EXAM 1 micro lecture Flashcards
examples of microbes
bacteria virus fungi protozones
Bacteria
living cells
virus
not considered living
fungi
mold spores, small gap microscope of fungi
Golden age of microbiology
late 1800s early 1900s
Who created first microscope
van leeuwenhoek
Who created 1st mass market microscope (reasonable price)?
Zeiss Corp Switzerland
What was different about the first mass market microscope?
stacked lenses, ocular
Why do disruptive technologies help microbiology?
invasive, treating patients as “laboratory”, challenge “status quo”
2 biggest obstacles in surgery
pain, post opt infections
If you fix pain level in surgery for patients how does it help surgeries overall
better operations, broad options, longer period to operate
why was anesthesia a disruptive technology
patients might die, pain is “gods way of talking to you”, some people thought pain is natural way of healing
miasma cloud
if you do something bad, you gets zapped with disease
What things are used as anesthesia
ether, cocaine
did they keep or get rid of idea of spontaneous generation
had to get rid of it and replace it with something else
who experimented with spontaneous generation
Louis pasteur
what did Louis Pasteur demonstrate
microbes are transported by air & life comes from life
what is theory of biogenesis
living things can only come through living things
how did Louis Pasteur flask prove spontaneous generation wrong
his s shape flask kept microbes out but let air in
What is kochs germ theory of disease
bacteria can cause disease
what does biogenesis lead to
Kochs postulates
acute disease
severe and sudden in onset
chronic
long developing
what is the causing agent of anthrax
bacillus anthracis
where is anthrax found
soil
why do we not need to make antibodies 24/7
bc macrophages
antigen
toxin or other foreign substance that induces an immune response in the body
antibodies
a blood protein produced in response to and counteracting a specific antigen
examples of white blood cell
lymphocyte, neurtrophili, esophil, basophil, macrophage, monocyte
monocyte
circulating blood stream
what is similar about macrophages and monocytes
they are they same just depending where you find them
macrophages
tissue
another name for macrophages
dendritic cells
where are monocytes created
stem cells in bone marrow
what created macrophages
monocytes
what process does macrophages use to destroy and get rid of unwanted particles
phagocytosis
antigens complex form macrophages are made how
peptide fragments from particles with some of its own proteins
old time word TB
Consumption
how many europeans died in the golden age from TB
1/4
is TB acute and chronic
chronic
why is it not normal for the time that TB is chronic
because bacterial infections were usually said to be acute infections
once monocyte leaves blood can it go back into blood
NO
what is the differences of shapes between monocyte and macrophages
more circular monocyte macrophages are dysformed
examples of acute diseases
cold flu small pox chicken pox measles
