Compressed Know-How: General Classifications used in Microbiology
Taxonomy - It is the systematic arrangement and classification of organisms into related groups
It can be divided into Kingdom and System Classifications.
Kingdom Classification used today is the 5 Kingdom formulated by Robert Whittaker. It contains the following: Animalia, Plantae, Protista (protozoa + algae), Fungi and Monera (bacteria).
Criteria used for the 5 Kingdom Classification:
Cell Type (Prokaryote or Eukaryote)
Cellular Organization (Unicellular or Multicellular)
Nutritional Type (based on Food Acquisition, Energy Source and Carbon Source)
System Classification can be either through Phenetic or Phylogenetic classifications.
Phenetic (Taximetrics) are based on their observable traits or overall similarities.
Eg. Morphology of bacteria, Staining reactions and Metabolic rate of bacteria.
Phylogenetic (Phyletic) is based on the evolutionary development and genetic composition. This will include the familiar taxonomic levels:
Domain
Kingdom
Phylum
Class
Order
Family
Genus
Species
────────────────────────────────────────────
Rules in properly naming bacteria:
In the Binomial System of Nomenclature, it involves the Genus' name, then species epithet eg. Staphylococcus aureus
The name should always be italicized or underlined
Genus' name: 1st letter is capitalized, and the only name that can be abbreviated. (S. aureus)
Species epithet: 1st letter is a small capital letter, or it can be all capitalized (STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS)
Common names of bacteria, as listed below:

Dusting this blog off to announce I'm still chugging along. Bacteriology quiz on Culture + Sensitivity and Biochemical Testing tomorrow unless the weather causes my duty hours to be cancelled. After all those days of insufferable heat, the monsoon season decides to make an entrance.
Might start taking counselling sessions again.

About me
hello everyone 👋 i’m ayl, new to studyblr and i’m a graduate of BS medical technology (medical laboratory science). I’m currently reviewing for my upcoming licensure exam this march. I’ve always had this account for studyinspo but never got to share my academic life. But I’ve decided to be active and actually start posting so yeah let’s be friends 🤍🖤

Transcipts, transcripts and more transcripts 🤧. Midterms: Two major exams to go!
I'm really thankful to the people who made the transcripts. My school's batch really made effort in systematically assign peeps-who-loves-aesthetic-notes to turn the long hour video lectures into nice notes to study.
Quite frankly, I do like reading transcripts. But if the pages are way too many and descriptive, I automatically feel drowsy and could not study for long. I tried moving around in between my breaks but it really is hard for me to have a long study session.
I still have time. Hopefully, before I completed my first year courses I would have mastered a new study technique. One that keeps my lessons retained in my head without doing those long hour study sessions.
Do you guys have any study techniques that I could apply? Let me know in the comments or messages. I tried doing flashcards but it didnt work out well. So far, rewriting long transcripts into shorter bullet sytyle notes was easier for me to do.

Found my Anatomy & Physiology reviewer today and read some parts of it (guess who’s scamming herself lol). I haven’t really formally started studying for our battery examinations (which we still don’t know if when will it take place and here I am, chilling. Lmao.), but I might do so tomorrow since I’ll be buying new penssss (left my study materials at the dorm). This is how I normally do reviewers—lengthwise short bond papers and lots of colors so it wouldn’t look boring. My attention span’s really screwed up so I have to make ways for me not to be bored as heck when I’m studying. 🌙

Medical Snippets: Bacterial Agglutinin Tests (Febrile)
Bacterial agglutination tests are often used to diagnoses diseases in which the bacterial agent is difficult to cultivate in vitro. Diseases diagnosed by this technique include tetanus, yersiniosis, leptospirosis, brucellosis and tularemia.
However, there's a separate agglutinin tests specific for bacteria who causes Febrile/warm agglutinins, active at normal body temperatures, and can trigger fever onto patients.
There are 4 species of bacteria are involved: Salmonella, Brucella, Franciscella and Rickettsia.
The usual fourfold rise in the titer is more significant than a single determination, as antibodies between acute and convalescent sera confirms the infection. For the reporting of results, 1:160 is strongly suggestive for the suspected bacterium.
Agglutination tests for certain diseases, such as typhoid fever (Salmonella) may cross-react with other bacteria due to antibodies or from a previous immunization against typhoid, thus causing false positive reactions.
This panel of testing provides targeted identification of antibodies, which supports differential diagnosis and can provide evidence of exposure.

Been studying for exam season at a new cafe a short walk from my house. Coffee's decent, the atmosphere is peaceful, and it's delightfully small. I've had a hard time keeping still in my own house, so this was a needed change of atmosphere.
Today I passed my immunohematology and clinical chemistry exams (not sure how I managed the last one), and tomorrow I'll do hematology 2 and immunoserology. I'm reviewing white blood cell disorders as of the moment.

Time skip
I have finished my rotation in CLINICAL CHEMISTRY
Thoughts:
It'a kinda scary at first but most of the tests are done by the machine so not too much to worry about.
It's one of the most toxic sections in the lab.
I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO CORRELATE RESULTS WITH ITS POSSIBLE DISEASES.
