This document discusses and compares pathogenic and non-pathogenic microorganisms. It notes that pathogenic microorganisms can cause disease, while non-pathogenic ones generally do not. It provides examples of bacteria and the diseases they cause. The document also discusses opportunistic pathogens that may cause infection when the immune system is compromised. Finally, it outlines some factors that determine the pathogenicity and virulence of different bacteria.
Giving basic concepts regarding culture media and its classification on the basis of different properties like physical state, chemical composition and utility purposes.
Capsule is an layer around the bacteria cell which gives bacteria the protection and pathogenicity. Staining such an layer is difficult with the normal stains so it is necessary to stain the background and the cell itself which makes the capsule appear colourless.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

As a training officer, my goal is to ensure that you are comfortable and proficient with this essential tool for managing assignments and fostering student engagement.
2. • Pathogenic and nonpathogenic bacteria are the two main
types of bacteria other organisms are in contact with.
• The distinction between the two can be made based on
the Koch’s Postulates.
3. Non-Pathogenic Microorganisms:
• Non-Pathogenic microorganisms are incapable of causing disease. i.e.,
harmless to other organisms
• They mostly live in the environment as saprophytes. Some of them are
autotrophs.
• Around 99% of bacteria are nonpathogenic.
• They are useful to man as they are involved in
• manufacturing foods such as butter, cheese,
• alcohol, lactic acid,
• Probiotics and fermented products
• antibiotics
• gradual decomposition of organic matter (dead animals, plants and their wastes) on
or in the soil.
• bio fertilizers etc.
• Some non-pathogenic bacteria live on the surface of animals as normal flora.
They are commensals.
• But, these bacteria can become opportunistic pathogens when they invade
the tissues. For example, E. coli are non-pathogenic bacteria that live in the
gastrointestinal tract and can trigger an immune response under certain
circumstances.
4. • It is estimated that the human body consists of approximately 1013
cells and hosts 1014–1015 individual micro-organisms.
• These micro-organisms can be divided into two groups:
• those that usually remain constant in their normal habitat (indigenous
or resident flora) and
• those that are accidentally acquired (transient flora)
• Body areas that usually harbor micro-organisms are skin, mouth,
nasopharynx, oropharynx and tonsils, large intestine and lower
ileum, external genitalia, anterior urethra, vagina, skin, and external
ear.
• Some functions of normal flora
• Protects the body from pathogenic microorganisms
• Keeps us healthy
• Synthesize certain vitamins etc.
5. Pathogenic Microorganisms:
• Pathogenic microorganisms are those that can cause disease.
• Pathogenicity is the capacity of a microorganism to cause a disease.
• The diseases caused by pathogenic bacteria are generally called infections.
• Pathogenic bacteria possess several genes that endow the capacity to cause
diseases.
• The agents that cause disease fall into five groups: viruses, bacteria, fungi,
protozoa, and helminths (worms).

Bacteria Mycobacterium tuberculosis Tuberculosis
Bacillus anthracis Anthrax
Fungi Candida albicans Candidiasis
Tinea corporis Ringworm
Virus HIV (retro virus) AIDS
Herpes virus Herpes
6. Isenberg and D’ Amato classified microorganisms in disease production as
Murray et al. classified the pathogenicity of organisms as
Categories in both classifications are not always equivalent.
Opportunistic infections are defined as infection caused by non-
pathogenic microorganisms which become pathogenic when the immune
system is impaired by an unrelated disease. Example of an opportunistic
microorganism is Haemophilus ducreyi,which infects its host through broken
skin or epidermis.

7. • Pathogenicity:
The ability of micro-organisms to induce disease, which may be assessed by disease-
carriage ratios
• Virulence:
The severity of the disease induced by micro-organisms. In epidemiological studies
virulence may be assessed by mortality or morbidity rates and the degree of
communicability
• Reservoir:
The place where the organism maintains its presence, metabolizes, and replicates
• Source:
The place from which the infectious agent passes to the host. In some cases the
reservoir and the source are the same, but not always
• Infection:
A microbiologically proven clinical diagnosis of inflammation
• Carriage:
Permanent (minimally 1 week) presence of the same strain in any concentration in body
sites normally not sterile (oropharynx, external nares, gut, vagina, skin)
• Abnormal carrier state:
The abnormal carrier state exists when the isolated micro-organisms is not a constituent
of normal flora (i.e., enterobacterial or pseudomonal strains)
• Colonization:
The presence of micro-organisms in an internal organ that is normally sterile (e.g., lower
airways, bladder). The diagnostic sample yields less than a predetermined level of
cfu/ml of diagnostic sample.
8. Factors that Determine the Pathogenicity of Bacteria
• Host susceptibility
Presence of mechanisms to fight with the infection by the
host immune system
• Pathogenic mechanisms of bacteria
Bacterial infectivity, host resistance, virulence genes, host-
mediated pathogenesis (Gram-negative bacterial sepsis,
tuberculosis, and tuberculoid leprosy) and intracellular growth
• Specific virulence factors
Adherence and colonization factors, invasion factors, presence
of a capsule and other surface components, endotoxins,
exotoxins, and siderophores
