MICROBIOLOGY Nur Hidayat http://nurhidayat.lecture.ub.ac.id
2
Microbiology The branch of biology concerned with the study of microorganisms and their activities
3
Microorganisms can be: unicellularmulticellularacellular –viruses –viroids –prions-proteinaceous infectious particle
4
Occurrence of Microorganisms air we breathe food we eat on the human body –Only 1 in 10 cells of the body is human, the rest are microbial –A square centimeter of skin holds about 100,000 microbes –Humans are free of microbes until they pass through the birth canal environments –extreme
5
Activities of microorganisms Destructive –Disease-EIDs (emerging infectious diseases) –Food spoilage –Eutrophication
6
Beneficial Activities –Foods - SCP (single cell protein) –C, N, S, P cycles –Decomposition –Genetic engineering (recombinant DNA technology) –Bioremediation
7
Bioremediation - use of microbes to remove an environmental pollutant Eutrophication - the nutrient enrichment of large aquatic habitats caused directly or indirectly by human activities
8
Haeckel’s 3 Kingdoms PlantAnimalProtista
9
Eucaryotes vs Procaryotes
10
Eucaryotes True nucleus –nuclear membrane –more than 1 chromosome –chromosome replicated by mitosis –membrane-bound organelles ex. algae, fungi, protozoa, plants, animals
11
Eucaryotic Cell
12
Procaryotes Nuclear area (nucleoid) –no nuclear membrane –1 chromosome –no mitosis –ribosomes are the only membrane- bound organelles ex. bacteria (rickettsia, blue-green algae), archaea
13
Procaryotic Cell
14
Major Groups of Microorganisms AlgaeFungiProtozoaBacteriaArchaeaViruses
15
Description of Each Eucaryotes or procaryotes? Unicellular, multicellular or acellular? Importance Field of study
16
Algae Eucaryotes Unicellular & Multicellular ProducersPhycology
17
Unicellular Alga
18
Multicellular Alga Kelp
19
Fungi Eucaryotes Multicellular except yeasts DecomposersMycology
20
Multicellular Fungi Amanita muscaria
21
Unicellular Fungi
22
Protozoa EucaryotesUnicellular Free-living or parasitic Protozoology and Parasitology –protozoology - study of protozoa –parasitology - study of pathogenic protozoa & multicellular parasites (worms)
23
Protozoa classified by means of motility Amoeba - pseudopods ex. Entamoeba histolytica - amebic dysentery Flagellates - flagella ex. Giardia lamblia - giardiasis Ciliates - cilia ex. Paramecium Sporozoa - nonmotile ex. Toxoplasma gondii - toxoplasmosis ex. Plasmodium - malaria
24
Amoebas
25
Amoeba Entamoeba histolytica Amebic dysentery
26
Flagellate Giardia lamblia Giardiasis
27
Ciliate Balantidium coli
28
Sporozoa At least one million deaths per year worldwide http://www.cdc.gov/Malaria/impact/index.htm
29
Sporozoa Toxoplasma gondii Toxoplasmosis http://www.cdc.gov/toxoplasmosis/epi.html
30
Bacteria ProcaryotesUnicellular Photosynthesis, decomposition, parasites, biogeochemical cycles Bacteriology
31
Gram Positive Staphylococcus
32
Gram Negative Escherichia coli
33
ArchaeaProcaryotesUnicellular Lack typical bacterial cell wall Live in extreme environments –methanogens - produce methane –extreme thermophiles –extreme halophiles Importance - geochemical cycles Bacteriology
34
Rickettsia ProcaryotesUnicellular Obligate intracellular parasites Transmitted by insects & ticks Transmitted by insects & ticks ex. Rickettsia rickettsii - Rocky Mtn. Spotted fever Bacteriology
35
Viruses Composed of nucleic acid + protein coat Obligate intracellular parasites LatencyVirology
36
Adenovirus
37
Bacteriophage
38
Immunology The study of the resistance of the living body to disease producing organisms and the reactions of living tissues to foreign substances Resistance to disease Vaccines Allergies Transplantation
