Intestinal protozoa - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

4 subdivisions according to the methods of locomotion. • The amoebae (Sarcodina) move by means of pseudopodia. • The flagellates (Mastigophora) typically move by long, whiplike flagellae. • The ciliates (Ciliata) are propelled by rows of cilia that beat with a synchronized wavelike motion. • The sporozoans (Sporozoa) lack specialized organelles of motility. Move by Gliding, wriggling etc Basic Properties of Protozoa Cellular properties  - Eukaryotic microorganisms havin...

4 stages in a bacterial growth are: - Lag phase, Exponential (Log), Stationary, Death Acid-fast staining - (differential staining) Add carbol fuchsin (primary stain) then heat over flame for few minutes. 2.Wash and then add a decolorizer (5% HCl and 95% ethyl alcohol) to remove primary color from nonacid-fast organisms. Acid-fast bacteria will retain the primary color. Alexander Fleming - discovered penicillin (the first antibiotic discovered!) Anton Van Leeuwenhoek - was the first to obser...

Microbiology - A branch of biology, that deals with all members of the microbial world Classes of Microbiology - Bacteria, Fungi, Protozoa, Algae and "viruses." Beneficial Bacteria - The majority of the bacteria are beneficial. Only about 3% are harmful. Examples of benefits we get from bacteria and fungi include - Bacteria and fungi decay organic matter. Most antibiotics are made by bacteria and fungi. Normal flora contribute to health. Intestinal bacteria are involved in pr...
