ENTEROBACTERIACEAE Prof. Khalifa Sifaw Ghenghesh
2
Gram-negative rods Facultative anaerobes Oxidase-negative Most members are motile
3
Gastrointestinal diseases (Diarrhoea and Dysentery)
Escherichia coli (Lac+) Salmonella (Lac-) Shigella (Lac-) Yersinia entercolitica (Lac-)
4
Salmonella E. coli
5
Opportunistic diseases
septicemia, pneumonia, meningitis urinary tract infections Citrobacter Enterobacter Escherichia Hafnia Klebsiella Morganella Proteus Providencia Serratia
7
IDENTIFICATION In Stool: Other sites: E. coli
lactose positive not usually identified Common in healthy intestine Shigella, Salmonella,Yersinia lactose negative identified Other sites: identified biochemically
8
SEROTYPING Reference laboratory: antigens O (lipopolysaccharide)
H (flagellar) K (capsular)
9
Escherichia coli
10
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC):
Adhere to surface of mucosal cells inducing dramatic alteration on microvilli and the rearrangement of the host cell actin cytoskeleton. Adhesion is medicated by two genes: A Plasmid-encoded gene (bfpA), responsible for the formation of the bundle forming pilus. A chromosomal-mediated gene (eae) coding for the adhesion intimin. fever diarrhea vomiting nausea non-bloody stools
11
Enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC):
Cholera-like diarrhoea milder Travellers diarrhoea Heat labile toxin (LT) like choleragen (Cholera toxin) activate enterocyte adenyl cyclase cyclic AMP chloride and water secretion >>Diarrhea Heat stable toxin (ST) activate enterocyte guanylate cyclase cyclic GMP Chloride and water secretion >> Diarrhea
12
Enteroinvasive E. coli (EIEC):
Dysentery resembles shigellosis
13
Enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC):
Usually O157:H7 Meat Hemorrhagic bloody, copious diarrhea few leukocytes afebrile Hemolytic-uremic syndrome hemolytic anemia thrombocytopenia (low platelets) kidney failure Vero toxin (Shiga-like): 2 toxins: SLTI and SLTII (coded by sxt1 and sxt2)
14
TREATMENT Gastrointestinal disease: e.g. hemolytic-uremia syndrome
Fluid replacement Antibiotics not used usually unless systemic e.g. hemolytic-uremia syndrome UTIs: Antibiotic Sensitivity Is Necessary.
15
Resistance of Escherichia coli isolated from
urinary tract infections in Benghazi to antibiotics. Hospital Community Antibiotic acquired acquired (n=62) (n=148) Ampicillin 52(84)* 111(75) Carbenicillin 53(85) 117(79) Cephaloridine 22(35) (36) Chloramphenicol 37(60) (45) Gentamicin 19(31) (18) Nalidixic acid (5) (10) Nitrofurantoin 4(6) (7) Tetracycline 45(73) 121(82) Trimethoprim 52(84) 120(81) sulphamethoxazole *(%)
16
Shigella
17
Bacillary Dysentery Shigellosis bloody faeces intestinal pain pus
4 Major O Antigenic Groups: Serogroup A = Sh. dysenteriae Serogroup B = Sh. flexneri Serogroup C = Sh. boydii Serogroup D = Sh. sonnei No H-Antigens.
18
Shiga Toxin enterotoxic cytotoxic inhibits protein synthesis
lysing 28S rRNA
19
The Organism Survive the Passage Through the GIT >> Due to O Antigen Attach to Colonic Cells. Penetrate the Epithelial Cells. >> "Invasiveness" "Inflamation, Cell Death, Ulceration, Impaired Multiply Inside >> Colonic Fluid Absorbtion and a Discharge of Blood, Mucus and Pus" Pass to Another Cell.
20
Man only "reservoir" Mostly young children fecal to oral contact children to adults Transmitted by adult food handlers unwashed hands
21
Patients respond to antibiotics
Treating Shigellosis Manage dehydration Patients respond to antibiotics disease duration diminished
22
CONTROL Adequate Sanitization. Detection and Treatment of Carriers.
Carriers Should Not Be Allowed to Handle Food. Proper Sewage Disposal and Chlorination of Water. FLIES >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

25
Salmonella
26
More than 2000 antigenic types (Serotypes).
Salmonella Typhi Salm. Enteritidis Salm. Cholera-suis Salm. Typhimurium Genetically single species Salmonella enterica Salm. enterica serotype Typhi ANTIGENIC STRUCTURE: O & H Antigens >>> Serotyping. Vi-Antigen (protective) >>> Salm. Typhi.
27
CLINICAL INFECTION AND PATHOGENSIS
1. S. Typhi, S. Paratyphi A and B: Gastroenteritis, bacteremia and typhoid fever. Typhoid Fever (Enteric fever): Fever, headache, diarrhoea, and abdominal pain. Human Carriers Are the Only Source of Infection. Transmission: contaminated food water supply poor sanitary conditions Mortality Rate: Relapse:
28
2. S. Enteritidis, S. Typhimurium, etc..
Salmonellosis: Self-limiting gastroenteritis with fever for <2 days and diarrhoea < 7 days. Source: poultry, eggs no human reservoir Transmission: Pets:
29
TREARMENT: Supportive Therapy and Maintaining Fluid and Electrolyte Balance. Enteric Fever or Septicaemia: Antibiotics essential Carriers of Salm. typhi: CONTROL: Carriers: Food Cooked Properly Water Standards Be Observed.

Salmonella Serotypes Isolated from Diarrhoeic Faeces in Tripoli (1975-1980)
S. Wien S. Muenchen S. Typhimurium Salmonella Serotypes Isolated from Children with Diarrhoea in Tripoli ( ) S. Saintpaul Salmonella Serotypes Isolated from Children with Diarrhoea in Zliten ( ) S. Heidelberg S. Enteritidis
31
Reistance of Salmonella species isolated from children with diarrhoea in Zliten ( ) to antibiotics ________________________________________________ Antibiotic No. (%) resistant: (n=23) Ampicillin (100) Amoxicillin+calvulanic acid 22 (95.7) Cefoxitin (87) Gentamicin (78.3) Doxycycline (91.3) Chloramphenicol (95.7) Nalidixic acid (4.3) Norfloxacin (0.0) Trimethoprim-sulphamehtoxazole 1 (4.3)
