Study Notes
Microbiology Study Notes
- Microbiology is the study of microscopic organisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites.
- The Pasteur period in microbiology development spanned the latter half of the 19th century and encompassed the beginning of the 20th century.
- Staining microbes with aniline dyes is a crucial technique that helps study microbial morphology and internal structure. A key method for this task is Gram staining.
- Gram staining depends on the structure of the bacterial cell wall.
- Endospore formation is influenced by unfavorable environmental conditions like low temperatures, drying, and ingestion by humans or animals.
- Acid resistance in microorganisms is linked to the presence of mycolic acid.
