Introduction
1
– Distinguish between Eukaryotes and
Prokaryotes.
– Describe bacteria by their shapes and
Structure also explain the function of its components.
– Name some common Terms.
– Explain the structural modifications (flagella) of the
cell and their functional importance.
By the end of the session you should be able to
What is Microbiology ?
microorganism or microbe is an organism
that is so small that it is microscopic (invisible to the naked
eye)
– several classes of living beings
• Based on the organization of their cellular structures,
all living cells can be divided
into two groups:
eukaryotic and prokaryotic
Prokaryotes
bacteria & blue green
algae
Eukaryotes
Animals, plants, fungi,
protozoans, and algae
Living beings
 Common Terms
• INFECTION: the establishment of a microorganism within
a host.
• PATHOGEN: Any microorganism that has the capacity to
• cause disease.
• VIRULENCE: quantitative measure of the likelihood of
• causing disease.
• OPORTUNISTICS:
• Principle pathogens regularly cause disease
• Opportunistic pathogens require a defect in the immune
defence
Antioni van Leeuwenhoek
• Leeuwenhoek is called "the inventor of the microscope"
• Created a “simple” microscope that could magnify to ab
out 275x, and published drawings of mi
croorganisms in 1683
• Could reach magnifications of over 200x with simple gr
ound lenses
3Dr.T.V.Rao MD
Prokaryote vs Eukaryote
Size of Bacteria
• Unit of measuremen
t in bacteriology is the
micron (micrometre, µ
m)
• Bacteria of medical
importance –0.2 – 1.5
µm in diameter –3 – 5
µm in
length
Outer layer – two components:
1. Rigid cell wall
2. Cytoplasmic (Cell/ Plasma) membrane – present beneath cell
wall
Cytoplasm – cytoplasmic inclusions, ribosomes, mesosomes, g
enetic material
Additional structures –capsule, flagella, fimbriae (pili), spores
Anatomy of A Bacterial Cell
who examined the first microorganisms?
Who is bigger in size? (prokaryotes or Eukaryotes)?
Where can we found bacteria ?
What is the Function of cell wall ?
Bacterial shapes are variable describe ?
Bacterial Cell structure can be modified, how come?
