This note
provides a general introduction to the diverse roles of microorganisms in
natural and artificial environments. It will cover the topics includes: cellular
architecture, energetics, and growth, evolution and gene flow, population and
community dynamics, water and soil microbiology, biogeochemical cycling, and
microorganisms in biodeterioration and bioremediation.
This note will provide
an introduction to microbiology. It also focuses on the evolution, diversity and
taxonomy of microbes and their ecological significance. Topics covered includes:
Cell or Molecular Biology and Molecular Genetics, Physiology and Metabolism,
Evolution and Diversity, Ecology.
This note covers
basic concepts of microbes as pathogens, food spoilage and fermentative
organisms. Microbial relationships to immunology, sanitation, pollution and
geochemical cycling will also be covered.
This book begins with a review of the immune system, focusing on
the body's response to invading microorganisms. Bacteria are then covered, first
with a series of chapters presenting the general concepts of bacterial
microbiology and then with chapters detailing the major bacterial pathogenes of
humans.
This book introduces the
microscopy and basic techniques such as culture of bacteria, staining
microorganisms, identification of bacteria and a survey of microorganisms.
