Microbial Diseases of the Digestive
System
• Transmitted in food and water
• Fecal-oral cycle can be broken by:
• Proper sewage disposal
• Disinfection of drinking water
• Proper food preparation and storage

The Digestive System
2008
Figure 25.1
Normal Microbiota
• >300 species in mouth
• Large numbers in large intestine, including:
• Bacteroides
• E. coli
• Enterobacter
• Klebsiella
• Lactobacillus
• Proteus

Bacterial Diseases of the Lower Digestive System
• Symptoms usually include diarrhea, gastroenteritis,
dysentery
• Treated with fluid and electrolyte replacement
• Infection caused by growth of pathogen
• Incubation from 12 hr to 2 wk
• Intoxication caused by ingestion of toxin
• Symptoms appear 1-48 hr after ingestion
2008
Staphylococcal Food Poisoning
• Staphylococcus
aureus
enterotoxin is a
superantigen
2008
Figure 25.6
Shigellosis
• Shigella spp.
producing Shiga
toxin
• Shiga toxin causes
inflammation and
bleeding
2008
Figure 25.8
Salmonellosis
• Salmonella enterica
serovars such as S.
enterica Typhimurium
• Mortality (<1%) due to
septic shock caused by
endotoxin
2008
Figure 25.9
Salmonellosis and Typhoid Fever Incidence
2008
Figure 25.10
Typhoid Fever
• Salmonella enterica Typhi
• Bacteria spread throughout body in phagocytes
• 1-3% recovered patients become carriers, harboring
Salmonella in their gallbladder
2008
Cholera
• Vibrio cholerae serotypes that produce cholera toxin
• Toxin causes host cells to secrete Cl–, HCO–, and
water
2008
Figure 25.12
Noncholera Vibrios
• Usually from contaminated crustaceans or mollusks
• V. cholerae serotypes other than O:1, O:139, and
eltor
• V. parahaemolyticus
• V. vulnificus
2008
Escherichia coli Gastroenteritis
• Occurs as traveler's diarrhea and epidemic diarrhea in
nurseries
• 50% of feedlot cattle may have enterohemorrhagic
strains in their intestines
• Enterohemorrhagic strains such as E. coli O157:H7
produce Shiga toxin
• O = cell wall antigen
• H = flagellar antigen
2008
Campylobacter Gastroenteritis
• Campylobacter jejuni
• Usually transmitted in cow's milk
2008
Helicobacter Peptic ulcer disease
• Treated with antibiotics
• H. pylori causes
stomach cancer
2008

Yersinia Gastroenteritis
• Y. enterocolitica and Y. pseudotuberculosis
• Can reproduce at 4°C
• Usually transmitted in meat and milk
2008
Clostridium perfringens Gastroenteritis
• Grow in intestinal tract producing exotoxin
2008
Bacillus cereus Gastroenteritis
• Ingestion of bacterial exotoxin produces mild symptoms
2008
Mumps
• Mumps virus
• Enters through
respiratory tract
• Infects parotid
glands
• Prevented with
MMR vaccine
2008
Figure 25.14
Hepatitis
• Inflammation of the liver
• Hepatitis may result from drug or chemical toxicity, EB
virus, CMV, or the Hepatitis viruses

Viral Gastroenteritis
• Rotavirus
• 3 million cases annually
• 1-2 day incubation, 1
week illness
• Norovirus
• 50% of U.S. adults have
antibodies
• 1-2 day incubation. 1-3
day illness
• Treated with rehydration
2008

Mycotoxins
• Mycotoxins are produced by some fungi:
• Claviceps purpurea
• Grows on grains
• Produces ergot
• Toxin restricts blood flow to limbs; causes
hallucination
• Aspergillus flavus
• Grows on grains
• Produces aflatoxin
• Toxin causes liver damage; liver cancer
2008
Giardiasis
• Giardia lamblia
• Transmitted by
contaminated water
• Diagnosed by
microscopic
examination of
stool for ova and
trophozoite
• Treated with
metronidazole
2008
Figure 25.18
Cryptosporidiosis
• Cryptosporidium
parvum
• Transmitted by oocysts
in contaminated water
• Diagnosed by acid-fast
staining of stool or
presence of antibodies
by FA or ELISA
• Treated with oral
rehydration
2008
Figure 25.19
Cyclospora Diarrheal Infection
• Cyclospora cayetanensis
• Transmitted by oocysts in contaminated water
• Diagnosed by microscopic examination for oocysts
• Treated with trimethoprim and sulfamethoxazole
2008
Amoebic Dysentery
• Entamoeba histolytica
• Amoeba feeds on RBCs and GI tract tissues
• Diagnosis by observing trophozoites in feces
• Treated with metronidazole

Tapeworms
• Taenia spp.
• Transmitted as cysticerci
in undercooked meat
• Cysticerci may develop in
humans
• Diagnosed by observing
proglottids and eggs in
feces
• Treatment with
praziquantel
• Neurocysticercosis may
require surgery

• Definitive host:
Dogs, wolves
• Intermediate host:
Sheep and other
herbivores;
Humans
• Transmitted by
ingesting E.
granulosis eggs
• Treatment is
surgical

Garbage,
including
undercooked

1 Adult Trichinella spiralis develop,
invade intestinal wall of pig, and
produce larvae that invade muscles.

spiralis larvae encysted

other animals
are infected by
eating infected
meat that has
been dumped.

undercooked
pork containing
cysts.

walls are removed, and

develop. Adults
