Mycoplasmas are prokaryotic , without cell wall & have been placed under the class Mollicutes & the order Mycoplasmatales.
Mycoplasma are the smallest microorganism which have been known to cause a number of disease in animals &human kind.
The cells are bounded by a soft trilamellar lipoproteinaceous unit membrane containing sterols. Because of their plasticity , they can pass through bacterial filters & have often been mistaken for viruses.
Viruses that infect and parsitized bacteria is known as bacteriophage.
It was discovered by Frederick.W.Twort in Great Britian (1915) and Felix d’ Herelle in France(1917).
D’ Herelle coined the term bacteriophage meaning ‘bacterial eater’ to describe the agent’s bacteriocidal activity. He observed lysis of a broth culture of a dysentry bacillus.

Fungi are a kingdom of usually multicellular eukaryotic organisms that are heterotrophs (cannot make their own food) and have important roles in nutrient cycling in an ecosystem. Fungi reproduce both sexually and asexually, and they also have symbiotic associations with plants and bacteria.
A bacteriophage (informally, phage) is a virus that infects and replicates within a bacterium. The term is derived from "bacteria" and the Greek (phagein), "to devour". Bacteriophages are composed of proteins that encapsulate a DNA or RNA genome, and may have relatively simple or elaborate structures. Their genomes may encode as few as four genes, and as many as hundreds of genes. Phages replicate within the bacterium following the injection of their genome into its cytoplasm. Bacteriophages are among the most common and diverse entities in the biosphere.
Phages are widely distributed in locations populated by bacterial hosts, such as soil or the intestines of animals. One of the densest natural sources for phages and other viruses is sea water, where up to 9×108 virions per milliliter have been found in microbial mats at the surface,] and up to 70% of marine bacteria may be infected by phages. They have been used for over 90 years as an alternative to antibiotics in the former Soviet Union and Central Europe, as well as in France. They are seen as a possible therapy against multi-drug-resistant strains of many bacteria (see phage therapy). Nevertheless, phages of Inoviridae have been shown to complicate biofilms involved in pneumonia and cystic fibrosis, shelter the bacteria from drugs meant to eradicate disease and promote persistent infection
Viruses are small, acellular particles that can replicate only in a host cell. They are obligatory intracellular parasites.They
consist of a nucleic acid genome enclosed in a protective protein shell or capsidBacteriophage is the virus that infect bacteria.Bacteriophages were discovered by Frederick Twort(1915)and Felix d'Herelle(1917).

Food Microorganisms
Food microbiology encompasses the study of microorganisms that have either a
beneficial or deleterious effect on the quality and safety of foods.
Food microbiology focuses on the microorganisms that are found in and around foods.
It includes studies of microbial growth characteristics, identification, and prevention.
Specific areas of interest are: foodborne illness, food spoilage, food preservation,
sanitation, and food legislation. These interest areas comprise this course.
The microbiological world consists of bacteria, yeasts, molds, viruses, parasites,
algae and prions. All except algae are considered food microorganisms. Let’s look at
each group briefly.
Bacteria
Bacteria are prokaryotes because they do not possess nuclei. They have a normal
double stranded DNA genome. Sometimes there may be extracellular DNA fragments
known as plasmids. Plasmids can often encode proteins that make the cell enhanced
such as antibiotic resistance.
Plasmids can be shared with other
cells usually of a similar genus or
species. The DNA clusters in the
center of the cell forming a nucleoid.
(If it had a membrane around it, it
would be a nucleus). Closely
associated with the nucleoid are the
ribosomes. Ribosomes translate
DNA into amino acids which are the
building blocks of proteins.
Discuss plasmids and food
microbiology
The main interior is called the
cytoplasm. This is where water,
enzymes, and nutrients all work to
power the cell. There are three main
functions, energy production,
metabolism and catabolism. Energy
naturally is in the form of ATP
generated from metabolic reactions.
Metabolism also consists of enzymes
that build up the components of the
cell. Catabolism consists of enzymes
that break down nutrients. All three
work congruently.
Figure 1. Diagram of bacterial structures.
Discuss catabolic enzymes and food
microbiology
The cytoplasm is surrounded by a
cytoplasmic membrane which
determines what goes in and out of
the organism. Water, dissolved gases
(e.g. CO2 and O2) and lipid-soluble
molecules simply diffuse across the
phospholipid bilayer. Water-soluble
ions generally pass through small
pores in the membrane. All other
molecules require carrier molecules to
transport them through the
membrane.
Discuss membrane function and food
microbiology
Immediately outside of the
cytoplasmic membrane is the cell
wall. This is the component that
stains differently in the Gram stain.
Red is gram negative a thinner peptidoglycan cell wall. Blue or purple is gram positive
usually a much thicker peptidoglycan cell wall. Its main function is structural. The cell
wall provides the bacteria shape: cocci, rods, spirals, etc.
External to the cell wall in SOME bacteria is a capsule layer.
This is a polysaccharide/protein layer that can protect the cell
from desiccation. There are other benefits. Similar to a
capsule, s ...

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”.

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.

2. Mycoplasma is a genus of bacteria that lack a cell wall
around their cell membrane.
Without a cell wall, they are unaffected by many common
antibiotics such as penicillin or other beta-lactam antibiotics
that target cell wall synthesis.
They can be parasitic or saprotrophic.
3. Several species are pathogenic in humans, including M.
pneumoniae, which is an important cause of atypical
pneumonia and other respiratory disorders.
M. genitalium, which is believed to be involved in pelvic
inflammatory diseases.
M. hominis (smallest bacteria) is also associated
with pelvic inflammatory disease.
4. Mycoplasma species are the smallest bacterial cells yet
discovered, can survive without oxygen, and come in
various shapes.
Mycoplasma are prokaryotic microscopic gram – Ve,
non-motile, non spore forming, pleomorphic, filterable
organism.
5. Mycoplasma also called pleuropneumonia-like organisms
(PPLO), cause contagious bovine pleuropneumonia.
Contagious bovine pleuropneumonia is a contagious bacterial
disease that affect the lungs of cattle.
6. Mycoplasma cell surrounded by three layer cell
membrane, it is lipoprotein in nature contain
Sterols.
Only prokaryotic organism contain sterols in the
membrane.
Contain more number of 70s ribosomes and circular ds
DNA.
