Pearson Education Inc. The electromagnetic spectrum Figure 4.1
8.
Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc. What is magnification? Magnification is defined by the magnification by the objective x the magnification by eyepiece BUT maximum magnification does not mean maximum resolution!
9.
Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc. wavelength of visible light – 400 nm detail smaller than 200nm (approximately half the wavelength of light) cannot be resolved by the light microscope 400 nm 200 nm 25 nm Rule: limit of resolution is half the wavelength 800nm 220 nm

Pearson Education Inc. The limits of resolution Figure 4.3
12.
Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc. Microscope Resolution • ability of a lens to separate or distinguish small objects that are close together • wavelength of light used is major factor in resolution shorter wavelength ⇒ γρεατερ ρεσολυτιον
13.
Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc. •working distance — distance between the front surface of lens and surface of cover glass or specimen
14.
Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc. Microscopy • General Principles of Microscopy – Contrast – Differences in intensity between two objects, or between an object and background – Important in determining resolution – Staining increases contrast – Use of light that is in phase increases contrast
15.
Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc. Contrasting techniques Brightfield Darkfield Phase contrast DIC Taken from: http://fig.cox.miami.edu/~cmallery/150/Fallsyll.htm
16.
Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc. Microscopy • Light Microscopy – Bright-field microscopes – Simple – Contain a single magnifying lens – Similar to magnifying glass – Leeuwenhoek used simple microscope to observe microorganisms
17.
Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc.
18.
Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc. Microscopy • Light Microscopy – Bright-field microscopes – Compound – Series of lenses for magnification – Light passes through specimen into objective lens – Oil immersion lens increases resolution – Have one or two ocular lenses – Total magnification = magnification of objective lens X magnification of ocular lens – Most have condenser lens (direct light through specimen)
19.

Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc. The effects of immersion oil on resolution Figure 4.5
21.
Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc. Microscopy • Light Microscopy – Dark-field microscopes – Best for observing pale objects – Only light rays scattered by specimen enter objective lens – Specimen appears light against dark background – Increases contrast and enables observation of more details
22.

Pearson Education Inc. Four kinds of light microscopy Figure 4.8
24.
Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc. Microscopy • Electron Microscopy – Light microscopes cannot resolve structures closer than 200 nm – Electron microscopes have greater resolving power and magnification – Magnifies objects 10,000X to 100,000X – Detailed views of bacteria, viruses, internal cellular structures, molecules, and large atoms – Two types – Transmission electron microscopes – Scanning electron microscopes

Pearson Education Inc. Classification and Identification of Microorganisms • Taxonomy consists of classification, nomenclature, and identification • Organize large amounts of information about organisms • Make predictions based on knowledge of similar organisms
42.
Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc. Classification and Identification of Microorganisms • Linnaeus, Whittaker, and Taxonomic Categories – Linnaeus – System classified organisms based on characteristics in common – Grouped organisms that can successfully interbreed into categories called species – Used binomial nomenclature in his system
43.

Pearson Education Inc. Levels in Linnaean taxonomic scheme Figure 4.22
44.
Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc. Classification and Identification of Microorganisms • Linnaeus, Whittaker, and Taxonomic Categories – Whittaker – Linnaeus proposed only two kingdoms – Whittaker proposed taxonomic approach based on five kingdoms – Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protista, and Prokaryotae
45.
Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc. Whittaker’s five-kingdom taxonomic scheme Figure 4.23
46.
Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc. Classification and Identification of Microorganisms • Linnaeus, Whittaker, and Taxonomic Categories – Linnaeus’s goal was classifying organisms to catalogue them – Modern goal is understanding relationships among groups of organisms – Goal of modern taxonomy is to reflect phylogenetic hierarchy – Greater emphasis on comparisons of organisms’ genetic material led to proposal to add domain
47.
Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc. Classification and Identification of Microorganisms • Domains – Carl Woese compared nucleotide sequences of rRNA subunits – Proposal of three domains as determined by ribosomal nucleotide sequences – Eukarya, Bacteria, and Archaea – Cells in the three domains also differ with respect to many other characteristics
48.
Copyright © 2011
Pearson Education Inc. Classification and Identification of Microorganisms • Taxonomic and Identifying Characteristics – Physical characteristics – Biochemical tests – Serological tests – Phage typing – Analysis of nucleic acids
