1. Live on and in our body. 2. Can make us sick. 3. Would not be here without microbes. 4. Get rid of our wastes. 5. May clean up our messes (i.e. oil spills, ect.). 6. Make many essential elements available to living things. 7. Food source. 8. Aid in digestion. 9. Some used to make medicine (i.e. antibiotics). 10. Important for genetic engineering.

Anton van LeeuwenhoekAnton van Leeuwenhoek1632-17231632-1723

The “Father of Microbiology” First to see live bacteria and protozoa.

Microscope consisted of only one lens and was only 3-4 inches long. It required good lighting and a lot of patience.

Louis PasteurLouis Pasteur1822-18951822-1895

Discovered what occurs during alcoholic fermentation

Helped disprove spontaneous generation

Termed “aerobes” and “anaerobes”

Discovered Pasteurization Discovered many vaccines Contributed to germ theory

of disease

Germ Theory of DiseaseGerm Theory of Disease

Theory that specific microorganisms cause specific infectious diseases.

For example, the bacteria Bacillus anthracis causes anthrax.

Page 20: Microbiology Introduction and History. Microbiology  Introduction and History Beer Cheese Staphylococcal folliculitis Conjunctivitis Chicken pox.

Robert KochRobert Koch1843-19101843-1910

Contributed to germ theory of disease.– Discovered Bacillus anthracis

produces anthrax. Developed methods for fixing,

staining, and photographing bacteria.

Developed methods of cultivating bacteria on solid media.

Was able to obtain pure cultures. Discovered bacteria that cause

tuberculosis and cholera.

Koch’s PostulatesKoch’s Postulates 1. A microorganism must be present in every case of the disease.

2. Isolate microorganism from diseased host and grow in pure culture.

3. Same disease produced when microorganisms from pure culture are inoculated into healthy, susceptible hosts.

4. Same microorganism must be recovered from experimentally infected hosts and grown again in pure culture.
