any living things you cant see with naked eye
microbe
prokaryotic cells found in kingdom monera, in domains archea and bacteria
bacteria
noncellular entities that are made of dna and protein, must have a host. no metabolism
viruses
single celled
protozoa
molds and yeast
fungi
importance of microbes
-decomposers
-basis of food chain in aqautic environment
-micro biota
-food, alcohol production
-genetic engineering
-bioremmediation
-biocontrol
the early belief that living organsims spontaneously occured from nonliving matter
spontaneous generation
biogenesis
belief that living things arise from living cells only
produced by bacillus clostridium and are durable under adverwse conditions
endospores
light scientist, "cells"
robert hooke
examined seawater, teeth scrapings and saw moving things called them animacules
Anton van Leewonhoek
Francisco Redi
disproved s.g. EXCEPT for microbes
louis pasteur
rabies vaccine,disproved s.g
paul erhlich
created first slide for mycobacterium called acid fast stain. ALSO found drug salvarson to treat syphillus
introduced idea of agar plates. first to get a pure culture of microbes. demonstrated connection between disease and microbes
koch
hand-washing
ignaz semmelweiss
found that mosquitoes carried yellow fever
reeed
antibiotics, effects of penicilin
flemming
mass produced penicillen
Florey and Chain
dmitri iwanowski
proposed there was a microbe smaller than bacteria, TMV
micrometers
bacteria
nanometers
virus
one lens
simple microscope
image from the objective lens is magnified again by the ocular lens
compund microscope
objective lens X ocular lens
total magnification
ability of a lens to distinguish two points
resolution
shorter wavelengths provied what?
greater resolution
measure of the light bending ability of a medium
refractive index
what is used to keep light from bending
oil immersion lens
dark objects are seen against a bright background.
brightfeild illumination
light onjects are seen against a dark background
darkfeild illumination
advantages of darkfeild illumination
no stain needed
can be living
true size and shape of m.o is seen
accentuates diffraction of the light that passes through a specimen
phase contrast microscopy
-cellsstained with
flourochrome dyes
-3d image
-research bases
confocal microscopy
- cells stained with flourochrome dyes
-2 photons of red light are used
-used to study cells that are attached to a surface
two photon microscopy
measures sound waves that are reflected back from an object
scanning acoustic microscope
uses electrons instead of light
electron microscopy
ultrathin sectons of specimens
light passes through specimen, then an electromagentic lens, to a screen or film
Transmission Electron Microscopy
disadvantages of TEM
limited beam, distortion, dehydration
an electron gun produces a beam of electrons that scans the surfaceof a whole specimen
3D, no distortion
scanning electron micrscopy
advantages of a scanned probe microscope
no high energy beam,
living org from start to finish, detailed
observe processes at molecular level, 3D
atomic force microscopy
coloring microbe with a dye that emphasizes
staining
thin film of a solution of microbes on a slide
smear
in a basic dye, the chromophore is a what?
cation
in an acidic dye, the chromphore is a whaT?
anion
tend to be killed by penicillen and detergents
gram positive
are more resistant to antibiotics
gram negative
gram positive color
purple
gram negative color
red
identifies microbes in genera mycobacterioum and nocardia
acid fast stain
color of acid fast
red
color of non acid fast
blue
identifies microbes in genera mycobacterioum and nocardia
acid fast stain
color of acid fast
red
color of non acid fast
blue
