Develops pure culture technique and Koch’s postulates. Discovered causative agents of anthrax and tuberculosis and rabies vaccine. Microbes disease. |
|
|
Koch’s postulate |
the same organism is present in every case It is isolated or grown in pure culture The disease can be reproduced in healthy animals after infection of pure culture The identical pathogen is reisolated from the experimental animals (mice) |

Spallenzani |
researched theory of the spontaneous generation of microbes, proposed that microbes move through the air and that they could be killed through boiling.

Good things Bacteria does |
-maintain the nitrogen cycle -part of the food chain (both ways) -digest our food -needed for nucleic acids in our DNA -food: Beer, wine, yogurt, cheese, saurkraut, pickles, bread -bacteria replicate at a very high rate so are used for research (maybe cloning) -sewage is treated by bacteria -Aerobically, in presence of O2, break down to make water which goes into filtrate and CO2 which goes back into the atmosphere -Normal flora are bacteria that take up space.. All over and on surface -Don’t allow bad bacteria to establish, use it as protection -Eventually bacteria will be able to break down plastic. -Some bacteria can even clean up oil spills. -Break down petroleum to CO2 and water.

Bad things bacteria does |
