Microbiology• The study of organisms too small to be
seen without magnification• Microorganisms include:
– bacteria– viruses– fungi– protozoa – helminths (worms) – algae

Characteristics of Microbes• Procaryotes and eukaryotes
– procaryote – microscopic, unicellular organisms, lack nuclei and membrane-bound organelles
– eucaryote – unicellular (microscopic) and multicellular, nucleus and membrane-bound organelles
• Viruses – acellular, parasitic particles composed of a
nucleic acid and protein

Microbial Dimensions
• Procaryotes are measured in micrometers.
• Viruses in nanometers
• Helminths are measured in millimeters.

Historical Foundations of Microbiology
• 300 years of contributions by many
• Prominent discoveries include:– microscopy– scientific method– development of medical microbiology – microbiology techniques

up to 300X

Spontaneous Generation
Early belief that some forms of life could arise from vital forces present in nonliving or decomposing matter (flies from manure, etc)
![Page 15: Foundations in Microbiology Sixth Edition Lecture 1: The Main Themes of Microbiology Department of Medical Microbiology, School of Medicine Ilam University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649e9c5503460f94b9d51e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Discovery of Spores and Sterilization
• John Tyndall and Ferdinand Cohn each demonstrated the presence of heat resistant forms of some microbes.– Cohn determined these forms to be
endospores.
• Sterility requires the elimination of all life forms including endospores and viruses.

Development of Aseptic Techniques
• Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes – observed that mothers of home births had fewer infections than those who gave birth in hospital
• Dr. Ignaz Semmelweis – correlated infections with physicians coming directly from autopsy room to maternity ward
• Nosocomial Infections - infections acquired during stay in hospitals
![Page 17: Foundations in Microbiology Sixth Edition Lecture 1: The Main Themes of Microbiology Department of Medical Microbiology, School of Medicine Ilam University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649e9c5503460f94b9d51e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

• Joseph Lister – introduced aseptic techniques reducing microbes in medical settings to prevent infections– involved disinfection of hands using
chemicals prior to surgery– use of heat for sterilization

Pathogens and Germ Theory of Disease
• Many diseases are caused by the growth of microbes in the body and not by sins, bad character, or poverty, etc.
• Two major contributors:
Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch
![Page 19: Foundations in Microbiology Sixth Edition Lecture 1: The Main Themes of Microbiology Department of Medical Microbiology, School of Medicine Ilam University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649e9c5503460f94b9d51e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Louis Pasteur (1822-1895)
• Showed microbes caused fermentation and spoilage
• Disproved spontaneous generation of microorganisms
• Developed pasteurization• Demonstrated what is now
known as Germ Theory of Disease
• Developed a rabies vaccine

Robert Koch (1843-1910)
• Established Koch’s postulates - a sequence of experimental steps that verified the germ theory
• Identified cause of anthrax, TB, and cholera
• Developed pure culture methods

Taxonomy: Organizing, Classifying and Naming Living
Things• Formal system originated by Carl von Linné
(1701-1778) • Concerned with:
– classification – orderly arrangement of organisms into groups
– nomenclature – assigning names– identification – discovering and recording traits of
organisms for placement into taxonomic schemes
![Page 22: Foundations in Microbiology Sixth Edition Lecture 1: The Main Themes of Microbiology Department of Medical Microbiology, School of Medicine Ilam University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649e9c5503460f94b9d51e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Levels of Classification• Domain - Archaea, Bacteria & Eukarya• Kingdom• Phylum or Division• Class • Order• Family• Genus• species
![Page 23: Foundations in Microbiology Sixth Edition Lecture 1: The Main Themes of Microbiology Department of Medical Microbiology, School of Medicine Ilam University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649e9c5503460f94b9d51e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
23
Naming Micoorganisms
• Binomial (scientific) nomenclature • Gives each microbe 2 names:
– Genus - noun, always capitalized– species - adjective, lowercase
• Both italicized or underlined– Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus)– Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis)– Escherichia coli (E. coli)
![Page 24: Foundations in Microbiology Sixth Edition Lecture 1: The Main Themes of Microbiology Department of Medical Microbiology, School of Medicine Ilam University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649e9c5503460f94b9d51e/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

3 Domains
• Bacteria - true bacteria, peptidoglycan
• Archaea - odd bacteria that live in extreme environments, high salt, heat, etc.
• Eukarya- have a nucleus and organelles
