1 Gram-negative rods: Enterobacteriaceae Part II Common Organisms Karen Honeycutt, M.Ed., MLS(ASCP) CM SM CM Session Enterobacteriaceae Antigens O somatic, part of cell wall (serogroup) Stimulates earliest antibody K capsular, heat labile (serotype) Vi (virulence) specific Salmonella Typhi K antigen H flagellar, heat labile (serotype) Latest antibodies formed Use specific antisera to identify organisms beyond species level Example: O157:H7 All Pictures Copyright University of Nebraska 2006 Most common facultative organism in stool Colony counts to determine fecal contamination of water E. coli inert/inactive group Biochemically very inert Nonmotile Can be biochemically mistaken for a Shigella (a stool pathogen) BAP: beta-hemolytic EMB: green metallic sheen Colony morphology MAC: dark pink diffuses around colony #1 etiologic agent of UTI - nephropathogenic Meningitis in 0-3 month age group Enterohemorrhagic produces Shiga toxin/verotoxin: example E. coli O157:H7 Ingest contaminated food (undercooked hamburger, unpastuerized apple juice & milk, leaf lettuce) Bloody diarrhea Children especially susceptible to HUS Enterobacteriaceae II Page 1

2 Enterohemorrhagic produces Shiga toxin/verotoxin: example E. coli O157:H7 Acute community acquired diarrhea: screen all stools submitted Rapid tests to detect toxin production: EIA, molecular (PCR) Specific screening agar: SMAC, agar with sorbitol (not lactose) E. coli O157:H7 is sorbitol neg (clear on SMAC) Gastroenteritis (not EHEC) 4 distinct syndromes caused by 4 distinct E. coli strains Usually not diagnosed by culture Identification Beta-hemolytic EMB: Green metallic sheen Abbreviated Id Not applicable for blood or gastrointestinal specimens GNR Oxidase negative Non-swarming, beta-hemolytic on BAP positive Agar Indole Citrate Abbreviated Id Not applicable for blood or gastrointestinal specimens GNR Oxidase negative Non-hemolytic BAP, lactose-fermenting positive PYR negative Shigella sp. Disease State Overt or primary pathogen (never NF) Bacillary dysentery or shigellosis Only human to human transfer 4 subgroups (A, B, C, D) Shigella sonnei (subgroup D) most common in US and least severe disease Enterobacteriaceae II Page 2

Overt or primary pathogen (not NF) Gastroenteritis: mild to fatal (dehydration) Ingestion of contaminated food, water, milk Chicken, eggs Contact with infected animals Reptiles Human to human transfer Usually doesn t invade bloodstream Salmonella Typhi Overt or primary pathogen (not NF) Typhoid fever Transmission: human to human Specimens: blood, urine then stool Salmonella sp. Identification Glucose F Red pigment Serratia sp. Not LF pathogen Serratia marcescens Hospitals Can produce a red pigment!! Lactose nonfermenter LDC + Enterobacteriaceae II Page 3
