Non-Sporeforming Anaerobes
Non-Sporeforming Anaerobes
Stains gram-variable or gram-negative, but not a gram-negative cell wall
Non-Sporeforming Anaerobes (cont.)
Most Common Sites of Anaerobic
Infection
Characteristics of Anaerobic Infection
Characteristic Clinical Signs of Anaerobic Infection
Anaerobic Gram-Positive Non-Sporeforming Bacterial Infections
Gram-Positive Non-sporeforming
Anaerobes
NOTE: Figure legend in text indicates that each of these organisms is a bacillus (i.e., rod-shaped). This is INCORRECT. Peptostreptococcus is, as the name indicates, a coccus.
Diseases Associated with Anaerobic Gram-Positive Bacilli
Gram Stain and Macroscopic Colonies of Actinomyces
NOTE: Molar tooth appearance of colonies on agar can help remind us that the oral cavity is a common niche for Actinomyces.
Actinomyces Infections
Cervicofacial Actinomycosis
NOTE: Sinus tract originating in oral cavity has made it’s way to the surface at the jawline.
