Types: Bacteria Description: eubacteria, archaeabacteria, Gram-negative, Gram-positive, acid fast, cyanobacteria Types: procaryotes, absorbers, wet conditions, animal decomposers, cell walls, unicellular Nutrient Type: chemoheterotrophs, photoheterotrophs, chemoautotrophs, photoautotrophs Durable state: endospores (some) Diseases: tetanus, botulism, gonorrhea, chlamydia, tuberculosis, etc., etc., etc.

8. Rob-Shaped Bacteria

9. Spherical Bacteria

10. Spirochete: Borrelia burgdorferi Spiral-Shaped Bacteria

11. Types: Cyanobacteria Description: blue-green algae Types: photosynthetic aquatic procaryotes, green lake scum, cell walls Nutrient Type: photoautotrophs Diseases: none

12. Types: Algae Description: photosynthetic aquatic eucaryotes, cell walls, both unicellular and multicellular types Types: brown, red, green, diatoms, dinoflagellates, euglenoids Nutrient Type: photoautotrophs Diseases: Some poisonings associated with unicellular types: Alexandrium causes Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning (PSP), Dinophysis causes Diarrhetic Shellfish Poisoning (DSP), Pseudo-nitzschia multiseries causes Amnesic Shellfish Poisoning (ASP) [some would describe some as protists]

13. Types: Fungi Description: yeasts (unicellular fungi), molds (filamentous fungi) Types: eucaryotes, absorbers, dry conditions, plant decomposers, cell walls, ~100 human pathogens Nutrient Type: chemoheterotrophs Durable state: spores Diseases: mycoses: candida, ringworm (pictured), athlete's foot, jock itch, etc.

14. Types: Helminths Description: Flatworms (platyhelminths), roundworms (nematodes) Types: metazoan (multicellular animal) parasites, engulfers and absorbers Nutrient Type: chemoheterotrophs Durable state:? Diseases:trichinosis, hook worm, tape worm (pictured are scolex-heads of), etc.

15. Types: Protozoa (Protists) Description: Unicellular and slime molds, flagellates, ciliates Types: eucaryotes, parasites, engulfers and absorbers, wet conditions, no cell wall, ~30 human pathogens Nutrient Type: chemoheterotrophs (some classifications include some photoautotrophs as well) Durable state: cysts (some) Diseases: malaria, giardiasis, amoebic dysentery, etc. (shown are harmless--to us--protist components of pond water: Amoeba, Blepharisma, Paramecium, Peranema, & Stentor)

16. Types: Viruses Description: Not cells but enveloped or non-enveloped Types: acellular, obligate intracellular parasites Nutrient Type: not applicable Durable state: virion particles, some can encase in durable state of host Diseases: common cold, flu, HIV, herpes, chicken pox, etc.

17. Rickettsia Domain:Bacteria Phylum:Proteobacteria Class:Alphaproteobacteria Subclass:Rickettsidae Rickettsia is a genus of non-motile, Gram-negative, non-sporeforming, highly pleomorphicbacteria that can present as cocci (0.1 μm in diameter), rods (1–4 μm long) or thread-like (10 μm long). obligate intracellular parasites, the Rickettsia survival depends on entry, growth, and replication within the cytoplasm of eukaryotic host cells (typically endothelial cells)

18. Disease: typhus,  rickettsialpox,  Boutonneuse fever, African tick bite fever,  Rocky Mountain spotted fever,  Flinders Island spotted fever and  Queensland tick typhus (Australian tick typhus).

19. Actinomycetes Actinomycete (order Actinomycetales), any member of a heterogeneous group of gram-positive, generally anaerobic bacteria noted for a filamentous and branching growth pattern that results, in most forms, in an extensive colony, or mycelium. • Many genera also form spores; the sporangia, or spore cases, may be found on aerial hyphae, on the colony surface, or free within the environment. Motility, when present, is conferred by flagella. • Present in soil and are harmless to animals and higher plants, while some are important pathogens, and many others are beneficial sources of antibiotics.

20. Of the specific types of actinomycetes,  Nocardia asteroides, an aerobic species, is the primary cause of nocardiosis, an infection of the lungs, brain, or skin in humans.  Dermatophilus congolensis causes dermatophilosis, a severe dermatitis of cattle, sheep, horses, and occasionally humans. Streptomyces cause the disease actinomycosis in humans and cattle. Many of the actinomycetes are sources of antibiotics such as streptomycin.

21. Characterization & classification

22. Taxonomy Involves three steps: 1. Identification 2. Classification 3. Nomenclature Objective is to arrange organisms into categories that reflect the similarities of the individuals within the groups

23. History Carolus Linnaeus: 1700’s: Two Kingdoms: Plants and Animals Ernst Haekel: 1866: Kingdom Protista R.H. Whittaker: 1969: Five Kingdoms Carl Woese: 1990: Three Domains

24. Identification of Microorganisms Microscopic examination Culture characteristics Biochemical tests Nucleic Acid Analysis Serological Tests Person’s symptoms also play a role

25. Organizing, classifying and naming living things Formal system originated by Carl von Linné (1701-1778) Identifying and classifying organisms according to specific criteria Each organism placed into a classification system Taxonomy

26. Taxonomy • Domain • Kingdom • Phylum • Class • Order • Family • Genus • species

27. 3 Domains • Eubacteria • true bacteria, peptidoglycan • Archaea • odd bacteria that live in extreme environments, high salt, heat, etc. (usually called extremophiles) • Eukarya • have a nucleus & organelles (humans, animals, plants)

31. Taxonomy • 4 main kingdoms: • Protista • Fungi • Plantae • Animalia • Algae

32. Naming Micoorganisms • Binomial (scientific) nomenclature • Gives each microbe 2 names: • Genus - noun, always capitalized • species - adjective, lowercase • Both italicized or underlined • Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) • Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis) • Escherichia coli (E. coli)

33. Insert figure 1.15 Woese-Fox System

34. Species and Subspecies • Species • collection of bacterial cells which share an overall similar pattern of traits in contrast to other bacteria whose pattern differs significantly • Strain or variety • culture derived from a single parent that differs in structure or metabolism from other cultures of that species (biovars, morphovars) • Type • subspecies that can show differences in antigenic makeup (serotype or serovar), susceptibility to bacterial viruses (phage type) and in pathogenicity (pathotype)
