The diplococci bacteria are round-shaped microbes, and occur in the form of cell pairs. Gram-
negative is a term used in association with these bacteria, which means that a crystal violet dye is
not retained (in the protocol of Gram staining) by these organisms. Those bacteria, which retain
this dye are known as gram positive.
Neisseria Meningitidis:
It is amongst the most important gram negative diplococci, and is responsible for causing
meningitis. . It is a leading cause of fatal bacterial meningitis . Meningitis may be accompanied
by appearance of petechiae (rash) that is associated with meningococcal bacteremia
(i.e.,meningococemia).
Symptoms
Early meningitis symptoms may mimic the flu (influenza). Symptoms may develop over several
hours or over a few days.
Possible signs and symptoms in anyone older than the age of 2 include:
· Sudden high fever
· Stiff neck
· Severe headache that seems different than normal
· Headache with nausea or vomiting
· Confusion or difficulty concentrating
· Seizures
· Sleepiness or difficulty waking
· Sensitivity to light
· No appetite or thirst
· Skin rash (sometimes, such as in meningococcal meningitis)
Doctor will also order a lumbar puncture. This test is also called a spinal tap. It allows your
doctor to look for increased pressure in the central nervous system. It can also find inflammation
or bacteria in the spinal fluid. This test can also help determine the best antibiotic for treatment.
Bacterial meningitis requires immediate hospitalization. Early diagnosis and treatment will
prevent brain damage and death. Bacterial meningitis is treated with intravenous antibiotics.
There’s no specific antibiotic for bacterial meningitis. It depends on the bacteria involved.

The diplococci bacteria are round-shaped microbes, and occur in the .pdf

  • 1. The diplococci bacteria are round-shaped microbes, and occur in the form of cell pairs. Gram- negative is a term used in association with these bacteria, which means that a crystal violet dye is not retained (in the protocol of Gram staining) by these organisms. Those bacteria, which retain this dye are known as gram positive. Neisseria Meningitidis: It is amongst the most important gram negative diplococci, and is responsible for causing meningitis. . It is a leading cause of fatal bacterial meningitis . Meningitis may be accompanied by appearance of petechiae (rash) that is associated with meningococcal bacteremia (i.e.,meningococemia). Symptoms Early meningitis symptoms may mimic the flu (influenza). Symptoms may develop over several hours or over a few days. Possible signs and symptoms in anyone older than the age of 2 include: · Sudden high fever · Stiff neck · Severe headache that seems different than normal · Headache with nausea or vomiting · Confusion or difficulty concentrating · Seizures · Sleepiness or difficulty waking · Sensitivity to light · No appetite or thirst · Skin rash (sometimes, such as in meningococcal meningitis) Doctor will also order a lumbar puncture. This test is also called a spinal tap. It allows your doctor to look for increased pressure in the central nervous system. It can also find inflammation or bacteria in the spinal fluid. This test can also help determine the best antibiotic for treatment. Bacterial meningitis requires immediate hospitalization. Early diagnosis and treatment will prevent brain damage and death. Bacterial meningitis is treated with intravenous antibiotics. There’s no specific antibiotic for bacterial meningitis. It depends on the bacteria involved.
