Bacteria - what comes to mind? Diseases Infections Epidemics Food Spoilage Only 1% of all known bacteria cause human
diseases About 4% of all known bacteria cause plant
diseases 95% of known bacteria are non-pathogens

Microbes Benefit Humans
1.Bacteria are primary decomposers - recycle nutrients back into the environment (sewage treatment plants)
2. Microbes produce various food products • cheese, pickles, sauerkraut, green olives• yogurt, soy sauce, vinegar, bread• Beer, Wine, Alcohol
![Page 12: Microbial World and You Chapter 1 What is Microbiology? w Micro - too small to be seen with the naked eye w Bio - life w ology - study of](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d0a5503460f949dc26f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

4. Bacteria synthesize chemicals that our body needs, but cannot synthesize
Example: E. coli• B vitamins - for metabolism• Vitamin K - blood clotting
Escherichia coli• Dr. Escherich• Colon (intestine)

History of the Study of Microorganisms 1665 Robert Hooke
• “little boxes” - “cells”• Cell Theory - all living things are made up of
cells
![Page 22: Microbial World and You Chapter 1 What is Microbiology? w Micro - too small to be seen with the naked eye w Bio - life w ology - study of](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d0a5503460f949dc26f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Anton van Leeuwenhoek 1674
- 1st person to actually see living microorganisms
“wee animalcules”
![Page 23: Microbial World and You Chapter 1 What is Microbiology? w Micro - too small to be seen with the naked eye w Bio - life w ology - study of](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d0a5503460f949dc26f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Spontaneous Generation
Theory that life just “spontaneously” developed from non-living matter
Example:• toads, snakes and mice - moist soil• flies and maggots - manure and decaying flesh
![Page 24: Microbial World and You Chapter 1 What is Microbiology? w Micro - too small to be seen with the naked eye w Bio - life w ology - study of](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d0a5503460f949dc26f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Experiments to disprove Spontaneous Generation Francesco Redi 1668
Rudolph Virchow 1858• Theory of Biogenesis
• Cells can only arise from preexisting cells
Louis Pasteur 1861
![Page 25: Microbial World and You Chapter 1 What is Microbiology? w Micro - too small to be seen with the naked eye w Bio - life w ology - study of](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d0a5503460f949dc26f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Pasteur designed special “swan-necked flasks” with a boiled meat infusion
Shape of flask allowed air in (vital force) but trapped dust particles which may contain microbes
![Page 26: Microbial World and You Chapter 1 What is Microbiology? w Micro - too small to be seen with the naked eye w Bio - life w ology - study of](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d0a5503460f949dc26f/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Germ Theory of Disease Hard for people to believe that diseases
were caused by tiny invisible “wee animalcules”
Diseases, they thought, were caused by:• demons• witchcraft• bad luck• the wrath of God• curses• evil spirits
![Page 27: Microbial World and You Chapter 1 What is Microbiology? w Micro - too small to be seen with the naked eye w Bio - life w ology - study of](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d0a5503460f949dc26f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Robert Koch - 1st to prove that bacteria actually caused diseases 1876 Microbial Etiology of Infectious Disease
• etiology - the cause of a disease
Established “scientific rules” to show a cause and effect relationship between a microbe and a disease• Koch’s Postulates
![Page 28: Microbial World and You Chapter 1 What is Microbiology? w Micro - too small to be seen with the naked eye w Bio - life w ology - study of](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d0a5503460f949dc26f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Koch’s Postulates 1. The same organisms must be found in all
cases of a given disease. 2. The organism must be isolated and
grown in pure culture. 3. The isolated organism must reproduce
the same disease when inoculated into a healthy susceptible animal.
4. The original organism must again be isolated from the experimentally infected animal.
![Page 29: Microbial World and You Chapter 1 What is Microbiology? w Micro - too small to be seen with the naked eye w Bio - life w ology - study of](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d0a5503460f949dc26f/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Exceptions to Koch’s Postulates
1. Some organisms have never been grown in pure culture on artificial media
Treponema pallidum - Syphilis

Mycobacterium leprae Leprosy
Never been grown in pure culture on artificial media
Abdominal cavity of the Seven Banded Armadillo
Exceptions to Koch’s Postulates

Exceptions to Koch’s Postulates
In exclusively human diseases, it is not morally acceptable to inoculate a deadly pathogen into a “human guinea pig”
HIV
![Page 32: Microbial World and You Chapter 1 What is Microbiology? w Micro - too small to be seen with the naked eye w Bio - life w ology - study of](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d0a5503460f949dc26f/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Koch established the Microbial Etiology of 3 important diseases of his day
1. Cholera (fecal-oral disease)• Vibrio cholerae
2. Tuberculosis (pulmonary infection)• Mycobacterium tuberculosis
3. Anthrax (sheep and cattle)• Bacillus anthracis
![Page 33: Microbial World and You Chapter 1 What is Microbiology? w Micro - too small to be seen with the naked eye w Bio - life w ology - study of](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d0a5503460f949dc26f/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Anthrax Bacillus anthracis
• Gram (+), non-motile, aerobic, spore forming rod
• Streptobacilli with central spores
• Livestock • Sheep, cattle, goats
• Humans• Handle hides, wool, goat hair, handicrafts from the Middle
East made from animal products
![Page 34: Microbial World and You Chapter 1 What is Microbiology? w Micro - too small to be seen with the naked eye w Bio - life w ology - study of](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d0a5503460f949dc26f/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
3 Forms of Human Anthrax
1. Cutaneous Anthrax• Enters thru cut or
abrasion
• Results in painless ulcer (1-3 cm) with black (necrotic) center
• About 20% mortality rate in untreated cases
![Page 35: Microbial World and You Chapter 1 What is Microbiology? w Micro - too small to be seen with the naked eye w Bio - life w ology - study of](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d0a5503460f949dc26f/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
2. Gastrointestinal Anthrax• Contaminated meat
• Abdominal pain, fever, vomiting blood, severe diarrhea
• 25% to 60% mortality rate
![Page 36: Microbial World and You Chapter 1 What is Microbiology? w Micro - too small to be seen with the naked eye w Bio - life w ology - study of](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d0a5503460f949dc26f/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
3. Inhalation Anthrax• Initial symptoms
resemble common cold
• Progress to severe breathing problems and shock
• Usually results in death 1-2 days after onset of acute symptoms
• Mortality rate 99% in untreated cases
• Treatment usually not effective after symptoms are present
![Page 37: Microbial World and You Chapter 1 What is Microbiology? w Micro - too small to be seen with the naked eye w Bio - life w ology - study of](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d0a5503460f949dc26f/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Anthrax as a Biological Weapon Deadly if not treated early Spores can be produced in large quantities using basic
knowledge of biology Spores may remain viable for years (60 at least) Spores can be spread
• Missiles, rockets, bombs, mail, crop dusters ? No cloud or color No smell No taste Antibiotics – only effective if administered early (within
24 –48 hours)
