Koch |
Credited with developing the use of solid culture techniques |
|
Koch's Postulate |
1. Pathogen should be in all sick subjects (Not in healthy) 2. Needs to be able to grow in pure culture 3. Put into heathy animal 4. Healthy must get sick and culture blood to grow same pathogen |

|
ATP |
Adenosintriphosphate |
|
Substrate-level phosphorylation |
Takes phosphate ion from one compound and transfers it to an ADP molecule to make an ATP |
|
Glycolysis |
First stage of celluar resporation Splitting of sugar. Glucose to 2 pyravate and 2 ATP. |
|
NADH |
cofactor used to pick up e- |
|
Stages of celluar respiration |
1.Glycolysis (Glucose to 2 pyruvate and 2 ATP) 2. 2 pyruvate to 2 AcetylCoA/ NAD to NADH 3. Citric Acid Cycle (AceylCoA to ATP) 4. Electron Transport System/Ocidative Phosphoylation |
|
ATP formed during the citric acid cycle forms through |
substrate-level phosphorylation |
|
ATP formed during glycolysis forms through |
substrate-level phosphorylation |
|
Explain Electron Transport System |
E- comes from reduced cofactors. Chain of molcules that pass e- due to proton gradient. In arobic respiration O2 picks up the final e-.
Proton gradient formed by proton pump pumping out H+. Creates engerized memebrane.
Protons flowing through create ATP |
|
Fermentation |
Creates ATP without need for O2. In humans produce Lactic acid to get rid of cofactors. In bacteria something else. |
|
Where does celluar repiration take place? |
Euk-Mitchondira Prok- plasma membrane |
|
Binary Fission |
Basic asexual replication. One cell becoming two. Called doubling time (aka generation time) |
|
Doubleing time |
Original # of cells * 2^n |
|
Growth curves for bacteria |
1. Lag 2. Log (doubling time) 3. Static (waste build up, nutrients) 4. Death |
|
Cardinal temperatures |
range of temperatures a bacteria could survive |
|
Thermophiles |
Survive in high temps Have heat shock proteins Membranes packed more tightly (sat fats) |
|
Psychrophiles |
Survive in low temps Membranes have more unsat fats in phosphlids |
|
Alkaniphile |
Can survive in high pH Have to worry about proton gradient Have a sodium pump to pick up OH- Or use something other than protons |
|
Halophiles |
Can survive in high salt increase intake or synthesis of compatible solutes |
|
