Anaerobic spore forming bacilli (Clostridia) Gram negative bacilli non-sporing (Bacteroides) Anaerobic streptococci (
Peptostreptococcus
) Anaerobic staphylococcus (Peptococcus) Gram negative diplococci (Veillonella) Gram positive bacilli (Actinomyces)
Propionibacterium
Bacteroides fragilis
Fusobacterium nucleatum
Antimicrobiolial Sensitivity
• • All of them resistant to aminoglycosides – – – Gentamicine Tobramycin Amikacin Almost all are sensitive to metranidazole (flagyl)
Anaerobiosis
• • • • Lack
cytochrome
-cannot use oxygen as hydrogen acceptor Most Lack – Catalase – Peroxidase Contain
flavoprotein
so in the presence of oxygen produce H2O2 which is toxic Some lack enzyme superoxide dismutase so many killed , peroxide and toxic radicales enzyme like fumarate reductase must be reduced form to work
Anaerobic chamber
NONSPORING ANAEROBES
HABITAT I :
• •
These organism are normal flora in: A. Oropharynx
•
eg. 1. Bacteroides melaninogenicus
Now called provetella melaninogenicus
–
2. Fusobacteria
–
3. Veillonella
HABITAT II
:
•
B. Gastrointestinal tract
– – –
Found mainly in the large colon in large numbers Total number of anaerobes = 10 11 While all aerobes (including E. coli) = 10 4
–
examples are
(1) B acteroides fragilis
(2) Bifidobacterium species
•
C. Female genital tract (mainly in the vagina)
CLINICAL ASPECTS • ANAEROBES ARE INDIGENOUS FLORA OF SKIN & MUCOUS MEMBRANES • NORMALLY CONTAINED AWAY FROM INTERNAL STERILE BODY SITES • HIGH MORBIDITY & MORTALITY
FEATURES OF ANAEROBIC INFECTIONS
• • • • • • • • •
Characterized by foul smell Gas formation Infections are always near to the site of the body which are habitat.
Deep abscesses The infections are also polymicrobial Failure to grow organism from pus if not culture anaerobically.
Failure to respond to usual antibiotics.
Infection from animal bites.
Detection of "Sulphur granules"' due to actinomycosis
INFECTIONS CAUSED BY ,NONSPORING ANAEROBES
• •
A. The head, neck and respiratory tract B. The lower abdomen and the pelvis
INFECTIONS BEGIN • DISRUPTION OF BARRIERS – – – TRAUMA OPERATIONS CANCEROUS INVASION OF TISSUES • DISRUPTION OF BLOOD SUPPLY – DROPS OXYGEN CONTENT OF TISSUE – – DECREASE IN Eh POTENTIAL TISSUE NECROSIS

Infection of the female genital tract Septic abortion Puerperal infection or sepsis Endometritis Pelvic abscess
– – –
12. Other infections a) Breast abscess in puerperal sepsis b) Infection of diabetic patients (diabetic foot infections).
c) Infection of pilonidal sinus
LABORATORY DIAGNOSIS:
•
When anaerobic infection is suspected;
–
a) Specimens have to be collected from the site containing necrotic tissue.
– –
b) Pus is better than swabs.
c) Specimens has to be send to the laboratory within 1/2 hour why?
–
d) Fluid media like cooked meat broth are the best culture media.
–
e) Specimens have to incubated anaerobically for 48 hours.
TREATMENT:
•
Bacteroides fragilis is always resistant to penicillin.
•
But penicillin can he used for other anaerobes
• •
Flagyl (metronidazole) is the drug of choice. Clindamycin can also be used.
