Microbiology 2600-MIKBIOL-2-S1
This lecture aims to present microbiology as a fundamental applied biological science. Prokaryotic microorganisms (Bacteria and Archaea) and the characteristics that distinguish them from eukaryotic organisms are discussed.
The scope of knowledge in this subject covered in the lectures covers several main topics:
1. Morphological diversity of bacteria,
2. Bacterial cytology,
3.Nutrition and energy sources for bacteria,
4. Bacterial metabolism,
5. Bacterial variability,
Laboratory activities include knowledge and skills in:
1. Microbiology laboratory organization,
2. Morphology and measurement of microbial cells,
3. Bacterial cytology,
4. Methods for direct and indirect identification of bacteria in selected samples,
5. The effect of physical factors on microorganisms,
6. The effect of chemical factors on microorganisms,
7. Examination of physiological properties using selected tests,
8. Interactions between microorganisms, with particular emphasis on antibiotics. 9. Bacterial, animal and plant viruses - determination of bacteriophage titer
