The  one-­celled  microorganisms  also known  as  germs  or  microbes  are:

Bacteria

Parasites  are  types  of:

pathogenic  bacteria

Bacteria  that  cause  disease  are  called:

pathogenic

Disease  in  plant  or  animal  tissue  is  caused by:

nonpathogenic  bacteria

Technical  term  for  bacteria  that  live  on dead  matter  is:

saprophytes

The  spirilla  bacteria  Trepnema  pallida causes:

syphilis

The  type  of  bacteria  called  cocci  have  a:

round  shape

The  type  of  bacteria  that  has  a  rod  shape  is called:

bacilli

Pus-­forming  bacteria  that  cause  strep throat  and  blood  poisoning  are:

streptococci

The  bacteria  with  a  corkscrew  or  spiral shape  are:

spirilla

In  California  in  2000,  a  normally  harmless bacteria  that  cause  infections  in  over  100 pedicure  clients  was:

Mycobacterium  fortuitum  furunculosis

Cocci  rarely:

show  self-­movement

Certain  bacteria  move  about  with  the  help of  hair  like  extensions  called:

flagella

Mitosis  is  the  process  by  which  bacteria:

divide

Certain  bacteria,  during  their  inactive stage,  form  outer  coverings  called:

spores

A  disease  that  is  transmitted  from  one person  to  another  by    is  said  to  be:

communicable

A  typical  example  of  a  general  infection  is:

syphillis

A  sign  of  bacterial  infection  is:

pus

Diseases  caused  by  viruses  include:

measles  and  hepatitis

Penetrating  cells  and  becoming  part  of them  is  characteristic  of:

viruses

Hepatitis  is  caused  by  a  bloodborne  virus and  involves  inflammation  of  the:

liver

The  disease  that  breaks  down  the  body's immune  system  is  known  as:

AIDS

Acquired  Immune  Deficiency  Syndrome (AIDS)  is  caused  by:

the  HIV  virus

The  HIV  virus  is  not  transmitted:

by  kissing  or  hugging

One  way  in  which  bacteria  and  viruses  can enter  the  body  is  through:

broken  skin

Fungi,  or  vegetable  parasites,  cause contagious  diseases  such  as:

ringworm

Clients  showing  signs  of  a  contagious disease  or  condition  should  be:

referred  to  a  physician

Immunity  is  the  ability  of  the  body  to resist:

infection

Surfaces  such  as  tables,  walls,  doorknobs, or  your  hands,  no  matter  how  clean  they look,  are  very  likely:

contaminated

There  are  three  main  levels  of decontamination:

sterilization,  disinfection,  sanitation

Only  one  level  of  decontamination, sterilization,  is  capable  of  killing:

bacterial  spores

Surgeons  and  dentists  are  required  to practice  ___________with  their  tools.

sterilization

Disinfection  may  be  used  on:

nonporous  surfaces

Disinfectants  are  too  strong  to  use  on:

skin,  hair,  or  nails

Each  individual  state  and  the  _______must approve  all  disinfectants.

EPA

A  Material  Safety  Data  Sheet  on  every product  used  in  the  cosmetology  school  is required  by:

federal  law

An  MSDS  contains  important  information about  a  product,  including:

storage  requirements

The  government  agency  that  regulates  and enforces  safety  and  health  standards  in  the workplace  is:

OSHA

In  order  to  be  considered  "Formulated  for Hospitals  and  Health  Care  Facilities,"  a disinfectant  must  be  pseudomonacidal, bactericidal,  fungicidal,  and:

virucidal

An  EPA-­ed  tuberculocidal disinfectant  or  one  that  kills  the  HVB  and HIV  virus  is  required  by  OSHA  for implements  that  come  into    with:

blood  or  body  fluids

Any  item  used  to  perform  a  salon  service on  a  client  must  be  disinfected  or:

discarded

Implements  must  be  thoroughly  cleaned before  they  are:

soaked  in  disinfectant

To  be  effective  in  the  salon,  ultrasonic  bath cleaners  must  be  used  with:

an  effective  disinfectant

An  immersion  time  of  10  to  15  minutes  is sufficient  when  disinfecting  with:

quats

Phenols  in  5  percent  solution  are  safe  and extremely  effective  disinfectants  used mostly  for:

metal  implements

Alcohol  and  bleach  are:

no  longer  widely  used  as  disinfectants

For  disinfection  of  implements,  states requiring  hospital  disinfection  do  not  allow the  use  of:

alcohol

Sodium  hypochlorite  is  more  commonly known  as:

bleach

A  product  that  was  used  in  the  past  as  a disinfectant  but  is  no  longer  considered safe  for  salon  use  is:

formalin

Tongs,  gloved  hands,  or  a  draining  basket should  be  used  to  remove  implements from:

disinfectants

Proper  disinfection  procedure  includes changing  the  solution  in  a  wet  sanitizer:

once  a  day

The  most  important  rule  to   when  mixing  disinfectants  is  to  always:

follow  the  manufacturer's  instructions

Once  implements  have  been  disinfected, they  should  be  stored  in  a/an:

disinfected  and  covered  container

The  only  device  among  the  following  that can  be  used  to  disinfect  implements  is  the:

wet  sanitizer

After  each  use,  linens  and  capes  or  drapes that  come  in    with  a  client's  skin should  be  laundered  with:

bleach

Some  implements  have  parts  that  cannot  be immersed  in  liquid  but  must  still  be disinfected,  such  as:

nail  drills

An  EPA-­ed  disinfectant  with bactericidal,  fungicidal,  virucidal  (and  in some  states  tuberculocidal)  efficacy  should be  used  to  disinfect  foot  spas:
