Bacteria Introduction Bacteria are unicellular
micro-organisms ranging in length from a few micrometers to half a millimeter.
They come in a variety of different shapes (cocci, bacilli and spirilli).
Bacteria can be found in almost every ecosystem on Earth. They are an estimated 5 x 1030 bacteria on Earth!

Bacteria Introduction Bacteria are important to
many nutrient cycles and are important decomposers of organic material.
Bacteria are found all over the human body, however the majority are harmless or even beneficial.
Some bacteria are pathogenic and cause disease.

Bacteria History
Bacteria were first observed by Anton Van Leeuwenhoek in 1676.
The term ‘bacteria’, Greek for ‘small stuff ’ was first used in 1838.

Bacterial History Robert Koch and Louis
Pasteur were the first to discover that bacteria caused many diseases (mid 19th century)
The first antibiotic used to treat bacterial disease was made by Paul Ehrlich in 1910. It was used to treat syphilis.

The Evolution of Bacteria Bacteria are thought (by
some) to be the first forms of life, about 4 billion years ago.
It is believed that both the Domain Archaea and the Domain Eukarya evolved from bacteria.
Due to a poor fossil record, scientists are unable to determine from what bacteria evolved.

Morphology Bacterial cells are
prokaryotic, lacking a nucleus and complex organelles.
They have a cell membrane and a cell wall made up of peptidoglycan which is a combo of protein and carbohydrate, making it different from the cell walls of Archaea and Eukaryotes such as plants or fungi.

Two Types of Bacterial Cell WallsGram Positive
Thick Cell Wall (Less Common)
Gram NegativeThin Cell Wall with lipoproteins (More
Common)

Morphology Continued Bacteria use flagella or
pili for movement and interaction with the environment.
Shapes:
bacillus – rod
coccus – sphere
spirillus – spiral
vibrio – boomerang
spirochaetes – tight coils

Morphology Continued Prefixes are added to
the shapes to indicate the living arrangement of the bacteria.
Prefixes:
Strepto – chain of bacteria
Staphylo – grape like cluster

Bacterial Reproduction Bacteria usually
reproduce asexually using the process of binary fission (p. 424 in your textbook).
![Page 12: Kingdom Bacteria - aaitken.weebly.com](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022013005/61cc8926f296063b9d00e14c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Sexual Reproduction??? Some bacteria reproduce
sexually by exchanging some of their DNA through a conjugation tube to another bacterium.
Usually plasmid DNA, not genomic DNA.

Bacterial Growth Lag Phase: bacteria
adjusting to new environment and growing slowly
Log Phase: exponential growth
Stationary Phase: Bacteria have reached the carrying capacity of the environment
Death Phase: logarithmic death of bacteria as nutrients get used up.
![Page 14: Kingdom Bacteria - aaitken.weebly.com](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022013005/61cc8926f296063b9d00e14c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Bacterial Interactions Mutualism: an
interaction where all parties benefit.
Examples are nitrogen fixing bacteria in the soil as well as the naturally occurring bacteria in our gut.
![Page 15: Kingdom Bacteria - aaitken.weebly.com](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022013005/61cc8926f296063b9d00e14c/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Bacterial Interactions Parasitism: An
interaction where one party benefits and the other is negatively affected.
Bacteria cause disease in many organisms. These bacteria are said to be pathogenic.

Treatment of Bacterial Diseases Antibiotics are used to
treat bacterial diseases.
Antibiotics work by punching holes in the cell walls of bacteria to allow the bodies natural defenses to be more effective OR they prevent the bacteria from reproducing.
![Page 17: Kingdom Bacteria - aaitken.weebly.com](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022013005/61cc8926f296063b9d00e14c/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Antibiotic Resistance Many bacteria are resistant to
antibiotics due to their overuse for treatment of things not caused by bacteria, patients not following their prescriptions properly or just by natural selection.
This has created what is known as a ‘superbug’, which is a term for a bacterium that cannot be destroyed by antibiotics.

Bacteria and Technology1) Food Preparation:
Lactobacillus is used in making pickles, soy sauce, cheese, wine, yoghurt, etc…
2) Bioremediation: Cleaning up toxic chemicals in the environment by breaking them down into less toxic products
![Page 19: Kingdom Bacteria - aaitken.weebly.com](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022013005/61cc8926f296063b9d00e14c/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Bacteria and Technology3) Biologically Safe
Pesticides: they are specific to the pest and do not harm plants, humans, pollinators or similar non-pest species.
4) Bioengineering: Used to reproduce specific genes quickly to mass produce their protein products (i.e. insulin).

Isolation If an individual bacterial cell is separated from
other cells and has space on a nutrient surface, it will grow into a mound of cells-- a colony.
A colony consists of one species.

What you’re going to do Get into groups of 2 or 3
Each group gets two culture plates
Grab a bag of sterile inoculation loops
Grab a cotton swab and swab an area you want to test for bacteria
Swab a quadrant of petri dish with your bacteria filled cotton swab
Grab an inoculation loop and practice streaking (each member takes turns streaking)
Remember aseptic technique

Testing Effectiveness of Various Cleaning Supplies
On your other plate, label the top with your names and draw a line down the middle
Grab a cotton swab and swab an area you want to test for bacteria on one side of plate
Take another swab and put the cleaning product you want to test on it
Swab the around the same area you wanted to test
Smear swab w/ bacteria and cleaning agent on other side of plate
Rubber band together
Clean area and store plates
