Chapter 2.2, Problem 2MI
Summary Introduction
Fluorescent microscope is a kind of optical microscope, which uses phosphorescence as well as fluorescence to study the organic plus inorganic substances or samples. This microscopy excites a sample with a particular wavelength of light as well as forms an image that emits fluorescent light. Epifluorescent microscopy is the most commonly used kind of fluorescence microscopy.

Clinical application: A 44-year-old man with HIV is receiving antibiotics through a intravenous
catheter. The antibiotics are to help treat a kidney infection. The patient develops a fever.
Subsequent cultures from the patient's blood, the needle tip, and from the insertion site all show
growth of an organism with large oval-shaped cells. The cells reproduce by budding.
(a) What is your guess about the identity of the pathogen?
(b) How do you think the antibiotics may have contributed to this outcome?
(c) What do you think the portal of entry was for this pathogen?
