===Classification Based Upon Infectious Microorganism===
Infectious disease are caused by pathogenic microorganisms. These disease can be categorized into 4 main categories:
* Bacterial infections
* Viral infecions
* Fungal infections
* Parasitic infections
 
==== Bacterial infections ====
Bacterial infections can be classified based on their cellular features and specificities including:
* Cellular wall thickness: Gram staining mathod
** Gram positive bacteria
** Gram negative bacteria
* Microscopic shape
** Bacillus shaped bacteria
** Branchig shaped bacteria
** Coccus shaped bacteria
** Coma shaped bacteria
* Use an O2-dependent system to generate ATP
** Aerobics
** Anaerobics
* Oxidative damage susceptibility=Catalase enzyme
** Catalase positive bacteria
** Catalase negative bacteria
* Oxidase containing method
** Oxidase positive bacteria
** Oxidase negative bacteria
* Lactose fermenting method
** Lactose fermenting bacteria
** Non-lactose fermenting bacteria
* Coagulase containing method
** Coagulase positive bacteria
** Coagulase negative bacteria
Viral classification:
* Genetic material
** DNA virus
** RNA virus
* Number of genetic copies in the virus
** Single stranded genome
** Double stranded genome
RNA viruses themselves can be categorized based on their ability to use host cell polymerizes or need to bring their own polymerizes with themselves into 2 categories:
* Positive stranded viruses
* Negative stranded viruses

Each one of these pathological infections then can be categorized based on different methods:
* Bacterial classification based on:
** Gram staining mathod
*** Gram positive bacteria
*** Gram negative bacteria
** Oxidase containing method
*** Oxidase positive bacteria
*** Oxidase negative bacteria
** Lactose fermenting method
*** Lactose fermenting bacteria
*** Non-lactose fermenting bacteria

*** Coagulase positive bacteria
*** Coagulase negative bacteria


* Viral classification:
** Genetic material
*** DNA virus
*** RNA virus
** Number of genetic copies in the virus
*** Single stranded genome
*** Double stranded genome
RNA viruses themselves can be categorized based on their ability to use host cell polymerizes or need to bring their own polymerizes with themselves into 2 categories:
* Positive stranded viruses
* Negative stranded viruses

Overview

Among the almost infinite varieties of microorganisms, relatively few cause disease in otherwise healthy individuals.[1] Infectious disease results from the interplay between those few pathogens and the defenses of the hosts they infect. The appearance and severity of disease resulting from any pathogen depends upon the ability of that pathogen to damage the host as well as the ability of the host to resist the pathogen. Infectious microorganisms, or microbes, are therefore classified as either primary pathogens or as opportunistic pathogens according to the status of host defenses.

Classification

Infectious disease are caused by pathogenic microorganisms. These disease can be categorized into 4 main categories:

  • Bacterial infections
  • Viral infecions
  • Fungal infections
  • Parasitic infections

Bacterial infections

Bacterial infections can be classified based on their cellular features and specificities including:

  • Cellular wall thickness: Gram staining mathod
    • Gram positive bacteria
    • Gram negative bacteria
  • Microscopic shape
    • Bacillus shaped bacteria
    • Branchig shaped bacteria
    • Coccus shaped bacteria
    • Coma shaped bacteria
  • Use an O2-dependent system to generate ATP
    • Aerobics
    • Anaerobics
  • Oxidative damage susceptibility=Catalase enzyme
    • Catalase positive bacteria
    • Catalase negative bacteria
  • Oxidase containing method
    • Oxidase positive bacteria
    • Oxidase negative bacteria
  • Lactose fermenting method
    • Lactose fermenting bacteria
    • Non-lactose fermenting bacteria
  • Coagulase containing method
    • Coagulase positive bacteria
    • Coagulase negative bacteria

Viral classification:

  • Genetic material
    • DNA virus
    • RNA virus
  • Number of genetic copies in the virus
    • Single stranded genome
    • Double stranded genome

RNA viruses themselves can be categorized based on their ability to use host cell polymerizes or need to bring their own polymerizes with themselves into 2 categories:

  • Positive stranded viruses
  • Negative stranded viruses
