Chapter 15, Problem 15BS
State or local public health department regularly inspect restaurants to ensure that safe food-handling procedure are used. In most states, detailed reports are available online. Locate such a report for a restaurant in your area. Mark the items on the checklist that cover hygiene and food handling, and explain how each item prevents contamination by pathogenic prokaryotes. Use the same checklist to inspect your own kitchen.

- Answer all of the following true or false questions: True / False: Choose the answer that best fits each statement. write A (true) or B (False) next to the number for the question on the test. The presence of Escherichia coli in water is used as an indication of fecal contamination. The Vibrio species are characterized as being curved, gram negative bacteria with polar flagella. Chlamydia, Rickettsia and Mycoplasma are all obligate intracellular parasites. Neisseria, Staphylococcus, and Streptococcus are all gram-positive cocci. Tetanus, botulism, and diphtheria are diseases caused by gram positive, soil-dwelling, spore- forming rods. Most togaviruses are transmitted to humans via insect bites. The reason why dogs do not get measles is because their cells lack the correct receptor sites for that virus. Glycoprotein spikes are found on the capsids of viruses. A naked virus lacks a capsid. The polioviruses and hepatitis A virus are transmitted by contaminated food or…arrow_forwardAs an aspiring Nurse, the need for the culture of a new pathogenic microorganism in the laboratory has been allocated to you.
