Actinomyces and Nocardia Chapter 24
教学大纲 • 掌握:放线菌属的形态染色、硫磺样颗粒。 • 熟悉:放线菌的致病性、与龋齿和牙周炎关系。
Actinomyces • A. israeli, A. naeslundii; • G+ • Anaerobic, form filament, Exhibit true branching • Related to decay tooth and peridentitis
Clinical specimens : Actinomycosis-pus Sulfur granule is visible
Opportunist organism, component of oral flora (endogenous) Take advantage of injury topenetrate mucosal barriers Trauma Surgery
Actinomycosis • A chronic suppurative and granulomatous disease of the cervico-facial, thoracic or abdominal areas
Pus contains "Sulfur Granules" • yellow – orange • Composed of mineralized “mycelial” mass • Colony of bacteria
sulfur granule • Form burrowing sinus tracts to skin or mucus membranes—— • Discharge purulent material
nocardia Nocardiosis • G+, rod ,weakly acid-fast • N. asteroides; N. brasiliensis • Subcutaneous infections, pulmonary infections, and brain abscesses
Subcutaneous infections pulmonary infections
Features of actinomycetes Actinomyces:branching bacilli, non-acid fastness, anaerobic, oral ,intestinal ,endogenous flora, chronic cellulitis, draining sinuses Nocardia: branching bacilli ,weak acid fast, aerobic, soil (exogenous ) , pseumonia ,skin pustules , brain abscess
summary • Actinomyces :stain ,clinical feature, disease • Nocardia: stain, disease
