1. Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the bacterium that causes tuberculosis. It has a waxy cell wall and grows very slowly, making it difficult to treat.
2. When inhaled, M. tuberculosis is engulfed by alveolar macrophages but can replicate within them, causing the macrophages to die and triggering a cell-mediated immune response.
3. Diagnosis involves staining sputum samples with acid-fast dyes to identify the acid-fast bacilli under microscopy. Tuberculin skin tests can also indicate a previous infection with M. tuberculosis.
This document discusses techniques for cultivating viruses. It explains that viruses require living host cells to replicate and describes three main cultivation methods: animal inoculation, embryonated egg inoculation, and tissue culture. Animal inoculation involves infecting animals like mice to isolate and study viruses, but it is expensive and raises welfare issues. Embryonated egg inoculation is commonly used to grow viruses by inoculating eggs at specific sites, and it is cost-effective but each virus grows at different sites. Tissue culture uses cell monolayers and is versatile but requires specialized facilities and technicians. The document provides details on each technique's advantages, disadvantages and applications.

Mumps is an acute viral infection characterized by swelling of the parotid glands. It is caused by the mumps virus, a paramyxovirus. The virus is transmitted through saliva or respiratory droplets. While mumps was historically common in children, vaccination has significantly reduced cases in developed nations. An effective live virus vaccine provides protection for at least 10 years when administered after 1 year of age.
This document discusses the history and types of vaccines. It notes that smallpox inoculation began in India over 2000 years ago, and that Edward Jenner is credited with developing the first vaccine for smallpox using cowpox in 1796. Vaccines work by stimulating adaptive immunity to diseases. There are several types of vaccines including whole-organism vaccines using attenuated or inactivated pathogens, purified macromolecule vaccines using polysaccharides, toxoids or recombinant antigens, and DNA vaccines where plasmid DNA encoding antigens is directly injected.
This document provides an overview of immunology concepts and terminology. It begins with definitions of key terms like antigen, antibody, innate immunity and acquired immunity. It then describes in more detail:
- The cells and organs involved in the immune system like B cells, T cells, lymph nodes, spleen.
- Types of immunity like natural, artificial, active, passive.
- Mechanisms of innate immunity like epithelial barriers, mucus, cilia, antimicrobial peptides, inflammation, fever.
- Antigen-antibody reactions like precipitation, agglutination, complement fixation, neutralization.
- Structure and properties of antibodies like IgG, IgM, IgA classes.
So
Viruses can be grown through three main methods: inoculation into animals, inoculation into embryonated eggs, and tissue culture. Embryonated eggs are commonly used because they provide an ideal substrate for viral growth and replication. Viruses are inoculated into 7-12 day old chick embryos through the shell and incubated for 2-3 days, then isolated from embryo tissue. While eggs are inexpensive and easy to maintain, different viruses grow in different locations within the egg. Tissue culture involves digesting tissues and mixing individual cells with viral growth medium in flasks, providing a broad method for cultivation but requiring trained technicians. Animal inoculation allows for studying pathogenesis but is expensive and raises welfare issues.

Infectious laryngotracheitis (ILT) is an economically important respiratory disease of poultry. This highly contagious disease is caused by Gallid alpha herpesvirus type 1 (GaHV-1), commonly known as infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV). The virus can be easily transmitted by infected birds and fomites. Lax biosecurity, transportation of infected birds, and spread of contaminated litter facilitates spread of the virus. Clinical signs of respiratory disease are not pathognomonic. Diagnosis is by real-time PCR and histopathology . Implementation of biosecurity is necessary for prevention, but vaccination is commonly used for control of the disease in endemic regions worldwide.
- Mycobacterium tuberculosis causes tuberculosis and infects around 1.7 million people annually, causing over 9 million new cases and 1.7 million deaths per year. An estimated 500,000 people are infected with multidrug resistant strains.
- Risk of infection and disease is highest among socioeconomically disadvantaged people with poor housing and nutrition. Tuberculosis is transmitted via respiratory aerosols from people with active, untreated tuberculosis.
- Laboratory diagnosis involves microscopy, culture, and molecular techniques using sputum, gastric washings, urine, tissues or other clinical samples. Staining methods like Ziehl-Neelsen identify acid-fast bacilli. Culturing is needed for species identification and drug
Paracoccidioidomycosis is a fungal infection caused by Paracoccidioides species. It primarily involves the lungs and can disseminate to other organs. The disease ranges from asymptomatic to acute or chronic forms. Diagnosis involves microscopic examination of clinical samples to identify the characteristic yeast forms and culture growth at 37°C. Treatment requires long-term antifungal therapy for 6-12 months.
Vaccines are biological preparations that improve immunity to particular diseases. They work by containing an agent that resembles a disease-causing microorganism, which stimulates the immune system to recognize and destroy it. Vaccination is the most effective method of preventing infectious diseases and has been largely responsible for eradicating smallpox and restricting diseases like polio. There are several types of vaccines including live attenuated, inactivated, subunit, toxoid, conjugate, DNA, and recombinant vector vaccines. Vaccines must undergo clinical trials and require careful storage and transport to maintain effectiveness.
Measles virus is an enveloped virus that causes the highly contagious disease measles. It enters the body through respiratory secretions and multiplies locally before spreading systemically. This causes a characteristic rash and other symptoms. Laboratory diagnosis involves detecting viral antigens, isolating the virus, or detecting antibodies. Vaccination with live attenuated vaccines provides effective long-term protection against measles.
M. tuberculosis and M. leprae are acid-fast bacilli that cause tuberculosis and leprosy, respectively. M. tuberculosis was discovered in 1882 and is transmitted through droplets. It has a cell wall containing mycolic acids and is a slow growing obligate aerobe. Laboratory diagnosis involves acid-fast staining of samples from sputum or tissues, as well as culturing on media like LJ. Treatment uses multi-drug therapy including isoniazid and rifampin. M. leprae causes a chronic granulomatous disease affecting skin and nerves. It is not cultivable but can be propagated in animals. Classification systems include tuberculoid, lepromatous, and
This document provides an overview of vaccines and immunization. It begins with terminology and describes the types of immunity produced by vaccines. It then discusses the historical development of various vaccines including smallpox, polio, and measles vaccines. The document outlines Kenya's Expanded Program on Immunization including its objectives, components, and policies. Common vaccines used in Kenya like BCG, polio, measles, pentavalent and tetanus are described in terms of composition, dosage, administration, storage requirements, indications and contraindications. The importance of monitoring vaccine needs and evaluating immunization programs is also highlighted.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the bacterium that causes tuberculosis. It has unusually waxy cell walls that are acid-fast staining and slow growing. M. tuberculosis is inhaled into the lungs where it is engulfed by alveolar macrophages but can evade destruction and replicate within the macrophages. This can lead to cell death, spread to lymph nodes, and development of lesions. Tuberculosis may be primary infection or reactivation from a dormant infection, and it is diagnosed through smear microscopy, culture, or tuberculin skin testing. Treatment involves a combination of antibiotics over several months.

1. Leucosolenia is a type of asconoid marine sponge that is colonial, branching, and attaches to rocks in tidal shore areas.
2. It has horizontal and vertical tubes with numerous pores and openings called ostia that lead into a central cavity called the spongocoel, which exits through an osculum.
3. The body wall is diploblastic, composed of an outer ectoderm and inner choanoderm separated by mesenchyme. Reproduction can occur asexually through budding of new individuals or sexually as the sponge is hermaphroditic and releases gametes into the water for fertilization.
It is a technology of growing mushrooms using plant, animal and industrial waste. This technology has gained importance worldwide because of its dietary fibres andproteins value.
This document discusses multiple alleles and uses the ABO blood group system as an example. It explains that there are 3 alleles (IA, IB, and IO) that control the presence or absence of antigens A and B on red blood cells. The IA allele produces the A antigen, IB produces the B antigen, and IO produces no antigens. These 3 alleles follow Mendelian inheritance patterns and can be used to determine parentage in disputed cases or identify criminals through blood evidence. Blood typing is also important for blood transfusions to match donors and recipients safely.
The document discusses three types of inborn errors of metabolism: phenylketonuria, which is caused by a recessive gene preventing the conversion of phenylalanine to tyrosine, leading to accumulation of phenylalanine derivatives; alkaptonuria, caused by a recessive gene preventing the conversion of homogentistic acid, turning the urine black; and albinism, a recessive condition preventing the production of the enzyme tyrosinase needed to produce melanin pigment.
1. Erythroblastosis foetalis is a haemolytic disease of newborns characterized by jaundice and anemia due to the destruction of red blood cells.
2. It occurs when an Rh- mother has an Rh+ baby and her immune system produces antibodies against the Rh+ blood type.
3. The antibodies destroy the baby's red blood cells leading to jaundice and anemia and can potentially cause liver damage or death if severe.
Cancer arises from uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells that do not follow normal cell cycle regulations. It can develop from chronic irritation or exposure to carcinogens like radiation, chemicals, and pollution. The main types are carcinomas, sarcomas, lymphomas, and teratomas, which originate from different tissues. Cancer is typically diagnosed through microscopic examination of biopsied cell or tissue samples for abnormal characteristics. Common signs include changes in bodily functions or appearance of lumps and growths.
Cancer is characterized by uncontrolled cell growth that can spread to other parts of the body. It arises from existing tissues and the cancer cells have lost contact inhibition and regulation of growth. Some causes of cancer include chronic irritation, atmospheric pollution, smoking, radiation, and chemicals. Cancers are classified as either malignant tumors, which grow rapidly and spread, or benign tumors, which are confined to their origin. Diagnosis involves examining cell and tissue samples under a microscope to identify abnormal cancer cells.

I.Morphology
• It belongs to Gram-
positive and is a slender,
straight or slightly curved
rod, 0.5-4µ in length.
• It may have terminal
swellings.
• The organisms are
nonmotile,
pleomorphous, and do
not form spores or
capsules.
• They stain poorly by the
ordinary methods but are
stained well with the
Ziehl-Neelsen method.
3. II.Cultivation
• The organisms grow on
selective media, eg.,
coagulated serum,
glycerin agar, glycerin
potato, glycerin broth,
and egg media.
• Visible growth appears
within 8-10days after
inoculation on glycerin
agar, but in 2-3weeks a
dry cream-coloured
pellicle is produced.
4. III.Toxin production
• It does not produce an
exotoxin.
• It contains toxic substances
that are liberated when the
cell decomposes.
• These organisms consist of
tuberculin substances
responsible for the diseases.
•
• This is composed of the
proteins albumins and
nucleoproteins.
IV.Antigenic structure
• Mycobacterial antigens
produce agglutins,
opsonins, precipitins, and
complement-fixing bodied
in low titres.
• Tuberculin is considered to
be a peculiar antigen
(hapten).
• Tuberculin is widely used for
allergic tests, eg., the
pirquet reaction and
Mantoux test in human
beings.
• These tests are employed
for the determination of
infection with
M.tuberculosis.
5. V.Pathogenesis and disease
in man:
• It has been shown that
tuberculosis in human
beings is caused by two
types of mycobacteria.
They are
• 1. The human type-
M.tuberculosis
• 2. The bovine type-
M.bovis
• Infection with
tuberculosis takes place
through the respiratory
tract by the droplets and
dust, and, sometimes
through contaminated
foodstuffs, through the
skin and mucous
membranes.
• From the lungs it spreads
throughout the body,
causing generalized
infection.
6. VI.Immunity
• Man is naturally resistant to
tuberculosis.
• Active immunization -
Intracutaneous
immunization and
revaccination of BCG are
very effective.
• It enters the body through
inhalation.
• It gets lodged in pulmonary
alveoli.
• Alveoli phagocytes engulf
them.
• The bacilli multiply
intracellularly and are
carried to various parts of
the body.
• This bacterium does not
produce any toxin, but due
to rapid growth, the tissues
are consumed.
• In children, primary
infection leads to primary
complex. The adult type of
tuberculosis is due to the
reactivation of the primary
infection.
7. VII.Laboratory diagnosis
• Bacillus in the lesions by
microscopy.
• isolating it in pure
culture, or transmitting
the infection to
experimental animals.
• Demonstration of
hypersensitivity to
tuberculoprotein is of
some diagnostic value
Mantoux test
• In this test, 0.1ml of PPD
(Purified Protein
Derivative) containing
5TU (tuberculin units) is
injected intracutaneously
on the forearm, using a
tuberculin syringe.
• The site is examined 48-
72 hours later and the
diameter of induration is
measured. Erythema is
not taken into account.
8. • Induration of diameter
10mm or more is
considered positive.
• The measure of 5mm or
less is considered
negative.
• The measure of 6-9mm is
considered doubtful
9. VIII.Treatment
• Chemotherapy is more
effective.
• Bactericidal drugs like
rifampicin, isoniazid,
pyrazinamide,
streptomycin, and
bacteriostatic drugs such
as ethionamide, para
aminosalicylic acid, and
cycloserine are used.
IX.Epidemiology
• Low socioeconomic
status and malnutrition
are important features.
Dusty occupation,
exposure to silica dust
favour tuberculosis.
• Inhalation of
contaminated air is the
principal mode of
infection.
10. • X.Prophylaxis
Adequate nutrition, good housing, and health
education reduce the occurrence of tuberculosis.
Injection of BCG produces an immunity that lasts for
10-15 years. The latter consist of early detection and
treatment of cases, chemoprophylaxis, and
immunoprophylaxis.
