American Society of Microbiology ABMM ABMM Prüfungsfragen mit Lösungen
1. Microscopic examination of a potassium hydroxide (KOH) preparation of skin scrapings from a patient with tinea versicolor typically reveals:
A) Cigar-shaped yeast cells
B) Septate hyphae and arthroconidia
C) Short, unbranched hyphae and globose yeast cells in clusters ("spaghetti and meatballs")
D) Broad, aseptate hyphae with sporangiophores
2. Acyclovir is a commonly used antiviral agent effective against Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) and Varicella- Zoster Virus (VZV). Its selective toxicity relies on which initial step for activation within infected cells?
A) Phosphorylation by host cell mitochondrial kinases
B) Direct inhibition of viral RNA polymerase activity
C) Blocking viral entry through competitive inhibition of cellular receptors
D) Monophosphorylation primarily by viral thymidine kinase
3. A patient presents with symptoms suggestive of primary syphilis. Which diagnostic test typically becomes positive earliest in the course of infection?
A) Darkfield microscopy of lesion exudate
B) Venereal Disease Research Laboratory (VDRL) test on CSF
C) Treponema pallidum particle agglutination (TP-PA)
D) Rapid Plasma Reagin (RPR)
4. A Gram-positive rod is isolated from the blood culture of a neonate with sepsis. The organism exhibits weak beta-hemolysis on sheep blood agar, is catalase-positive, hydrolyzes esculin in the presence of bile, and demonstrates characteristic "tumbling" motility in a wet mount prepared from a broth culture incubated at 25°C. Which organism is most likely?
A) Corynebacterium jeikeium
B) Bacillus anthracis
C) Listeria monocytogenes
D) Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae
5. A research laboratory is investigating the development of a broadly protective vaccine against coronaviruses.
They are focusing on conserved epitopes in the spike (S) protein that are accessible to neutralizing antibodies across different beta-coronaviruses. Which region of the S protein is considered a promising target for such a vaccine?
A) The S1 subunit, which is primarily responsible for host cell receptor binding.
B) The S2 subunit, which is more conserved and mediates membrane fusion.
C) The receptor-binding domain (RBD), which exhibits high sequence variability.
D) The N-terminal domain (NTD) of the S protein.
