Leishmania Parasite Life Cycle Leishmania parasites cause a variety of similar diseases but in each case the organisms follow a similar life cycle in sand flies and humans. leishmania life cycle • leishmaniasis protozoa parasitic disease • parasite human sand flies • visceral cutaneous mucocutaneous • fly phlebotomus blood
Asexual and Sexual Reproduction Some living things reproduce by cloning; producing offspring that are genetically identical to the parent. Organisms that procreate sexually create genetic novelty. cell division • mitosis • meiosis • asexual reproduction • sexual reproduction
Bacteria Horizontal Gene Transfer Although bacterial reproduction results in the generation of clones, prokaryotes can undergo genetic recombination through transformation, transduction, and conjugation. bacteria gene transfer • horizontal gene transfer • vertical gene transfer • bacterial conjugation • bacteria transduction
Differential Bacterial Growth Media In microbiology, there are many different techniques used to identify microbes. Differential media typically provide general information regarding identity. bacterial identification • identifying bacteria • bacteria growth medium • bacterial growth media • differential growth media
Mannitol Salts Agar (MSA) Bacterial Growth Media Mannitol Salt Agar is a special bacterial growth medium that is selective for halophiles and can differentiate pathogenic and nonpathogenic Staphylococcus. mannitol salt agar msa • differential growth media • selective bacterial growth medium • grow staphylococcus bacteria • grow bacterial colonies
Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells There are only two basic types of cells, primitive prokaryotes and the more complex eukaryotes. Here are the main features that distinguish these cell types. prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells • difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell • prokaryotic eukaryotic living things • single-celled prokaryotes eukaryotes • cell types
Prokaryotic Microbe Cell Biology Prokaryotes are evolutionarily ancient, for billions of years the only form of life. Here's a summary of the basic "parts & pieces" of these primitive cells. prokaryotic cell biology • eukaryotic cell biology • prokaryotic cell structure • microbe cell biology • archaea domain
What is Microbiology?: Or the study of little critters!! Microbiology, like all sciences, has a language of its own. Unfortunately, that language makes it very difficult for people not familiar with it to understand. I will attempt to write microbiology articles and define the microbiology language as we go. microbiology • jargon
Bacterial Cell Wall Structure The amount and location of peptidoglycan in the prokaryotic cell wall is what determines whether a bacterium is Gram-positive or Gram-negative. bacterial cell wall • bacteria cell wall structure • prokaryote eukaryote • prokaryotic eukaryotic cell • peptidoglycan antibiotics
Blood Agar (BAP) Bacterial Growth Medium Blood Agar is a bacterial growth medium that can distinguish normal from pathogenic bacteria based on the interaction of sheep's blood and bacterial hemolytic enzymes. blood agar bap • blood agar medium • ifferential bacterial growth medium • selective bacterial growth medium • hemolytic patterns
Chronic Diseases Caused by Mycobacteria The genus Mycobacterium contains many members, few of which are pathogens. But when pathogenic, such chronic diseases as tuberculosis and Hansen's Disease may result. mycobacterial infection • mycobacteria disease • mycobacterium infectious disease • lepromatous leprosy • tuburculoid leprosy
Eukaryotic Cell Biology Structure and Function Eukaryotic cells possess several critical differences from prokaryotic cells, including a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. eukaryote cellular structure • eukaryotic cell structureal elements organelles • prokaryote prokaryotic • cell nucleus cytoplasm ribosomes • cytoskeleton microfilaments intermediate filaments
Gram Negative ( Gram- ) Bacteria Most bacteria have one of these two types of cell walls. The differential Gram stain uses two dyes to distinguish between bacteria based on cell wall structure. gram-negative gram- bacteria pathogens • gram bacterial stain protocol procedure • eubacteria archaea prokaryotes prokaryotic • bacterial cell wall peptidoglycan • lipopolysaccharide lps membrane endotoxin
Gram Positive ( Gram+ ) Bacteria Most bacteria have one of these two types of cell walls. The differential Gram stain uses two dyes to distinguish between bacteria based on cell wall structure. gram-positive gram+ bacteria • gram positive bacterial cells • gram stain staining protocol procedure • bacterial cell wall peptidoglycan • gram-negative gram negative gram-

Selective Bacterial Growth Media Selective media inhibits the growth of certain microbes, providing general information regarding the bacteria that are able to grow on this specialized of agar. selective bacterial media • bacterial growth medium • agar to grow bacteria • grow bacteria in petri dish • macconkeys agar mac
Viral Phage Replication & Bacteria Bacteriophages are a particular type of virus that infects only bacterial cells. Ultimately the virus kills its host, but sometimes it first becomes a hidden prophage. viral replication • bacteriophage replication • bacteriophage virus • virus reproduction • virus replication
Chlamydia trachomatis Infection Chlamydia is the most commonly reported bacterial sexually transmitted infection (STI) in North America. More than 2,000,000 people in the U.S. have Chlamydia infection. sexually transmitted • chlamydia • chlamydia trachomatis • cervicitis • urethritis |
