©McGraw-Hill Education Concepts in
Antimicrobial Control Term Definition Key Points Examples of Agents Sterilization Process that destroys or removes all viable microorganisms (including viruses) The term sterile should be used only in the strictest sense to refer to materials that have been subjected to the process of sterilization (there is no such thing as slightly sterile) Generally reserved for inanimate objects as it would be impractical or dangerous to sterilize parts of the human body Common uses: surgical instruments, syringes, commercially packaged food Heat (autoclave) Sterilants (chemical agents capable of destroying endospores) Disinfection Physical process or a chemical agent to destroy vegetative pathogens but not bacterial endospores Removes harmful products of microorganisms (toxins) from material Normally used on inanimate objects because the concentration of disinfectants required to be effective is harmful to human tissue Common uses: boiling food utensils, applying 5% bleach solution to an examining table, immersing thermometers in an iodine solution between uses Decontamination/ Sanitization Cleansing technique that mechanically removes microorganisms as well as other debris to reduce contamination to safe levels Important to restaurants, dairies, breweries, and other commercial entities that handle large numbers of soiled utensils/containers Common uses: Cooking utensils, dishes, bottles, and cans must be sanitized for reuse Antisepsis/ Degermation Reduces the number of microbes on the human skin A form of decontamination but on living tissues Involves scrubbing the skin (mechanical friction) or immersing it in chemicals (or both) Alcohol Surgical hand scrubs

©McGraw-Hill Education Agents versus
Processes(1) Sterilization and disinfection: processes Agents used in the process • Bactericide: chemical that destroys bacteria except for those in the endospore stage • Fungicide: chemical that can kill fungal spores, hyphae, yeasts • Virucide: chemical known to inactivate viruses, especially on living tissue • Sporicide: an agent capable of destroying bacterial endospores • Germicide/microbicide: chemical agents that kill microorganisms
8.
©McGraw-Hill Education Agents versus
Processes(2) Sepsis: the growth of microorganisms in the blood and other tissues Asepsis: • Any practice that prevents the entry of infectious agents into sterile tissues and thus prevents infection • Aseptic techniques: practiced in health care; range from sterile methods to antisepsis
9.
©McGraw-Hill Education Agents versus
Processes(3) Antiseptics: chemical agents applied directly to exposed body surfaces (skin and mucous membranes), wounds, and surgical incisions to prevent vegetative pathogens • Preparing the skin before surgical incisions with iodine compounds • Swabbing an open root canal with hydrogen peroxide • Ordinary hand washing with a germicidal soap
10.
©McGraw-Hill Education Agents versus
Processes(4) Stasis and static mean “to stand still” Bacteristatic: chemical agents that prevent the growth of bacteria on tissues or on objects in the environment Fungistatic: chemicals that inhibit fungal growth Antiseptics and drugs often have microbistatic effects because microbicidal compounds can be toxic to human cells Even a -cidal agent does not necessarily result in sterilization, depending on how it is used
11.
©McGraw-Hill Education Microbial Control
on Medical Devices Critical medical devices: • Expected to come into contact with sterile tissues • Must be sterilized before use Semicritical devices: • Come into contact with mucosal membranes • Must receive high-level disinfection, preferably sterilized Noncritical devices: • Do not touch the patient or only touch intact skin • Require only low-level disinfection unless they become contaminated with blood or body fluids
12.
©McGraw-Hill Education What Is
Microbial Death? Death: permanent termination of an organism’s vital processes Microbes have no conspicuous vital processes; therefore, death is difficult to determine Permanent loss of reproductive capability, even under optimum growth conditions, has become the accepted microbiological definition of death
13.
©McGraw-Hill Education Factors Affecting
Death Rate Death of the whole population is not instantaneous: • Begins when a certain threshold of microbicidal agent is met • Death continues in a logarithmic manner as the time or concentration is increased • Active cells tend to die more quickly than less metabolically active cells • Eventually, a point is reached at which survival of any cells is highly unlikely; this point is equivalent to sterilization
14.
©McGraw-Hill Education Factors That
Influence the Action of Antimicrobial Agents(1) The number of microbes: • Higher load of contaminants takes longer to destroy The nature of the microorganisms in the population: • Target population is usually a mixture of bacteria, fungi, spores, and viruses with broad spectrum of resistance Temperature and pH of the environment
15.
©McGraw-Hill Education Factors That
Influence the Action of Antimicrobial Agents(2) The concentration (dose, intensity) of the agent: • UV radiation is most effective at 260 nm • Most disinfectants are more active at higher concentrations The mode of action of the agent: • How does it kill or inhibit the microorganism? The presence of solvents, interfering organic matter, and inhibitors: • Saliva, blood, and feces can inhibit the actions of disinfectants and even of heat
16.
©McGraw-Hill Education Actions of
Various Physical and Chemical Agents upon the Cell Cellular Target Effects of Agents Examples of Agents Used Cell wall Chemical agents can damage the cell wall by • blocking its synthesis, or • digesting it Chemicals Detergents Alcohol Cytoplasmic membrane Agents physically bind to lipid layer of the cytoplasmic membrane. This opens up the cytoplasmic membrane and allows damaging chemicals to enter the cell and important ions to exit the cell. Detergents Cellular synthesis Agents can interrupt the synthesis of proteins via the ribosomes, inhibiting proteins needed for growth and metabolism and preventing multiplication. Agents can change genetic codes (mutation). Formaldehyde Radiation Ethylene oxide Proteins Some agents are capable of denaturing proteins (breaking of protein bonds, which results in breakdown of the protein structure). Agents may attach to the active site of a protein, preventing it from interacting with its chemical substrate. Moist heat Alcohol Phenolics
17.
©McGraw-Hill Education Methods of
Physical Control: Heat Elevated temperatures are microbicidal Lower temperatures are microbistatic Moist heat: hot water, boiling water, or steam between 60°C and 135°C Dry heat: hot air or an open flame, which ranges from 160°C to several thousand degrees C

20.
©McGraw-Hill Education Heat Resistance
and Thermal Death: Endospores and Vegetative Cells Bacterial endospores: • Exhibit greatest resistance • Destruction of spores usually requires temperatures above boiling Vegetative cells: • Vary in sensitivity to heat • Death times vary from 50°C for 3 minutes to 60°C for 60 minutes
21.
©McGraw-Hill Education Thermal Death
Measurements Thermal death time (TDT): shortest length of time required to kill all test microbes at a specified temperature Thermal death point (TDP): the lowest temperature required to kill all microbes in a sample in 10 minutes Heat treatment of perishable substances must render the product free of agents of spoilage or disease without affecting the speed and cost of processing

©McGraw-Hill Education The Effects
of Desiccation and Lyophilization Desiccation: • Vegetative cells directly exposed to normal room temperature gradually become dehydrated • Some microbes are killed by desiccation; many others are not killed and some are even preserved Lyophilization: • Combination of freezing and drying • Method of preserving microorganisms in a viable state for many years • Pure cultures are frozen instantaneously and exposed to a vacuum that removes water, avoiding the formation of ice crystals

©McGraw-Hill Education Filtration Effective method
to remove microbes from air and liquids: • Fluid is strained through a filter with openings large enough for the fluid to pass, but too small for microbes • Also used are thin membranes of cellulose acetate, polycarbonate, and plastics whose pore size is carefully controlled • Charcoal, diatomaceous earth, or unglazed porcelain are also used • Pore sizes can be controlled to permit true sterilization by trapping viruses or large proteins
29.
©McGraw-Hill Education Uses of
Filtration Used to prepare liquids that cannot withstand heat such as serum, blood products, vaccines, drugs, IV fluids, enzymes, and media Alternative method for decontaminating milk and beer without altering their flavor Important step in water purification Unable to remove soluble molecules (toxins) that can cause disease High-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters are used in hospital rooms and sterile rooms

©McGraw-Hill Education Principles of Antimicrobial
Therapy The introduction of modern drugs to control infections was a medical revolution in the 1940s Antimicrobial drugs have reduced the incidence of certain infections, but they have not eradicated infectious diseases and probably never will Today, doctors are worried that we are dangerously close to a postantibiotic era, where the drugs we have are no longer effective
46.
©McGraw-Hill Education Antimicrobial Chemotherapy Goal
of antimicrobial chemotherapy: • Administer a drug to an infected person that destroys the infective agent without harming the host’s cells A drug must be able to: • Be easy to administer and able to reach the infectious agent anywhere in the body • Be absolutely toxic to the infectious agent and absolutely nontoxic to the host • Remain active in the body as long as needed and be safely and easily broken down and excreted
47.
©McGraw-Hill Education Characteristics of
the Ideal Antimicrobial Drug • Toxic to the microbe but nontoxic to host cells • Microbiocidal rather than microbiostatic • Relatively soluble; functions even when highly diluted in body fluids • Remains potent long enough to act and is not broken down or excreted prematurely • Does not lead to the development of antimicrobial resistance • Complements or assists the activities of the host’s defenses • Remains active in tissues and body fluids • Readily delivered to the site of infection • Reasonably priced
48.
©McGraw-Hill Education Terminology of
Antimicrobials Prophylaxis Use of a drug to prevent infection of a person at risk Antimicrobial Chemotherapy The use of drugs to control infection Antimicrobials All-inclusive term for any antimicrobial drug, regardless of its origin Antibiotics Substances produced by the natural metabolic processes of some microorganisms that can inhibit or destroy other microorganisms; generally, the term is used for drugs targeting bacteria and not other types of microbes Semisynthetic Drugs Drugs that are chemically modified in the laboratory after being isolated from natural sources Synthetic Drugs Drugs produced entirely by chemical reactions Narrow-Spectrum (Limited Spectrum) Antimicrobials effective against a limited array of microbial types—for example, a drug effective mainly against gram-positive bacteria Broad-Spectrum (Extended Spectrum) Antimicrobials effective against a wide variety of microbial types—for example, a drug effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria
49.
©McGraw-Hill Education Origins of
Antimicrobial Drugs Antibiotics are natural metabolic products of bacteria and fungi: • Produced to inhibit the growth of competing microbes in the same habitat (antagonism) Greatest numbers derived from: • Bacteria in the genera Streptomyces and Bacillus • Molds in the genera Penicillium and Cephalosporium

ratio of the dose of the drug that is toxic to humans as compared to its minimum effective (therapeutic) dose: • The smaller the ratio, the greater the potential for toxic drug reactions • TI = 1.1 is a risky choice • TI = 10 is a safer choice • The drug with the highest therapeutic index has the widest margin of safety
57.
©McGraw-Hill Education Before Prescribing
an Antibiotic The physician must take a careful history before prescribing an antibiotic: • Preexisting conditions that might influence the activity of the drug or the response of the patient • History of allergy to a certain class of drugs • Underlying liver or kidney disease • Infants, the elderly, and pregnant women require special precautions • Intake of other drugs can result in increased toxicity or failure of one or more drugs • Some drug combinations have synergistic effects, may allow for reduced dosages
58.
©McGraw-Hill Education Goal of
Antimicrobial Drugs Disrupt cell processes or structures of bacteria, fungi, or protozoa Inhibit virus replication Interfere with the function of enzymes required to synthesize or assemble macromolecules Destroy structures already formed in the cell Selectively toxic: kill or inhibit microbial cells without damaging host tissues
59.
©McGraw-Hill Education Interactions Between Drug
and Microbe Drugs with excellent selective toxicity block the synthesis of the bacterial cell wall (penicillins): • Human cells lack the chemical peptidoglycan and are unaffected by the drug Drugs most toxic to humans: • Drugs that act upon a structure common to both the infective agent and the host cell (cytoplasmic membrane) • As characteristics of the infectious agent are more and more similar to the host cell, selective toxicity becomes more difficult to achieve

of Disease in Populations Epidemiology: • Study of frequency and distribution of disease and other health-related factors in defined populations • Involves many disciplines: microbiology, anatomy, physiology, immunology, medicine, psychology, sociology, ecology, and statistics • Considers all forms of disease: heart disease, cancer, drug addiction, and mental illness

in the Population Reportable or notifiable diseases: • Certain diseases must be reported to authorities • Other diseases are reported on a voluntary basis A network of individuals and agencies at the local, district, state, national, and international levels keeps track of infectious diseases

©McGraw-Hill Education Epidemiological Statistics(1) Prevalence:
total number of existing cases in a given population; snapshot • Total number of cases in population ÷ total number of persons in population × 100 = % • Example: The prevalence of smoking among adults in the U.S. is 17% currently Incidence: the number of new cases over a certain time period • Number of new cases in a designated time period÷ total number of susceptible persons (usually reported per 100,000 persons): • Example: The incidence of new Lyme disease cases in the U.S. in 2014 was 8.6 per 100,000

of concern to the epidemiologist are rates of disease with regard to sex, race, or geographic region Mortality rate: • Measures the total number of deaths in a population due to a certain disease • Overall death rate from infectious diseases has dropped, although the number of persons afflicted with infectious rates (morbidity rate) has remained high

©McGraw-Hill Education Epidemics Common-source epidemic:
results from common exposure to a single source of infection over a period of time Propagated epidemic: results from an infectious agent that is communicable from person to person and is sustained over time in a population Point-source epidemic: infectious agent came from a single source, and all of its “victims” were infected at once

Terms Index case: may not be the first case of the disease, but it is the first case that brought the epidemic to the attention of officials Endemic: an infectious disease that exhibits a relatively steady frequency over a long time period in a particular geographic locale Sporadic: occasional cases are reported at irregular intervals at random locales Epidemic: when statistics indicate that the prevalence of an endemic or sporadic disease is increasing beyond what is expected for a population Pandemic: spread of an epidemic across continents
