Introduction to microbiology. Morphology of microorganisms Vinnitsa National Pirogov Memorial Medical University/ Department of microbiology
2
Microbiology is a great complex of biological sciences about microorganisms Branches of microbiology Basic or general microbiology Industrial microbiology and biotechnology Pharmaceutical microbiology Agricultural microbiology Veterinary microbiology Sanitary microbiology (microbiology of food, water, soil and air) Medical microbiology
3
Branches of medical microbiology Bacteriology Mycology Virology Protozoology
4
Medical microbiology Infectious microbiology Clinical microbiology Immunology
5
Taxonomy of microorganisms Classification Nomenclature (binominal system ) Systematic
6
Ranks of hierarchical arrangement Kingdom Division Class Order Family Tribe Genus Species
7
Main methods of classification Molecular or geneticsPhenotypic classification
8
Intraspecies classification Biotype Serotype Phagotype
9
Present classification of microorganisms Cellular microorganisms non-cellular microorganisms Superkingdom Eucaryotae Procaryotae Kingdom Animalia Fungi Eubacteriae Protozoa Kingdom Vira Canonical viruses Non-canonical viruses
10
Methods of morphology investigation Light microscopy : Immersion microscopy Dark-field microscopy Phase-contrast microscopy Electron microscopy Luminescent microscopy
11
Main morphological signs of micro- organisms Shape Size Cell arrangement Tinctorial properties Structure: Capsule Structure of cell wall Flagella Endospores
12
Cocci. Micrococci Diplococci Tetracocci Streptococci Sarcinae Staphylococci
13
Rod-shaped forms Bacteria Bacilli Clostridia
14
Spiral-shaped bacteria. Vibrio Spirilla Spirochaetes Thread-shaped bacteria
15
Main differences of the cell structure Type of cellprocaryoteseucaryotes size1-10 µm10-100 µm genom exhibited Nucleoid is not separeted from cytoplasm 1 chromosome (circular) Nucleus Have a nuclear membrane A few chromosomes (linear) Mitochondriaabsentpresent Apparatus Golgiabsentpresent Endoplasmatic reticulum absentpresent ribosomeWithin cytoplasm 70S (50S+30S) into ЕPR 80S (60S+40S) Cell wallpeptidoglycanecellulose endospores +—
16
Structure of the bacteria Cell envelope: - capsule - Cell wall - Cytoplasmic membrane Outside appendages: - flagella - Pili or fimbria Inside structure: - cytoplasm - nucleoid - ribosomes - mesosomes - Intracellular inclusion
17
Features of the structure Gram- positive cell wall
18
Feature of the structure Gram- negative cell envelope
19
Flagella
20
Motile bacteria may be divided into: 1.Creeping 2.Swimming (1) monotrichous, (2) amphitrichous, (3) lophotrichous, (4) peritrichous
22
Pili or fimbriae 1. Common-pili 2. F – pili or sex-pili
23
Methods for flagella revealing Direct methods (microscopy) Indirect methods wet-mount hanging-drop techniques
24
Intracytoplasmatic inclusions. Volutin granules
25
Endospores Endospores
27
Historical development of microbiology Period before microorganisms were seen Micrographic period (from the middle of 17th century to the middle of 18th century ; A.van Leeuwenhoek ) Physiological period (19th century: L. Pasteur, R. Koch) Immunological period (first part of 20th century: G.Bordet, I.I.Metchnikoff, P.Ehrlich, D.I.Ivanowsky): development of immunology and the start of development of the virology) Modern (now-day) period (development of molecular immunology, genetic engineering, immunochemistry, microbial genetics and other parts of microbiology)
28
Antony van Leeuwenhoek (1632-1723) He was the first person who observed and described microorganisms (he named their as “animalcules”) He constructed first microscope with magnification about 50 to 300 times
29
Louis Pasteur (1822-1895) He established that fermentation was the result of microbial activity He introduced techniques of sterilization and made steam sterilizer, hot air oven, and autoclave He showed that microorganisms do not arise by spontaneous generation He elaborated methods of pathogenic microorganisms attenuation He developed rabies vaccine and anthrax one
30
Robert Koch (1843-1910) He elaborated methods of staining and cultivation of microorganisms He discovered causative agents of anthrax (1877), cholera (1883) and tubercle bacillus (1882) He proposed techniques for pure culture isolation He elaborated criteria for proving relationship between a microorganism and a specific diseases (Koch's postulates) The microorganism must be present in every case of the disease but absent in healthy organism The suspected microorganism must be isolated and grown in a pure culture The same disease must result when the isolated microorganism is inoculated into a healthy host The same microorganism must be isolated again from the diseased host
