An introduction to the structure of the bacterial cell
Bacterial identification in the diagnostic laboratory versus taxonomy.
Taxonomic characterization of bacteria. Approaches to rapid diagnosis
Anaerobic and aerobic metabolism. Metabolism of sugars and fatty acids
Structure and synthesis of the cell walls of gram-positive and gram negative bacteria
The mode of action of beta-lactam antibiotics
The mode of action of antibacterial chemotherapeutic agents. Antibiotic susceptibility
testing. The mechanisms by which bacteria express resistance to antibiotics
The general composition and structure of bacteriophage.
The infectious process and the lytic multiplication cycle.
The lysogenic cycle and its regulation
The mechanisms of gene transfer in bacteria. The nature of transposable
genetic elements and plasmids. The significance of gene transfer, transposable
genetic elements and plasmids
The structure and transcription of bacterial genes. The molecular mechanisms
that bacteria use to regulate gene activity. Inducible and repressible operons.
The molecular mechanisms involved in catabolite repression and attenuation.
The ways bacteria regulate enzyme activity
Exotoxins and endotoxins, transmission, adhesion, immunopathology
