  • can cause congenital deformities Explain whether there is a greater risk for E.coli O157:H7 infection when consuming a hamburger compared to consuming a steak. Can food poisoning still occur after consuming a reheated pot of soup known to be contaminated with S.auerus. Why or why not. - E.coli is a gram negative bacteria that is commonly found in the intestines. E.coli O157: H7 is a strain of E.coli that causes diarrhea. E.coli usually exists on the surface of whole cut meats, it is much easier to kill this bacteria on whole cut meat rather than ground beef. S. Aureus is a gram positive pathogen known to cause infection. When food is initially cooked it should be killed off like E.coli. But there is potential for the food to be contaminated after it cools down. The pathogen has potential to produce heat resistant enterotoxins that are able to survive in the heating process Differentiate between components of first and second line of defense. List 3 components of each line along with details on their mechanism - First LOD
  • nonspecific
  • physical and chemical barriers
  • a surface of protection composed of anatomical and physiological barriers hat keeps microbes from penetrating sterile body components Second LOD:
  • nonspecific
  • phagocytosis, inflammation, fever, anti microbial proteins
  • a cellular and chemical system that comes immediately into play if infectious agents make it past the surface defense Explain the process of inflammation- the four cardinal signs and the mechanism. What are the two most common mediators of inflammation and their role in the process. - Rubor- redness Calor- warmth Tumor- swelling Dolor- pain Histamine Mast cells: involved with allergic and inflammatory reaction Cytokines: materials secreted by immune system
