Anton van Leeuwenhoek (1673)Anton van Leeuwenhoek (1673)

His insatiable curiosity about the natural world and his detaileddescriptions of what he saw that made him one of the founders of Microbiology«

Leeuwenhoek¶s drawingsof bacteria.

The animalcules«.

bacteria and protozoa

He found Ä animals appearing tome ten thousand times less thanthose which maybe perceived in

the water with the naked eye³

ÄIn the said matter, there weremany very little animalcules, very prettily a-moving...More over, the

other animalcules were in suchenormous numbers, that all the

water...seemed to be alive³

Spontaneous generation (Abiogenesis)VS

Biogenesis

F rogs and worms arose spontaneously from ponds

living organisms could arise from non-living or decomposing matter.

J ohn Needham (1745) revived theory of spontaneous generation at the microorganismlevel«.cooked meat will give rise to mirobes!!!

Anti-spontaneous generation

Lazaro Spallanzi ± boiled beef extracts in a flask (1hr) then sealed it.Microbes did not grow.......

Pro-spontaneous generation

J ohn Needham ± air is needed for spontaneous generation

-a French chemist

-yeast ferment sugars to alcohol

-high or low quality wine is dependenton the type of microbe/yeast

-bacteria can oxidize the alcohol toacetic acid.

-develop pasteurization

The Link to the Germ theory of Disease

Pasteur saving the silk industry«..- proved that protozoans caused the silkworm disease- control the disease by raising caterpillars from eggs produced

by healthy moths

The Link to the Germ theory of Disease

J oseph Lister (1860)

- father of modern surgery

- introduced the use of disinfectant to clean surgicalwounds in order to control

infections in humans

Germ theory of Disease and Robert Koch

Robert Koch (1843 -1910)

- lifelong professional rival of Louis Pasteur

-a german physician

- isolated the bacterium that causes Anthrax... adisease decimating the herds of cattle and sheep in

Europe

Robert Koch and thedevelopment of Laboratory

techniques

Initially used sterile surface of cut/sliced boiled broth

Used gelatin in solidifying regular nutrient medium

Kochµs assistant suggested the use of agar

Richard Petri developed the petri dish

Tuberculosis ±Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Cholera- Vibrio choleraTyphoid fever - Salmonella typhi

Diptheria - Corynebacterium diptheriae

Tetanus - Clostridium tetani

Pasteur and the Road toVaccination

Experiment 1: Pasteur injected healthy chickens with purecultures of cholera bacteria

Experiment 2.

Chickens in experiment 1 Uninoculated chicken

Young culture of cholera bacteria

injected

Remained alive andhealthy

Chickens died

Results - chickens did not get sick

Explanation - the inoculum used was several weeks old

Pasteur called the avirulent cultures vaccine (fromlatin vacca = cow ) in recognition of the earlier work of Edward Jenner

Microbial Diversity and the Rise of GeneralMicrobial Diversity and the Rise of GeneralMicrobiologyMicrobiology

Beijerinck and Winogradsky-studied bacteria in soil and water and developed theenrichment culture technique for the isolation of representatives of various physiological groups:

The concept of enrichment culture technique

Isolated the first pure cultures of many soiland aquatic microorganisms.

- aerobic nitrogen fixing bacteria

-sulfate reducing bacteria

- root nodule bacteria

- L actobacillus species

- green algae

- basic tenets of virology

R obert Koch developed a set of postulatesto prove that a specific microorganism causesa specific disease:

8/9/2019 Micro 200 lec 2

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/micro-200-lec-2 44/46

1 . The suspected pathogenic organismshould be present in all cases of thedisease and absent from healthy animals.

2. The suspected organism should be grownin p ur e c u lt ur e ²that is, a culture

containing a single kind of microorganism.

8/9/2019 Micro 200 lec 2

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/micro-200-lec-2 45/46

3 . Cells from a pure culture of the suspectedorganism should cause disease in ahealthy animal.

4. The organism should be reisolated and

shown to be the same as the original.
