocarditis, implanted medical device infections (invasive procedures)
toxin disease
food poisoning
scalded skin syndrome
Toxic diseases such as toxic shock syndrome
biological properties
Morphological structure: Gram stain positive, spherical, cluster-like arrangement, no flagella, no spores (not visible on Gram stain)
Cultivation characteristics
Ordinary agar plate: medium-sized, raised, smooth, moist, and neatly edged colonies
Blood agar plate (Staphylococcus aureus): The colonies are yellow or golden, with obvious transparent β-hemolytic rings.
Broth medium: uniform turbid growth
The increase in drug-resistant strains, especially methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), MRS (MRSA MRCNS) --- multidrug resistance --- generally resistant to all beta-lactam antibiotics ---clinical Vancomycin is the first choice for treatment
High-salt mannitol plate (selective culture)
Nurture characteristics
Staphylococcus aureus—yellow colonies (salt-tolerant, acid-producing with mannitol)
Other Portuguese-white colonies
Specimens: feces, vomitus (digestive tract infection)
microbiology test
specimen collection
Different selections are made based on the site of infection, and infection by surrounding normal flora should be avoided.
Direct examination (microscopic examination) of the specimen (direct smear)
Direct smear of sterile body fluids, such as cerebrospinal fluid
In other body fluids, not only bacteria but also inflammatory cells are found
Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus found, suspected to be Staphylococcus aureus (descriptive language, possibility report)
Isolation, culture and identification
Isolation culture
Blood specimen: Bacteria enrichment first
Pus, urethral secretions and cerebrospinal fluid sediments: directly inoculated on blood agar plates
Specimens containing miscellaneous bacteria such as feces and vomitus: selective media, such as high-salt mannitol agar plates
Identification: catalase test positive, oxidase test negative
Streptococcus
Classification
hemolysis
Type A (alpha hemolysis): grass-green hemolytic ring, Streptococcus pneumoniae - opportunistic pathogens
Type B (β hemolysis): transparent, colorless hemolytic ring, purulent, agalactiae-Streptococcus agalactiae - highly pathogenic
Type C (γ hemolysis): no hemolysis ring, generally not pathogenic - Streptococcus bovis
Antigen structure
There is no parallel relationship between the group and hemolysis, but the main pathogenic to humans is group A (type B hemolysis)
clinical significance
causative factors
Bacterial cell wall component: M protein
Invasive enzymes: streptokinase, streptokinase, hyaluronidase
Exotoxins: Pyrogenic exotoxins (scarlet fever toxin, rash toxin). Streptolysin: SLO: Strong antigenicity, produces antibodies. SLS: No antigenicity.
Pathogenic type
purulent infection
Invasion through the skin entrance and through the respiratory tract; the boundaries of the lesions are unclear and the pus is thin
toxin disease
Scarlet fever: an acute respiratory infectious disease caused by group A streptococci that produce thermotoxins
allergic disease
Rheumatic fever, acute glomerulonephritis
Agalactiae (Group B) Streptococcus: neonatal infection
Early onset: 24 hours after birth, mainly pneumonia
Late onset: within 7d-3m, mainly meningitis and bacteremia
Viridans Streptococcus: subacute bacterial endocarditis
Streptococcus pneumoniae: Lobar pneumonia
biological properties
Morphology
G, spherical or oval, arranged in a chain; no spores, no flagella, some have capsules (strong pathogenicity, not easy to stain)
Cultivation characteristics
High nutritional requirements, grows well in 5%-10% CO2
Blood plate: gray-white, round convex, smooth surface, small colonies
microbiology test
identification
Bacitracin sensitivity test: Group A screening
CAMP test: Preliminary identification of Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B) --- Streptococcus agalactiae can produce CAMP factor, which can promote the hemolytic ability of Staphylococcus aureus. The synergistic hemolysis at the junction of the two bacteria is positive.
Bile Aesculin Test: Group D
identify
Staphylococcus and Streptococcus: Catalase test--Staphylococcus (positive), Streptococcus (negative)
Streptococcus pneumoniae and viridans Streptococcus:
Enterococcus
Classification
Enterococcus faecalis, Enterococcus faecalis
clinical significance
Not very toxic
Contains pathogenic factors such as adhesins and cytolysins
Important nosocomial pathogens
biological properties
Microscopic properties
Gram-positive cocci, singly, in pairs or in short chains
nutritional requirements
Higher, the optimal temperature is 35°C, and can grow at both 10 and 45°C
blood agar plate
Off-white, smaller, round, S-shaped colonies with smooth surface, no hemolysis or occasional alpha hemolysis
Resistant to high salt, high alkali and bile
microbiology test
direct microscopy
Gram stain microscopy shows Gram-positive cocci arranged singly, in pairs or in short chains.
identification
Intergeneric identification
Catalysin negative, PYR positive, bile esculin positive, medium growth at 65g/L (distinguishing group D), containing group D streptococcal antigen
Interspecific identification within a group
Arabinose test: feces yin and feces yang
Drug selection for drug susceptibility testing
Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) often cause difficult-to-treat infections
For refractory infections caused by enterococci (such as endocarditis), combined drugs can be used: vancomycin (or penicillin) (cell wall) aminoglycosides (ribosomes)
Cephalosporins and others exhibit antibacterial activity in vitro, but are clinically ineffective
Neisseria
clinical significance
Neisseria meningitidis
Capsule, pili, lipooligosaccharide
meningococcal meningitis
Neisseria gonorrhoeae
Outer membrane proteins, pili, protease, lipooligosaccharide
Adults: sexual contact; neonatal gonorrheal conjunctivitis caused by transpartum canal infection
biological properties
Microscopic morphology
Gram-negative diplococci, renal in nature, with opposite concave surfaces, no spores, no flagella, and most new isolates have capsules and pili.
nutritional requirements
The highest, blood or serum needs to be added to the culture medium: optimal temperature is 35°C, no growth below 30°C/above 40°C; obligate aerobic; growth in 5%-7% CO2
chocolate agar plate
Neisseria meningitidis
1-2mm, round raised, smooth and moist, neat edges, transparent dewdrop-shaped colonies
Neisseria gonorrhoeae
Round raised, off-white, opaque, smooth colonies of 0.5-1.0mm
microbiology test
specimen collection
Keep warm and moisturize, send for examination immediately, preferably bedside vaccination, pre-warm on tablet
Direct examination of specimens
microscopy
The cerebrospinal fluid is taken directly (turbid appearance) or centrifuged (clear appearance) and then the sediment smear is taken
Antigen test
serotype for rapid, presumptive diagnosis
identification
Both the oxidase test and the catalase test were positive
Neisseria meningitidis decomposes glucose and maltose, but not sucrose, and produces acid but no gas; Neisseria gonorrhoeae only decomposes glucose, produces acid but no gas.
Gram stain, medium preparation and pour plate
The cell wall is thicker and naturally resistant to many antibiotics
Opportunistic pathogens
Streptococcus pneumoniae: gray-white, smooth, flat small colonies; there is a grass-green hemolytic ring around the colony; it can produce autolytic enzymes. After 48 hours, the center of the colony will be sunken, forming an umbilical fossa shape.

Yang: Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Enterococcus
