What are symptoms you get when youre sick? Give three examples…

Another video Bozeman Science

3. The Human Microbiome We are actually a giant ecosystem of microbes
Prokaryotes comprise between 1-3% of the mass of a human body
- up to 6lbs of a 200 lb person can be microbes

4. Bacteria Earth’s oldest life forms
– between 3.5 and 3.8 billion years old
Most abundant life form – up to 2.5 billion individual bacteria in 1 gram of fertile soil
Very adaptable – found in all of Earth’s
ecosystems 4

5. Bacteria Characteristics
Unicellular
Circular DNA, No organelles
1/10th the size of eukaryotic cells
Flagella-long hair-like structure used for movement
Reproduce asexually –Binary Fission 5

6. Reproduction - Binary Fission
Bacterial cells undergoing binary fission 6

7. Bacterial Roles: Symbiotic Bacteria
Many bacteria live in or on other organisms (including humans) and aid their host
- some live in the gut of herbivores helping to digest cellulose
- bacteria in the gut of humans
aid digestion and produce
vitamins
- bacteria on skin and in body
openings help prevent infection
by harmful organisms
Stomach bacteria help maintain stomach pH, produce B and K vitamins, studies show that babies given lactobacilius bacteria have less diarrhea

8. Bacterial Roles: Pathogenic Bacteria
Pathogens are organisms that cause disease
- only a small portion of bacteria are pathogens
- most bacteria diseases are caused by toxins
released by the bacteria
- these toxins:
- poison cells and damage tissue
- interfere with cell signaling
- over-stimulate cells causing them to malfunction

9. Antibiotics
Antibiotics are chemicals which either kill bacteria or prevent their growth and reproduction
The discovery of
antibiotics revolutionized
the treatment
of disease
Antibiotics which kill bacteria are bacteriacidal, the antibiotics which stop growth are referred to as bacteriastatic

10. Antibiotic Resistance
Some bacteria have developed a resistance to the effect
of some antibiotics NOT KILLED BY ANTIBIOTICS
- the number of resistant bacteria is growing
The problem is increased by overuse and misuse of antibiotics
- use of antibiotics to treat viral infections – antibiotics don’t effect viruses!!!
kills the most susceptible bacteria, but leaves the more resistant bacteria

11. Streptococcus
Bacteria that causes Strep throat

12. Black Plague-Yersinia pestis
Bacillus bacterium from flea bites that recently fed on infected rats. Flea regurgitates germs onto human open wound. Sign of infection is lymph nodes swellings called Buboes. Dried blood under the skin turns black, hence the name Black Death. Spread is slow from person to person. Mortality is very high (75%) for untreated cases. Now early treatment with antibiotics is very effective. 12

13. Syphilis--Treponema pallidum/Bacterial
Causes an ulcer at the site of infection. 4 stages of life. Treatment now with Penicillin. 13

14. Mycobacterium leprae/Bacteria
Rod like Bacteria-spread through coughing and sneezing. In old days they thought it was genetic and they isolated people-Leprae colonies. Now (1940)there is antibiotic treatment to clear up the symptoms in 6-12 months. 14

15. Clostridium perfringes/Bacteria
Gram positive bacillus. Can cause gas gangrene. Often caused from fecal contamination of a wound Usually in the buttocks, thighs, and perineum. Infection may proceed up to 10cm per hour. Often produces large amounts of CO2 and hydrogen . 15

16. Bacterial Shapes 3 main shapes - coccus – sphere - bacillus – rods
- spirillum - spiral

17. Bacterial Structure Cell Wall Cell Membrane Pilus chromosome nucleoid

Do antibiotics cure a viral infection? Why?

19. Virus Video Definition:
Non living particle made up of nucleic acid, protein, and in some cases lipids that can replicate only by infecting living cells

20. Characteristics of Viruses
Intercellular Parasite
- Must replicate inside a host
Mutate Rapidly
Host Specific
Small – from 20nm to 250nm
Replication: VIDEO
Lytic Cycle- cell explodes releasing viral DNA
Lysogenic Cycle- cell replicate with viral DNA inside host 20

22. Vaccinations
Facts and Fiction READ…
Inoculation (shot) that renders recipient immune to the virus.
- Preventative care

23. Small Pox- Lytic Jenner developed first vaccine 1798
Small pox virus can only live in humans. Spread person to person generally through close contact with infected person. Symptoms appear 12 –14 days after exposure. 1st symptoms are fever, tiredness, severe back pain, stomach pain and vomiting. This last 2-3 days and at this time the person is highly contagious to others.Then over the next 5 days the bumps appear. Today we have a vaccine for small pox. We have 15.5 million doses available now. A contract has been made to produce 210 million does this year!! Today the risk of the disease is less than the risk from the vaccine so people do not get vaccinated. Vaccine can be helpful if you are exposed up to 4 days after exposure. 23

24. Herpes Simplex 1/Lysogenic24

25. Shingles-Lysogenic/ Chicken pox virus (herpes varicella-zoster)
Shingles is caused by the chicken pox virus. It can develop in anyone who has had chicken pox. The chicken pox virus remains dormant or inactive (lysogenic cycle) in nerve root cells of the body. Shingles is the second outbreak of the chicken pox virus. Usually happens in older people (65) because of weakened immune system.Typical case of shingles lasts about a month. If you get it on your face you should see a physician because it can led to blindness. 25

26. AIDS/HIV

27. Zika

28. West Nile

29. Yellow Fever

30. Measles, Mumps, Rubella

31. Virus Structure
Helical virus – hollow tube of protein, icosahedron, phage 31

32. Structure - Nucleic Acid – DNA or RNA - Protein coat – called a capsid
Envelope – some contain a layer of membrane taken
from a host cell
- Glycoproteins- identify and bind to receptor sites on the host's membrane

33. Bacteriophage Bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria
- they are responsible for transduction in bacteria 33
