QUESTION 1 [30] 1.1. Clinical laboratories routinely process specimens
containing pathogenic microorganisms that require precise identification.
Explain how you would apply immunofluorescence to identify Streptococcus
pyogenes isolated from a patient sample and explain how you would
differentiate it from other morphologically similar streptococci and
staphylococci. (10) 1.2. Explain the clinical rationale for the use of a rapid test
procedure such as the Enterotube II system for the identification of enteric
microorganisms. (10) 1.3. Your 20-year-old cousin was informed following a
physical examination that her blood test for syphilis was reactive. She

pallidum immobilization (TPI) test was negative. Explain these strange results
and the clinical status of your cousin. (10) QUESTION 2 [20] A patient was
admitted to a hospital with urinary tract infection, and antibiotic sensitive
Klebsiella pneumoniae were identified. During hospitalization the patient
became nonresponsive to antibiotic therapy, and the new isolates of K.
pneumoniae were now resistant to ampicillin and kanamycin. Stool cultures of
all patients in the ward revealed that several of them carried E. coli which was
also resistant to ampicillin and kanamycin. You are in charge of determining if
K. pneumoniae somehow acquired an R-plasmid from E. coli. Describe the
molecular tools that one would use to prove the plasmid transfer hypothesis.
QUESTION 3 [15] People with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)
are vulnerable to toxoplasmosis caused by the protozoan Toxoplasma gondii,
