  • gnototbiotic organism grown without any microorganisms
  • positiv effects for MO supply of nutrients, stable environment, constant temp and PH, protection, transport
  • positive effect on us synthesis of vitamins, competition for pathogenic organism, killing non native toxins, stimulation of tissue development, stimulation of cross reactive anti body production
  • Disease infection with subsequent symptons
  • Asymptotic carrier reservoir for pathogenic organisms
  • infectious dose minimal number of pathogens to cause infection
  • Bacterimia presence of pathogens in blood
  • Sepsis pathogens able to multiply in blood
  • Advertisement
  • pathogenicity ability to cause an infection or disease (species specific)
  • virulence degree of pathogenicity (strain specific)
  • lethal dose 50 Kill 50% of organisms affected
  • infectious dose 50 infect 50% of organisms affected
  • Koch Postulates 1.presence in all sick people 2.pure culture possible 3.same symptons of disease 4.isolated same pure culture
