MICROBES
• At present Microorganisms can be
bacteria, fungi, archaea or protists.
The term microorganisms does not
include viruses and prions, which
are generally classified as non-
living.

Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
WHERE WILL MICRO ORGANISMS BE FOUND?
• Microorganisms are found in almost every habitat
present in nature, including hostile environments
such as the North and South poles, deserts,
geysers, and rocks.
• They also include all the marine microorganisms of
the oceans and deep sea too.
5

Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
HOW IT’S IMPORTANT IN OUR DAILY LIFE?
• Each human body hosts 10 microorganisms for
every human cell, and these microbes contribute to
digestion, produce vitamin K, promote development
of the immune system, and detoxify harmful
chemicals.
• Microbes are essential to making many foods we
enjoy, such as bread, cheese, and wine.
6
6/20/2021
Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
WHY WE NEED MICRO ORGANISMS?
• Microorganisms are useful in producing foods,
treating waste water, creating biofuels and a wide
range of chemicals and enzymes.
• They are invaluable in research as model organisms.
• They have been weaponized and
sometimes used in warfare and bioterrorism
7

Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
USAGE OF MICROORGANISMS IN OUR DAILY LIFE
• Microbes like bacteria and fungi act on the bodies of dead
plants and animals and convert them into simple
substances.
• These substances are used by other plants and animals.
• Removal of dead bodies by the action
of microbes keeps our planet clean.
• Bacteria are also used in sewage treatment, waste
organic matter etc.,

OTHER USES OF MICROORGANISMS
• 1. Production of Antibiotics
• 2. Production of Dairy Products
• 3. Production of Alcoholic Beverages
• 4. Production of Bread making
• 5. Production of Food Yeast
• 6. Production of Organic Acids
• 7. Production of Vitamins
• 8. Improving the agriculture
• 9. Production of Vaccine
• 10. Production of insecticides

Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
AGRICULTURE
• Microbes are harmful but some microbes are useful for our
day to day life.
• Used as, bio –control agent
• Biological fertilizer/Bio fertilizer
• Used as herbicides and pesticides
• Microbes control insects pest, pathogens and weeds to be
controlled
• Bio control agents are expensive, safe than chemical
pesticides
• Bio fertilizers are cheap, safe renewable resources rather
than chemical fertilizers
11

Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
CONTD.,
• Used for help high yield
by control of disease
• Bacteria and fungi plays vital
role in agriculture
• Microbes increases soil fertility

PRODUCTION OF ORGANIC ACIDS, ENZYMES
AND VITAMINS
• Oxalic acid, acetic acid, citric acid are produced by
“ASPERGILLUS NIGER”
• Enzymes like lipases, protases and glucose are derived from
microbes
• Yeast are rich source of vitamin-B complex.
• Easy to maintain and cultivate the microbes
• Microbes are easily manipulated genetically.

MEDICINE
17
6/20/2021
Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
ANTIBIOTICS
• Medicines are called
antibiotics
• These medicines are produced
from bacteria and fungi
• Streptomycin, tetracycline,
penicillium and erythromycin
are some of the commonly
known antibiotics
• These medicines kill or stop
the growth of the disease
causing micro organism
18
6/20/2021
Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
VACCINES
• These are produced by killing are
making the microbes inactive
• These inactive microbes are unable to
cause disease but stimulate the body to
produce antibodies against the antigen
in the microbes
• MMR-measles, mumps and rubella
• BCG- tuberculosis
• POLIO VIRUS-polio
• TETANUS TOXOID (TT)-tetanus
• HEPATITIS B-hepatitis B
• DITPHERIA TOXOID- Diptheria

Uses of microbes

  • 1. USES OF MICROBES DR. C. BEULAH JAYARANI M.Sc., M.A, M.Ed, M.Phil (Edn), M.Phil (ZOO), NET, Ph.D (Edn) ASST. PROFESSOR, LOYOLA COLLEGE OF EDUCATION, CHENNAI - 34
  • 2. MICROBES Microbes or micro organisms are minute living things that are usually unable to be viewed with the naked eye. The study of microorganisms is called microbiology. The Father of Microbiology is Antonie van Leeuwenhoek 2 6/20/2021 Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
  • 3. TYPES OF MICRO ORGANISMS 3 6/20/2021 Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
  • 4. MICROBES • At present Microorganisms can be bacteria, fungi, archaea or protists. The term microorganisms does not include viruses and prions, which are generally classified as non- living. 4 6/20/2021 Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
  • 5. WHERE WILL MICRO ORGANISMS BE FOUND? • Microorganisms are found in almost every habitat present in nature, including hostile environments such as the North and South poles, deserts, geysers, and rocks. • They also include all the marine microorganisms of the oceans and deep sea too. 5 6/20/2021 Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
  • 6. HOW IT’S IMPORTANT IN OUR DAILY LIFE? • Each human body hosts 10 microorganisms for every human cell, and these microbes contribute to digestion, produce vitamin K, promote development of the immune system, and detoxify harmful chemicals. • Microbes are essential to making many foods we enjoy, such as bread, cheese, and wine. 6 6/20/2021 Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
  • 7. WHY WE NEED MICRO ORGANISMS? • Microorganisms are useful in producing foods, treating waste water, creating biofuels and a wide range of chemicals and enzymes. • They are invaluable in research as model organisms. • They have been weaponized and sometimes used in warfare and bioterrorism 7 6/20/2021 Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
  • 8. USAGE OF MICROORGANISMS IN OUR DAILY LIFE • Microbes like bacteria and fungi act on the bodies of dead plants and animals and convert them into simple substances. • These substances are used by other plants and animals. • Removal of dead bodies by the action of microbes keeps our planet clean. • Bacteria are also used in sewage treatment, waste organic matter etc., 8 6/20/2021 Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
  • 9. OTHER USES OF MICROORGANISMS • 1. Production of Antibiotics • 2. Production of Dairy Products • 3. Production of Alcoholic Beverages • 4. Production of Bread making • 5. Production of Food Yeast • 6. Production of Organic Acids • 7. Production of Vitamins • 8. Improving the agriculture • 9. Production of Vaccine • 10. Production of insecticides 9 6/20/2021 Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
  • 11. AGRICULTURE • Microbes are harmful but some microbes are useful for our day to day life. • Used as, bio –control agent • Biological fertilizer/Bio fertilizer • Used as herbicides and pesticides • Microbes control insects pest, pathogens and weeds to be controlled • Bio control agents are expensive, safe than chemical pesticides • Bio fertilizers are cheap, safe renewable resources rather than chemical fertilizers 11 6/20/2021 Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
  • 12. CONTD., • Used for help high yield by control of disease • Bacteria and fungi plays vital role in agriculture • Microbes increases soil fertility 12 6/20/2021 Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
  • 16. PRODUCTION OF ORGANIC ACIDS, ENZYMES AND VITAMINS • Oxalic acid, acetic acid, citric acid are produced by “ASPERGILLUS NIGER” • Enzymes like lipases, protases and glucose are derived from microbes • Yeast are rich source of vitamin-B complex. • Easy to maintain and cultivate the microbes • Microbes are easily manipulated genetically. 16 6/20/2021 Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
  • 18. ANTIBIOTICS • Medicines are called antibiotics • These medicines are produced from bacteria and fungi • Streptomycin, tetracycline, penicillium and erythromycin are some of the commonly known antibiotics • These medicines kill or stop the growth of the disease causing micro organism 18 6/20/2021 Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
  • 19. VACCINES • These are produced by killing are making the microbes inactive • These inactive microbes are unable to cause disease but stimulate the body to produce antibodies against the antigen in the microbes • MMR-measles, mumps and rubella • BCG- tuberculosis • POLIO VIRUS-polio • TETANUS TOXOID (TT)-tetanus • HEPATITIS B-hepatitis B • DITPHERIA TOXOID- Diptheria 19 6/20/2021 Dr. C. Beulah Jayarani
