Resumo de Recurso
Microbiology
BACTERIA
Prokaryotes with peptidoglycan which composes Gram-positive cell walls
Anaerobic or aerobic
1 to 10um
Chromosomes pulled apart by attachments to inner membrane
External cell wall
RNA and protein synthesized in the single compartment
No organelles
No endo or exo cytosis
Rods or cocci
BACTERIAL SPORE FORMATION
Gram-positive bateria in rod shape can produce spores
Spores are highly resistant to chemicals, desiccation and nutrient depletion
Heat resistant so can survive pasteurisation/cooking
Dormant but germinate when the environment is optimal
BACTERIA ASSOCIATED WITH FOOD
Pathogenic bacteria: food poisoning
Gram negative rods (Enterobacteriaceae non-spore forming rods) E.G. E coli.
Gram negative rods (Pseudomonads)
Gram positive rods (Clostridia)
Cultured bacteria
Gram positive rods (Lactobactilli - found in yoghurt)
BACTERIAL STRUCTURE AND THE GRAM STAIN
Three types of cell wall layers; Gram positive, Gram negative and Acid fast
GRAM STAIN
1. Add bacteria to microscope slide
2. Set and stain with Crystal Violet (only retained in Gram positive cell walls
3. Wash and stain Iodine
4. Wash and destain with Ethanol
5. Counterstain with Safranin
BINARY FISSION
Asexual
Genomic DNA replicates
Cell doubles its mass
In ideal growth conditions E. coli is capable of undergoing one cell cycle every 20 minutes
CONTROLLING PATHOGENIC BACTERIA
Sterilisation
Complete destruction/elimination of all viable organisms
E.G. spores, sterile objects, heat, radiation, chemicals and physical removal of cells
Disinfection
Kills, inhibits or removes organisms that may cause disease
Vegetative microorganisms but not spores
Inanimate objects (not safe for living tissues)
Decontamination with biocides
Kills, inhibits or removes organisms that may cause disease
Vegetative microorganisms and potentially spores
Very strong
Used for inanimate objects, healthcare
EUKARYA
10 to 100um
Anaerobic or aerobic
Internal cytoskeleton
Long linear DNA
RNA synthesized and processed in nucleus; proteins synthesized in cytoplasm
Endo and exo cytosis
Chromosomes pulled apart by attachments to cytoskeletal components
FUNGI
Three groups: Moulds, Yeasts and Mushrooms
Cell walls made of chitin
Fungal cell walls made of hyphae
Together these make a mycelium
Form branches
Can reproduce sexually or asexually- fungal spores
Yeast 'bud'
ARCHAEA
Prokaryotes without peptidoglycan
VIRUSES
Contains either RNA or DNA and replicates in cells
Has an extracellular state
PRIONS
Entirely protein
No nucleic acids
Infectious
Causes disease in animals
Currently not found in plants
MICROBIAL NUTRITION
AUTOTROPHS
Capable of synthesising complex organic molecules from a simple non-organic molecules
HETEROTROPHS
Use organic molecules such as carbon
GROWING MICROBES IN THE LAB
OPTIMAL CONDITIONS
Nutrient source
Optimal temperature
Water availability
pH
Gaseous atmosphere
No antimicrobials (agent that kills microorganisms or stops their growth)
CULTURE
1. Nutrient source
Carbohydrate - sugars
Proteins/amino acids - meat/yeast extracts
Minerals/Vitamins
2. Broth culture
Test tubes/bottles
3. Solid media
Test tubes/bottles
Culture media can be formulated to:
Meet nutritional requirements of certain bacteria
Selectively grow bacteria, inhibit others
Be diagnostic
MICROBES
MICROBIAL GROWTH IN LIQUID (broth)
When bacteria grow in a liquid broth the normally follow a standard pattern of growth
MICROBES AND TEMPERATURE
High temperatures cause:
Membrane disruption
Protein denaturation
For every 10C increase in temperature the metabolic rate and growth rates approximately double
Low temperatures cause:
Adaptations to maintain membrane fluidity
Slow metabolic processes
Slow growth rates
