Microbiology - The science that studies very small living things
Usually

requires a magnification tool – the microscope
Some organisms are large though – Helminths – worms
Sub groups of Microbes we will study
Bacteria
Archaea
Fungi
Protozoans
Algae
Viruses
Multicellular animal parasites – Helminths

Historical review of the Science of Microbiology
Robert Hook – 1665

– Englishman, used a primitive compound (two magnifying lenses)
microscope, reported that life’s smallest units were little boxes – Cells, his work
started the process of the development of the Cell theory of life

Antoni Van Leeuwenhoek –1673 - probably the first person to

observe living cells with a simple microscope, amateur scientist, ground his own lenses and described what we know today as bacteria – rod shaped , spiral shaped , etc. “animalcules”

Microbiology

Francesco Redi – 1668 – opposed the prevailing theory

of Spontaneous Generation,
maggots in meat , He used covered jars to show that maggots came from flies –strong evidence against spontaneous generation
Now we teach the theory of Biogenesis – Life comes from Life
But issue of Spontaneous Generation was actively believed for many more years

Pasteur – French sceintist that dealt the death blow to

the spontaneous generation theory.
He devised the ingenious curved necked flasks that prevented contaminated air from reaching boiled beef broth – the broth remained uncontaminated even though exposed to the air
He was very lucky – no endopores present, or it would have failed
(resitant to boiling)

Microbiology

1. He developed process we call Pasteuriztion – he heated

wine to kill contaminating microbes – cured sick wine (today we heat treatment to kill pathogens in milk also)
2. He proved that fermentation was caused by a microbe – yeast
3. He developed vaccines for rabies and anthrax. Vaccines led to immunity to diseases that routinely killed many people, used to help people long before they understood how they even worked (science of Immunology)
4. He began the revolution in science that led to the Golden Age of
Microbiology (from 1857-1914)

Robert Koch - Developed Koch’s postulates – important technique for

determining the
actual microbial cause agent of a disease – more later, German, contemporary of Pasteur, several very important contributions
1. He discovered the tuberculosis bug (tubercle bacillus, Mycobacterium tuberculosis)
2. He discovered the cause of anthrax (Bacillus anthracis) – from blood of dead cattle, cultured bacteria in pure culture, injected bacteria in live cattle and they died, then again cultured the bacteria in pure culture. This led to the
establishment of a procedure for determining microbial cause of disease (see p. ____-for modern application of Koch’s postulates)

Microbiology

Koch’s and Pasteur’s work helped establish the “Germ Theory of

Disease” - that
microorganisms cause disease (in people, animals, and even plants)

Domain Archaea

Archaea are single- celled organisms that lack a membrane-bound nucleus.

- Prokaryote
Archaea can be found in environments that are too hostile for other life forms.
Слайд 18

Domain Bacteria Bacteria are single- celled organisms that lack a membrane-bound

Domain Bacteria

Bacteria are single- celled organisms that lack a membrane-bound nucleus.

(Prokaryote also)
Bacteria are found almost everywhere on the planet Earth.

Domain Eukarya The cells of all eukaryotes have a membrane-bound nucleus.

Domain Eukarya

The cells of all eukaryotes have a membrane-bound nucleus. Members

of the Domain Eukarya are further categorized into one of four Kingdoms. (know these kingdoms)
