Clasificación

Diagrama de flujo de clasificación de bacterias gram negativas

Bacterias gram-negativas:
La mayoría de las bacterias se pueden clasificar de acuerdo con un procedimiento de laboratorio llamado tinción de Gram.
Las bacterias con paredes celulares que tienen una capa delgada de peptidoglicano que no retiene la tinción de cristal violeta utilizada en la tinción de Gram. Sin embargo, estas bacterias retienen la contratinción de safranina y, por lo tanto, se tiñen de color rojo rosado, lo que las convierte en gram-negativas. Estas bacterias pueden clasificarse además según su morfología (diplococos, bacilos curvos, bacilos y cocobacilos) y su capacidad para crecer en presencia de oxígeno (aeróbicas vs. anaeróbicas). Las bacterias se pueden identificar de manera más estrecha cultivándolas en medios específicos (agar hierro- triple azúcar (agar TSI, por sus siglas en inglés)) donde se pueden identificar sus enzimas (ureasa, oxidasa) y se puede probar su capacidad para fermentar lactosa.

Patogenia de la infección por Proteus

Patogenia de la infección por Proteus
Las bacterias aumentan el pH de la orina al activar la actividad de la ureasa. La ureasa metaboliza la urea en amoníaco y dióxido de carbono. Estos subproductos aumentan el pH de la orina, predisponiendo al paciente a la formación de cálculos de estruvita. Los cálculos y la infección bacteriana conducen al daño uroepitelial.
