there
are
more
than
one
bacteria
involved
in
it
and
its
called
polymicrobial
infections.
You
take
the
example
of
dental
caries,
periodontal
disease,
any
of
them.
There
are
maybe
one,
two,
three,
or
some
group
of
microorganisms
involved
in
it.
So
where
are
all
these
microorganisms
coming
from?
Recent
studies
based
upon
genetics
or
16
S,
we
have
come
to
know
that
there
are
more
than
700
different
bacterial
species
present
in
our
mouth.
At
any
given
time,
today,
if
I
take
a
saliva
or
plaque
sample
from
you,
I
can
easily
identify
more
than
300
bacterial
species
from
there.
So,
all
these
bacteria
are
present
in
our
mouth
as
a
community.
Most
of
the
time,
they
are
at
a
very
unique
balance
that
is
being
maintained.
These
are
called
commensal
organisms.
Once
they
are
there
and
if
there
is
an
ecological
imbalance,
that
means
the
present
of
large
amounts
of
fermentable
sugar,
or
there
is
a
trauma,
or
dental
extractions
or
anything,
any
kind
of
trauma
or
ecological
imbalance,
the
balance
between
the
good
and
bacteria
changes.
The
bad
comes
up
and
the
good
goes
down.
And
then
we
start
seeing
the
disease.
As
a
clinician,
you
are
doing
something.
Slide
3-
Diagnostic
Microbiology
This
is
general
practice
dentistry.
You
are
seeing
something
in
the
oral
cavity
and
now
you
want
to
find
out
if
there
is
any
infectious
agent
associated
with
it.
Ok.
This
is
just
a
basic
diagnostic
microbiology.
If
you
are
involved
in
a
research
project
or
something
like
that,
you
want
to
see
what
is
involved
in
that.
Most
of
the
diseases,
like
I
said,
are
associated
with
some
kind
of
microorganisms
in
the
oral
cavity.
We
are
working
on
multiple
diseases
in
my
lab
and
we
have
seen
that
each
of
those
diseases
are
associated
with
some
kind
of
pathogen
from
the
oral
cavity.
If
you
see
here,
this
is
what
you
are
seeing
here.
After
seeing
here,
you
are
deciding
on
how
many
extractions
you
can
do
and
you
can
plan
your
vacation
based
upon
the
number
of
extractions
right?
But
thats
not
happening
here.
You
see
there
are
infections
associated
with
it.
You
collect
the
specific
samples,
go
to
the
lab,
it
comes
back,
you
do
the
interpretations,
diagnosis,
and
treatment,
and
all
that
stuff
is
done.
Now
this
is
important
here.
If
the
samples
which
you
collected
here
are
not
correct,
all
the
interpretation
which
is
being
given
to
you
form
the
diagnostic
labs
will
be
wrong.
Suppose
you
want
to
check
the
organisms
that
are
responsible
for
periodontal
disease.
You
have
to
collect
sub
gingival,
supra
gingival
plaque
samples
and
send
it
to
us.
Or
a
GCF
or
something
like
that.
Close
to
the
proximity
of
the
disease.
If
you
want
to
study
the
association
of
oral
cancer
and
microorganisms,
you
need
to
have
a
tumor
sample
if
you
want
to
see.
If
you
want
to
study
a
biomarkers
in
the
saliva,
then
you
need
to
have
the
saliva
samples.
Thats
how
the
lab
analysis
is
done
and
then
the
data
is
given
back
to
you.
And
based
upon
the
data,
you
will
start
whatever
antibiotic
therapy
you
want
to
do.
Or
antibiotic
treatment.
Slide
4-Diagnostic
Microbiology
In
the
first
hour,
will
see
what
are
the
clinical
specimens
we
can
collect.
Series
of
lab
testing
procedures,
interpretations
of
microbiological
reports,
definitive
diagnosis
and
then
how
you
can
start
an
antibiotic
therapy.
Slide
5-
Clinical
Sample
Collection
and
Handling
Collect
from
the
right
site
because
if
you
want
a
plaque
sample,
you
can
easily
collect
from
the
right
side.
Saliva
samples
are
very
easy.
There
are
2
types
of
saliva
samples.
One
is
called
stimulated
saliva
sample.
That
means
you
are
stimulating
large
amounts
of
saliva
production.
How
can
this
be
done?
Generally,
we
give
a
paraffin
strip
or
a
non-flavored
gum
for
a
subject
or
a
patient
to
chew
for
5
minutes
and
then
they
can
give
5-10
mL
of
saliva.
Unstimulated
means
at
any
time,
no
chewing,
nothing,
and
they
can
give
easily
5-6
mL
of
saliva
at
any
given
time.
You
require
enough
amount
of
sample
if
you
want
to
know
the
good
analysis.
Send
to
the
labs
for
processing
as
soon
as
possible.
Why
this
is
important?
In
the
oral
cavity,
most
of
the
microorganisms
are
facultative
or
strict
anaerobes.
Facultative
organisms,
we
will
see
the
definition
in
the
next
few
slides.
Facultative
organisms
are
those
that
want
to
grow
in
the
absence
of
oxygen,
but
if
little
amount
of
oxygen
is
there,
they
can
survive.
Bit
strict
anaerobes
are
the
organisms
like
Porphyromonas
gingivalis
which
is
associated
with
periodontal
disease.
They
are
strictly
anaerobes.
If
they
get
exposed
to
any
amount
of
oxygen
or
environmental
oxygen,
they
die
immediately.
If
you
want
to
do
a
lab
analysis
of
the
specimen
which
you
collected
and
you
want
to
find
out
what
are
the
anaerobes
present
there,
you
need
to
send
it
to
the
lab
as
soon
as
possible.
Most
of
the
samples
collected
here
in
the
clinics
when
you
go
to
the
clinics,
samples
will
be
collected
here.
They
go
to
the
Tisch
hospital.
Thats
where
all
the
diagnostic
microbiology
work
has
been
done,
so
the
samples
have
to
be
shipped
as
soon
as
possible.
Transport
in
an
appropriate
medium.
Generally
you
will
be
provided
with
a
specific
kit.
How
to
collect
and
how
to
store
and
then
ship
it.
Avoid
contaminations.
In
microbiology,
there
is
a
technique
called
aseptic
technique,
ok?
Which
has
to
be
very
strictly
followed.
Aseptic
techniques
means
there
is
no
presence
of
pathogens.
But
in
this,
aseptic
means
presence
of
any
other
contamination.
You
have
to
protect
yourself
and
you
have
to
protect
the
specimen
which
you
are
collecting.
All
the
work
done
in
the
lab,
in
the
microbiology
lab
and
while
you
are
collecting
the
samples-of
course
you
cannot
make
the
person
sterile,
or
you
cant
autoclave
him-the
time
you
collect
the
samples
from
the
oral
cavity
and
then
put
it
in
the
tube.
From
that
until
the
lab,
everything
has
to
be
done
in
aseptic
conditions.
The
vials
which
you
are
collecting,
the
samples
which
you
are
collecting
cannot
be
left
open
into
the
environment.
Air
has
hundreds
of
microorganisms
that
can
go
inside.
You
cannot
touch
any
of
the
stuff
like
your
iPhones,
iPads,
or
whatever
devices
you
have.
If
you
are
working
with
a
patient,
you
cannot
touch
those
kinds
of
stuff
because
you
are
contaminating
those
things
and
later
you
will
get
contaminated.
Ok?
So
you
have
to
avoid
contamination.
Remember
aseptic
technique.
This
is
a
very
unique
technique
which
people
use
in
the
microbiology
lab.
Transport
with
the
proper
records.
We
have
seen
multiple
times.
Especially
in
the
research
labs.
People
just
collect
the
samples
and
then
they
send
it
to
our
labs
and
there
are
no
records.
We
cannot
track
them
back.
We
dont
need
to
know
their
names
or
social
security
or
phone
numbers.
Thats
okay
for
the
administration
to
work
out.
But
at
least
we
need
the
medical
history.
And
I
know
that
in
the
labs
when
you
collect
samples
or
specimens
in
the
clinics,
they
come
with
all
these
bar
codes
so
now
it
is
more
and
more
protected.
But
in
old
days,
a
lot
of
these
problems
came
about.
grow,
multiply,
based
upon
their
microbial
growth
or
whatever
growth
period
they
have.
Within
24
hours,
they
will
make
a
colony.
That
colony
has
9-10
days
to
make
the
same
kind
of
microorganism
of
the
same
strain.
And
that
is
pure
culture.
We
need
to
have
a
pure
culture
to
make
a
diagnosis
or
classification
of
a
bacteria.
Slide
7-Laboratory
Analysis
There
are
non-cultural
methods.
These
were
like
a
cultured
method,
how
you
can
grow
them
(referring
to
previous
slide).
In
the
oral
cavity,
fifty
percent
of
microorganisms
are
non
culturable.
Non
culturable,
we
can
call
it
today,
but
in
my
opinion,
we
dont
have
at
this
time,
ways
to
grow
them
so
we
classify
them
as
non-
culturables.
We
dont
have
a
specific
media
to
grow
those
microorganisms.
Now,
I
told
you
before
that
each
person
can
have
300
different
microbial
species
in
their
mouth
or
there
are
over
700
microbial
species
present.
If
you
consider
that
you
cannot
grow
50%
of
them,
then
we
dont
even
know
which
organisms
are
associated
with
disease,
right?
We
dont
even
know
50%
of
them.
TO
find
out
and
study
the
non
culturable
microorganisms,
the
DNA
and
RNA
studies
are
very
important.
If
the
microorganism
is
present
in
the
saliva,
the
DNA
of
the
microorganism
will
be
there
because
there
is
autolysis
and
all
that
stuff.
DNA
will
be
there.
We
use
that
DNA
to
identify
specific
microorganisms.
How
we
can
do
that?
By
using
DNA
and
RNA
probes.
Then
there
are
immunological
methods.
These
are
used
in
the
clinics
very
regularly.
The
best
example
is
the
triponema,
syphilis,
all
those
sexually
transmitted
diseases
are
generally
identified
using
the
immunological
method.
Slide
8-Microorganisms
exist
in
nature
as
mixed
populations
How
can
you
separate
a
particular
bacterium
that
is
responsible
for
an
infection
out
of
100s
of
microorganisms
that
are
present
there?
Thats
exactly
what
it
is
here.
Hundreds
and
hundreds
of
microorganisms.
Slide
9-Obtaining
pure
cultures
Obtaining
the
pure
culture.
So
if
you
are
collecting
something
that
from
here,
it
has
10^8
or
10^9
microorganisms
there.
In
that
there
will
be
hundreds
of
different
species.
How
do
you
get
a
single
colony
here?
This
is
a
pure
culture
and
single
colony.
When
you
are
doing
a
streak
plate
method,
you
are
streaking
on
this
and
one
bacteria
will
grow
into
this
big
colony
which
you
can
visualize
by
normal
eyes.
But
from
here,
we
can
pick
this
colony,
which
has
hundreds
of
microorganisms
of
the
same
strain.
We
can
do
staining,
biochemical
tests,
genomic
tests,
we
can
do
a
lot
of
tests
to
do
a
confirmed
identification
and
classification
of
bacterial
species.
There
are
2
methods.
Streak
plate
method
for
isolation
and
we
can
use
a
specialized
media
to
enrich
the
microorganism
that
we
are
interested
in.
Slide
10-Streaking
for
Isolation
The
most
common
way
of
separating
bacterial
cells
on
a
solid
media
surface
to
obtain
isolated
colonies.
Ok?
This
is
just
an
animation
to
show
how
you
can
do
streaking
to
isolate
a
single
colony.
This
is
your
petri
dish.
Most
of
you
must
have
seen
it.
It
has
a
specific
media
on
that.
Then,
form
your
specimen,
whatever
specimen
you
have,
you
take
a
loop
full
of
the
specimen
and
streak
on
a
plate
in
one
direction.
And
then,
you
have
to
sterile
your
loop.
Sterile
means
there
is
the
flame
with
the
Bunsen
burner.
The
wire
loop
which
you
use
to
streak
should
be
heated
up
in
such
a
way
that
all
the
microorganisms
on
that
loop
should
be
killed.
Then
you
take
a
little
bit
of
specimen
from
here
and
then
streak
it
on
the
other
side.
Now
what
is
happening
if
you
have
here
high
density,
after
doing
the
sterilization
of
loop,
you
are
taking
a
little
from
here
and
streaking.
This
is
a
dilution
kind
of
a
thing
and
then
you
are
isolating
again.
Keep
doing
that
4
ways,
generally
it
is
also
called
the
4
flame
method
because
you
are
flaming
the
wire
loop
4
times.
And
then
in
the
center,
you
streak
it
by
making
a
curve.
If
this
is
done
properly,
it
will
look
something
like
this.
This
is
the
highly
dense
area,
which
is
this
one.
And
the
diluted
one,
and
then
in
the
center
you
will
get
isolated
colonies.
This
single
isolated
colony
is
a
pure
culture.
From
any
clinical
specimen,
if
you
are
good
in
doing
this
technique,
you
can
isolate
many
different
microorganisms.
Here,
this
is
a
mixed
population.
If
you
see,
there
are
yellow
colonies,
white
colonies,
small
colonies,
big
colonies
and
all
that
stuff.
If
this
is
a
polymicrobial
culture,
you
can
still
get
isolated
colonies
after
streaking
here
and
here.
You
can
easily
pick
these
colonies
and
again
do
the
same
streaking
and
again
you
will
get
the
same
colonies.
Slide
11-Methods
used
to
obtain
pure
bacterial
cultures
So
these
two
techniques,
aseptic
techniques,
where
you
have
to
transfer
all
the
specimens
in
a
sterile
condition.
Avoid
contamination.
Then
this,
using
the
streaking
method,
or
an
isolation
plate,
you
can
easily
identify
bacterial
species
from
any
given
polymicrobial
specimen.
The
other
way
to
do
it
from
streaking
is
this
called
diluted
samples.
You
can
do
serial
dilutions
the
way
you
do
dilutions
in
chemistry.
Take
the
original
specimen,
do
a
dilution.
1/100,
1/1000,
1/10,000
dilutions.
You
take
the
dilutions
from
there
and
you
spread
it
on
a
plate
with
a
spreader
and
you
get
single
colonies
from
there.
Any
way,
whether
you
do
an
isolation
plate
or
you
do
streaking,
you
will
get
single
isolated
colonies.
Slide
12-Methods
used
to
obtain
pure
bacterial
cultures
Once
you
have
these
single
isolated
colonies,
you
can
streak
it
again
and
get
a
perfect
pure
culture.
Now
this
is
enough
to
do
any
kind
of
work
in
your
lab.
Then,
you
can
go
into
identification
from
here.
You
can
do
bacterial
staining
and
see
whether
it
is
gram
positive
or
gram
negative,
or
acid-fast,
you
can
identify
from
there.
Slide
13-
Use
of
specialized
Media
Ok.
Use
of
specialized
media.
In
the
oral
cavity
like
I
said,
there
are
a
number
of
microorganisms
present.
Our
example
is
streptococcus
mutans.
If
you
know
streptococcus
mutans
what
it
is
and
what
it
does.
It
has
a
glucose
transferase
gene.
When
the
fermentable
sugars
are
present,
the
gene
will
get
activated
and
they
will
produce
large
amounts
of
polysaccharide
or
glucain
and
it
becomes
sticky
and
all
that
stuff.
That
is
how
it
sticks
to
the
tooth
surface
and
it
causes
dental
caries
and
all
that
stuff.
If
you
want
to
isolate
streptococcus
mutans
from
there,
so
much
work
has
been
done
on
that
so
we
know
there
are
special
media.
That
means
there
are
selective
media.
In
this
selective
media,
there
are
certain
chemicals
added.
Either
to
support
the
growth
of
one
organism
or
inhibit
the
growth
of
lots
of
other
organisms.
We
can
enrich
it.
Streptococcus
mutans
are
resistant
to
bacitracin
which
is
an
antibiotic
so
if
you
add
bacitracin
into
the
medium,
most
of
the
time,
you
will
see
streptococcus
mutans
growing
because
all
other
microorganisms
will
be
inhibited.
Thats
a
selective
media.
Differential
media
is
when
you
take
a
chemical
or
a
carbohydrate
into
the
media,
and
you
have
polymicrobial
specimen.
You
then
streak
it
on
a
plate
and
if
one
of
the
organisms
can
utilize
that
carbohydrate
or
chemical,
it
will
produce
colonies
in
a
different
fashion
or
it
will
produce
a
pigment
and
the
other
will
not.
Immediately
you
will
know
it
is
a
differential
step
because
it
is
fermenting.
Based
upon
the
fermentation,
the
metabolism,
which
Dr.
Boylan
must
have
covered.
Not
all
microorganisms
can
utilize
all
the
sugars,
right?
Like
lactose.
Some
organisms
can
use
lactose
and
some
cannot.
The
organism
which
can
produce
lactose
will
produce
different
colonies
and
those
that
cannot
produce
lactose
will
produce
different
colonies
and
thats
how
you
can
differentiate
and
you
can
use
differential
media.
Enrichment
media
can
be
a
combination
of
selective
media
with
antibiotics.
So
you
are
enriching
a
specific
kind
of
microorganism
in
that.
Then
this
is
a
very
nice
example
here.
It
is
called
EMB
again.
Eosin
Methylene
Blue
agar,
just
one
example.
It
is
a
combination
of
selective
and
differential
media.
If
you
see
here,
this
produces
this
green
sheen
color
colonies
on
that.
Now,
this
media
has
methylene
blue.
Which
inhibits
lots
of
other
microorganisms.
And
then
it
has
lactose
as
a
carbohydrate.
The
bacteria
like
E.
coli
which
can
utilize
lactose
and
can
survive
methylene
blue
will
produce
this
kind
of
green
colonies
on
this
petri
dish,
this
plate.
This
is
a
very
nice
example
of
differential
and
selective
media.
It
is
also
called
combination
selective
plates.
The
example
is
EMB
agar
plates.
There
are
many
more
examples,
if
you
go
to
the
book.
There
are
MacKonkeys
agar.
Dr.
Boylan
must
have
talked
to
you
about
MacKonkeys
agar.
There
are
other
examples,
it
is
used
for
Streptococcus
mutans
is
MSB
media
which
has
bacitracin
in
it.
Slide
14-Selective
Media
So
what
are
the
selective
medias?
There
are
different
kinds
of
selective
medias.
The
best
is
chemical
defined.
It
permits
the
growth
of
most
cells
of
the
sought
after
bacterial
species.
That
is
how
we
define.
You
add
a
certain
chemical.
Starting
low
pH.
This
is
interesting
because
most
microorganisms
want
to
grow
at
neutral
pH.
But
some
of
the
bacteria
that
are
present
in
the
oral
cavity
like
aciduric
bacteria,
like
lactobacillus
and
some
species
of
streptococcus
mutans.
They
love
to
grow
at
a
low
pH
close
to
6
or
5.
Some
of
the
bacteria
grow
at
3
and
4
pH.
Now
that
is
low
starting
pH
that
allows
only
the
growth
of
aciduric
bacteria
involved
in
the
decalcification
process.
That
is
very
selective
because
other
organisms
will
be
killed
because
of
the
acidic
nature
of
the
media.
Right?
Then
antibiotic
containing
media
inhibits
the
growth
of
all
or
most
organisms
except
for
the
one
we
are
interested
in.
Like
I
talked
about
the
media
MSB
media
for
streptococcus
mutans,
which
has
bacitracin.
It
is
most
useful
when
the
desired
organism
is
present
in
low
number,
like
specifically
in
the
plaque
samples
which
has
streptococcus
mutans.
You
want
to
enrich
them.
You
use
this
antibiotically
defined
media
and
then
you
can
get
large
number
of
that
microorganism.
microbiology
lab.
It
has
a
light
source,
stage,
condenser,
two
lens
system
and
is
a
very
nice
microscope.
Slide
18-Bright-Field
Microscopy
Now
this
is
a
bright-field
microscope,
which
is
now
available.
Do
you
see
how
complicated
this
is?
Its
doing
the
same
thing
but
now
it
has
different
kinds
of
halogen
lamps,
different
light
source,
and
it
is
highly,
highly
complicated.
But
you
get
some
benefits
out
of
it.
You
have
a
better
contrast,
you
have
a
bright
background
and
all
that
stuff
using
this
complicated
microscope.
Slide
19-
Bright-Field
Microscopy
Oil
Immersion
This
is
oil
immersion.
Ok?
Why
do
you
use
oil?
If
you
see
here,
the
refractive
index.
The
refractive
index
is
the
way
that
the
transmission
of
light
is
being
explained
in
physics.
The
refractive
index
of
lens
is
1.5-2
and
the
refractive
index
of
oil
is
1.5-2,
the
refractive
index
of
slide
is
1.5-2
and
the
refractive
index
of
air
is
1.
So
when
you
are
using
a
high
magnification
and
the
light
has
to
pass
through
the
air,
if
there
is
no
oil
here,
the
image
is
distorted
because
of
different
refractive
index
so
scientists
have
developed
this
immersion
oil,
which
has
a
similar
kind
of
refractive
index.
So
now
the
image
is
seen
very
clearly
with
better
contrast
and
there
is
no
distortion
of
the
image.
Thats
why
oil
immersion
is
used.
This
is
a
simple
immersion,
100X.
The
limitations
of
bright
field
microscopes:
we
know
the
resolution
of
the
image
is
no
that
great
and
the
angle
of
the
light
entering
creates
a
bigger
problem.
Thats
why
we
use
oil.
We
cannot
visualize
viruses
from
there.
To
visualize
any
virus,
you
need
to
have
an
electron
microscope.
Slide
20-
Calibrated
Ocular
Micrometer
You
can
calibrate.
You
can
see
the
size
of
microorganisms
in
the
oil
immersion.
This
kind
of
scale
is
present
in
ocular
eyepieces
there.
If
you
see
each
of
these
units,
it
is
1
micrometer.
This
is
10
micrometers,
20
and
30.
Using
oil
immersion,
you
get
almost
1000X
and
you
can
visualize
the
size
of
the
microorganism.
This
is
streptococcus.
A
strep,
a
chain
of
coccus.
And
thats
a
streptococcus
here
and
you
can
see
that
1
cocci
is
almost
like
1
micrometer.
Slide
21-
Bacterial
Morphology
In
lab,
bacterial
morphology
may
be
examined
in
2
ways
by
observing
living
unstained
organisms.
Its
called
wet
mount.
By
observing
killed
strain,
its
called
heat
fixed
or
a
stained
specimen.
Now
we
have
a
bright
field
microscope,
we
have
single
isolated
bacteria
that
we
have
isolated
from
a
single
colony.
Now
we
want
to
see
it
under
the
microscope
but
to
have
a
better
contrast,
we
need
to
do
something
to
the
organism.
Slide
22-Bacterial
Stain
For
that,
we
do
bacterial
staining.
Ok?
To
visualize
bacteria
clearly
as
with
greater
contrast,
you
need
to
stain
it.
You
need
to
color
it,
ok?
So
you
can
see
it
in
great
details.
To
differentiate
and
categorize
various
morphological
types
according
to
the
staining
properties,
that
is
gram
negative
and
gram
positive
and
to
observe
certain
structures
such
as
capsules,
endospores,
flagellas
and
all
that
stuff,
you
need
to
do
staining.
Slide
23-Bacterial
Stain
So
what
are
bacterial
stains?
These
are
simple
dyes.
Ok?
Those
who
have
worked
in
the
cell
biology
lab
or
microbiology
lab
or
molecular
biology
lab,
or
you
must
have
done
in
undergraduate.
It
is
simple
staining:
crystal
violet,
methylene
blue,
eosin,
safranin,
all
those
are
dyes.
They
have
a
color
component
there.
Like
methylene
blue.
And
dissociate
water
into
a
positively
charged
methylene
blue
ion,
which
is
blue
in
color,
and
negatively
charged
chloride
ion,
which
is
colorless.
So
this
blue
part
will
stain
the
cells.
It
is
the
positively
charged
methylene
blue.
Why
will
it
stain
the
bacterial
cell?
The
cytoplasm
in
the
microorganisms
is
slightly
negatively
charged.
If
the
cytoplasm
is
negatively
charged,
you
use
a
positive
chain
that
is
blue
in
color,
opposites
attract.
Thats
the
reason
the
microorganism
is
stained
blue.
Slide
24-Bacterial
Stain
Its
also
called
basic
dye.
The
color
portion
lies
in
the
positive
ion,
thats
methylene
blue.
And
acid
dye,
which
we
can
also
call
negative
dyes,
the
color
portion
is
in
the
negative
ions.
Some
examples
are
nigrosin
and
congo
red.
Slide
25-Bacterial
Stain
Now
this
is
an
example
here.
If
the
cytoplasm
is
negatively
charged,
you
use
a
positive
dye.
The
whole
organism
will
be
colored.
But
if
you
are
using
a
negatively
charged
dye,
like
congo
red,
nigrosin,
and
those
kind
of
stuff.
What
will
happen?
The
cytoplasm
is
negative,
the
dye
is
also
negative
and
they
repel
each
other.
The
specimen
or
the
bacteria
will
not
get
stained.
The
surrounding
will
get
stained.
Thats
called
indirect
staining.
Direct
staining
is
when
the
bacteria
gets
stained
or
colored.
In
indirect,
the
surrounding
gets
colored.
You
see
a
clear
specimen
in
a
dark
background.
Ok?
Slide
26-Bacterial
Cell
Wall
Once
we
have
the
dye,
we
know
that
the
microorganisms
can
be
divided
into
gram
positive
and
gram
negative,
right?
This
property
is
uniquely
based
upon
of
the
content
of
the
cell
wall
of
the
microorganism.
What
are
gram
positives
and
what
are
gram
negatives?
If
you
see
here,
the
structure
of
a
gram
positive
cell
wall.
This
is
generally
seen
in
the
electron
microscope.
The
gram
positive
bacteria
has
large
amounts
of
peptidoglycan.
Multiple
layers
of
peptidoglycan.
One,
two,
three,
four,
and
five.
In
this
peptidoglycan,
they
have
different
amounts
of
lipoteichoic
acids,
teichoic
acids,
surface
proteins,
and
thats
how
all
antigens
and
characters
are
based.
For
this
gram
staining,
what
we
are
concerned
with
most
is
the
peptidoglycan.
So
when
Dr.
Boylan
covered
metabolism,
he
must
have
covered
how
the
peptidoglycan
is
being
synthesized.
In
gram
positive,
you
have
high
amounts
of
peptidoglycan
and
then
you
have
a
cytoplasmic
membrane.
Whereas
if
you
see
in
the
gram
negative
cell
walls,
you
have
an
outer
membrane,
you
have
a
very
thin
layer
of
peptidoglycan
and
then
you
have
a
cytoplasmic
membrane,
same
as
like
this.
So
here,
there
are
only
two
layers
of
peptidoglycan.
Here
there
are
more
than
5
or
6
layers
of
peptidoglycan,
and
then
you
have
this
outer
membrane
which
is
made
of
proteins
and
lipids,
lipoproteins
here.
It
has
LPS,
polysaccharides,
and
all
that
stuff
is
present
there.
This
is
the
major
different
between
gram
positive
and
gram
negative
bacterial
cells.
This
is
very
significant
in
understand
gram
positive
staining
and
gram
negative
staining.
Slide
27-Staining
Methods
So
here
when
you
are
doing
a
gram
staining,
to
look
at
these
microorganisms
under
the
microscope,
you
have
a
gram
positive
here.
Both
of
them
are
colorless.
You
use
the
crystal
violet,
which
is
a
positive
stain.
Everything
will
get
stained
in
both
gram
positive
and
gram
negative.
Then
you
use
an
iodine,
which
is
called
Grams
iodine.
Ok?
What
this
iodine
does
is
it
goes
and
interacts
with
crystal
violet
and
makes
a
very
tight
complex
inside
the
peptidoglycan.
Now
both
the
organisms,
gram
positive
and
gram
negative
look
purple.
Then
comes
the
differential
stage.
You
use
a
decolorizing
agent.
Its
called,
its
made
up
of
alcohol
and
acetone.
When
you
use
that,
what
happens
is
that
the
thick
layer
of
peptidoglycan
retains
the
purple
color.
In
the
case
of
gram
negative,
the
outer
membrane
which
is
covered
in
lipoproteins
and
lipids
get
solubilized
into
that
alcohol
and
acetone.
And
now
this
very
thin
layer
of
peptidoglycan
gets
exposed
and
because
its
exposed,
the
purple
color
is
not
retained.
The
purple
color
is
not
retained
and
it
becomes
decolorized,
same
as
like
this.
But
here,
it
is
retaining
that
purple
color
because
of
the
thick
peptidoglycan
layer.
Now
you
use
a
counterstain
again,
thats
a
positive
stain,
its
called
safranin
and
it
is
red
in
color.
Now
you
stain
it,
both
the
organisms
at
the
same
time.
This
will
not
retain
any
color
because
it
has
already
been
saturated
by
crystal
violet,
whereas
this
will
be
colorized
in
red.
Thats
how
you
differentiate
between
gram
positive
and
gram
negative
microorganisms.
Once
this
classification
is
done,
you
have
already
divided
microorganisms
into
two
different
categories.
Whether
the
organism
is
gram
positive
or
gram
negative.
This
technique
can
be
used
even
without
isolating
a
single
bacterial
cell.
If
you
have
somebody
that
has
a
serious
infection
in
the
clinic,
you
may
not
see
it,
but
generally
in
the
emergency
room.
If
somebody
comes
with
a
serious
cough
or
serious
stuff,
they
can
take
the
sputum
or
the
saliva
of
that
person
and
straight
away
go
and
do
the
gram
staining.
The
ratio
of
gram
positive
and
gram
negative
will
tell
them
what
kind
of
interaction
it
will
be
and
they
can
start
the
treatment
immediately
again
if
they
want
to.
Slide
28-Bacterial
Identification
This
is
how
you
will
see
a
gram
positive
cells
and
this
is
how
you
will
see
E.
coli
or
gram
negative.
If
it
is
a
mixed
species,
or
sorry
mixed
culture,
you
will
see
a
lightly
stained
pink
gram
negative
and
a
dark
stained
gram
positive
microorganisms.
Slide
29-Staining
Methods
There
are
different
kinds
of
staining
methods.
It
is
called
capsule
staining
procedures.
These
are
generally
used
to
stain
the
capsule
and
the
main
ingredient
here
is
malachite
green.
Where
is
it?
Anyway,
you
can
use
the
malachite
green
and
do
the
capsule
staining
or
the
endospore
staining.
In
capsule
staining,
sometimes
you
can
use
a
negative
stain
and
you
can
see
the
organism.
Slide
30-Capsule
Stain
These
are
the
capsule
staining
using
a
negative
stain.
The
bacterial
cells
are
not
stained
and
the
surrounding
is
colored.
Slide
31-Endospore
Staining
Endospore
staining.
This
is
generally
done
by
malachite
green.
Some
of
the
bacteria
or
the
bacillus
produced
produce
endospores.
Endospores
are
the
organs
or
the
system
generally
used
by
microorganisms
to
survive
in
extreme
environments.
If
there
is
no
food,
extreme
heat,
they
have
to
survive.
What
do
they
do?
They
produce
endospores.
Endospores
can
survive
in
an
environment
for
years.
At
this
stationary
phase,
when
you
see
the
microbial
growth.
From
the
stationary
phase,
to
the
death
phase,
they
start
producing
these
endospores.
These
endospores,
if
you
want
to
see
the
specimen
to
see
if
you
have
endospores
or
not,
you
have
to
do
a
malachite
green
or
endospore
staining.
This
is
clostridium
tetani,
which
you
will
see
in
infectious
diseases
in
November.
This
is
a
very
unique
pathogen.
It
has
racket
like
structures
and
they
have
terminal
spores.
You
can
use
endospore
staining
to
see
how
they
look.
This
is
Bacillus
anthracis,
a
very
beautiful
chain-like
structure
here.
You
see
like
these
bead-like
structures,
these
are
all
endospores.
Slide
32-
The
Acid-Fast
Stain
Acid
fast
stain.
So
I
said
90%
of
microorganisms
can
be
stained
and
classified
into
gram
positive
or
gram
negative.
Some
of
the
microorganisms
cannot
be
classified
by
doing
gram
staining
because
they
have
very
unique
properties.
The
examples
are
Mycobacterium
or
Nocardia.
Those
microorganisms
have
a
very
thick,
waxy
substance
over
their
cell
wall.
They
have
a
high
amount
of
glycolipids
and
mycolic
acids.
Because
of
that,
these
organisms
cannot
be
differentiated
by
using
gram
staining.
So
then,
people
do
acid
fast
staining.
Acid
fast
means
they
cannot
be
decolorized
by
acid
fast
treatment.
It
resists
decolorization
so
it
remains
stained
red.
The
stain
here
is
carbol
fuchsin.
Just
remember
the
staining
and
the
acid
fast
is
used
for
which
organism.
Last
year
there
was
a
question
to
identify
mycobacterium
or
differentiate
mycobacterium
from
other
bacterial
species,
what
kind
of
staining
you
are
going
to
use?
The
answer
is
acid
fast
staining.
There
was
a
question
on
the
boards,
same
kind
of
question.
To
differentiate
mycobacterium,
what
stain
are
you
going
to
use?
ACID-FAST
STAINING.
Here,
if
you
see
here,
this
is
acid
fast
staining.
This
is
from
a
sputum
or
saliva
sample
from
a
patient.
You
will
see
this
red
or
filamentous
thing
and
those
are
the
mycobacterium.
Slide
33-Dark-Field
Microscopy
Ok.
Dark-field
microscope
is
only
important
to
see
a
very
thin
specimen.
Ok?
It
has
a
special
condenser
and
the
light
source
doesnt
directly
illuminate
the
specimen.
It
passes
from
the
side
of
the
specimen.
It
is
a
very
unique
microscope
that
is
only
important
when
you
are
visualizing
a
very
thin
microorganism
like
spirochetes.
Slide
34-
Dark-Field
Microscopy
Here
you
have
a
condenser
lens
that
has
been
specially
put
here.
And
then
the
light
passes
through
here,
and
this
is
your
stage
specimen.
It
doesnt
pass
through
the
specimen,
it
passes
from
the
sides.
So
you
will
see
a
bright
specimen
with
a
dark
background.
Slide
35-Dark-Field
Microscopy
The
resolving
power
is
significantly
improved
in
this
compared
with
bright
field
microscopy.
You
can
see
the
specimen
which
are
very
thin
and
the
disadvantage
is
you
cannot
see
the
internal
structures,
cannot
be
studied
with
a
dark-field
microscope.
Ok?
The
thing
which
you
have
to
remember,
in
this,
is
why
do
we
use
dark-field
microscopes?
To
study
thin
microorganisms.
What
are
the
thin
microorganisms?
Spirochetes.
Ok?
Slide
36-
Dark
Field
Microscopy
of
Spirochetes
These
are
spirochetes
and
this
is
a
dark
field
microscopy.
You
can
see
here
and
this
is
a
very
unique
microorganism
that
we
will
see
in
the
next
lecture
hour
or
so.
Slide
37-
Phase-contrast
Microscopy
Phase
Contrast
Microscopy,
we
can
skip
it.
Let
it
go.(Dr.
Saxena
then
skips
a
bunch
of
slides
on
the
powerpoint).
Slide
38-Electron
Microscope
(41)
Electron
microscope.
Ok,
this
is
important
because
when
you
study
the
biofilms,
oral
biofilms.
Sometimes
you
want
to
study
the
real
oral
biofilms,
how
they
are
connected
to
each
other,
how
the
cells
are
connected
to
each
other,
and
a
lot
of
things
you
can
do
with
an
electron
microscope.
You
can
use
an
environmental
microscope
where
you
can
use
a
real
specimen,
wet
specimen,
to
see
in
detail
what
it
is
and
how
it
looks.
And
here,
you
dont
have
lens
and
all
that
stuff.
These
are
made
up
of
magnetic
coils,
and
you
have
electronic
beam
passing
through
it.
It
gives
very
good
magnification.
The
magnification
can
be
improved.
You
can
see
a
specimen
that
is
0.001
micrometer,
which
can
be
easily
seen.
There
are
2
different
kinds
of
electron
microscopes
typically
used.
I
think
we
have
here,
both
of
them.
Transmission
electron
microscope
and
scanning
electron
microscope,
ok?
Slide
39-
Electron
Microscopy
(42)
In
the
transmission
electron
microscope,
it
works
exactly
the
way
the
slide
projector
works.
So,
if
you
have
a
specimen
and
that
is
like
a
slide,
any
object
on
a
slide.
The
light
passes
through
it
and
you
can
see
an
image.
Whereas
in
the
scanning
electron
microscope,
you
can
see
the
surface
and
the
texture
of
the
microorganisms,
it
bombards
the
electrons
on
the
surface
in
a
zigzag
fashion
and
the
image
is
formed
on
the
surface
of
the
microorganism.
The
transmission
and
scanning,
they
both
have
different
function.
But
they
are
both
important
to
the
clinical
microbiology.
Slide
40-
Electron
Microscopy
(43)
This
is
a
typical
biofilm
here.
This
is
what
you
see
in
100X
like
in
a
bright
field
microscope,
1000X,
again
if
you
are
using
an
oil
immersion
you
can
see
it.
But
if
you
go
beyond
that,
you
see
the
cells.
You
can
see
how
they
are,
how
they
are
connected
to
each
other.
These
are
different
kinds
of
cells
here.
These
are
bacilli
and
oval
shaped
structure.
And
you
can
really
see
the
cell
and
the
real
community
in
the
oral
cavity
by
using
SEM
scanning.
Slide
41-
Electron
Microscopy
(44)
This
is
just
a
comparison.
If
you
see
TEM,
transmission
electron
microscope,
you
can
see
what
is
inside,
what
is
the
cell
wall
made
up
of,
how
the
cell
division
is
happening,
what
are
the
chromosomes
and
divisions
that
are
happening
inside
the
cells.
If
you
see
the
scanning,
you
can
see
the
outer
surface,
exactly
how
they
look.
Slide
42-
Microscopes
Summary
(45)
This
slide
is
just
a
comparison
of
all
of
them.
You
can
go
through
it.
It
is
good
for
an
exam
point
of
view.
Slide
43-
Summary
Staining
(46)
And
this
is
the
staining
properties
again.
Slide
44-Summary
(47)
And
ok,
do
you
want
to
take
a
break
for
a
few
minutes?
And
then
we
will
start
this.
Any
questions?
You
can
come
here,
you
can

Slide
45-
Bacterial
Classification
and
Microbial
Growth
Slide
46-
Microbial
Metabolism
and
Growth
(48)
Okay.
So
in
the
first
hour
we
saw
some
of
the
tools
which
can
be
used
for
identifications
and
classifications
of
microorganisms.
How
you
can
grow
them,
how
you
can
get
single
colonies,
how
you
can
use
the
microscopes,
what
kind
of
staining
can
be
done,
and
all
that
stuff.
Its
very
basic
and
fundamental
microbiology.
Now,
once
you
have
a
single
isolated
colony,
what
can
you
do
to
find
out
what
are
these
microorganisms?
If
they
stain
gram
positive,
and
you
look
under
the
microscope,
you
will
see
a
specific
structure
there.
You
can
see
if
they
have
flagella,
they
have
endospores,
and
all
that
stuff,
right?
Now
we
have
to
classify
them.
Classification
is
based
on
identifications
and
similarities.
There
is
a
field
called
taxonomy
is
science.
This
field
is
generally
being
used
to
categorize
all
the
living
beings.
Which
phylum,
class,
genus,
species
we
are.
Most
of
the
living
beings
or
the
living
structures
have
been
classified
into
some
kind
of
a
group
or
a
class
or
a
species
or
genuses.
So
before
we
do
that,
we
need
to
understand
some
of
the
microbial
metabolism
and
their
growth.
So
metabolism
is
I
think
covered
by
Dr.
Boylan
in
the
previous
2
lectures
or
something
like
that.
What
I
am
going
to
do
is
very
briefly
cover
the
growth
curve
of
microorganisms
which
is
very
important
or
the
growth
cycle
of
microorganisms.
Slide
47-
Metabolic
Requirements
(88)
So
whenever
the
microorganism
or
the
living
being
or
the
living
structure
or
the
living
organism
has
to
multiple.
Why
do
they
multiply?
They
multiply
to
survive,
right?
They
also
multiply
to
produce
or
reproduce.
And
then,
to
do
that,
they
require
a
carbon
and
nitrogen.
They
require
an
energy
source,
they
require
water,
and
they
require
various
kinds
of
inorganic
salts,
organic
stuff,
and
all
that
stuff,
right?
So
all
those
stuff
combine
as
nutrients
for
the
microorganisms
which
have
all
this
stuff.
Slide
48-
Essential
Elements
(90)
Now,
this
is
a
Patrick
Murase
book
which
is
on
Vitalbook.
And
you
can
see
how
many
different
kinds
of
elements
and
cofactors
and
stuff
are
required
for
microorganisms
to
grow
and
multiply.
If
anybody
has
free
time,
they
can
go
and
memorize
this
table.
Slide
49-Prokaryotic
Reproduction
(91)
Prokaryotic
reproduction.
Here
if
you
see
this,
most
prokaryotes
reproduce
by
binary
fission
and
cells
double
in
mass.
At
any
given
time,
if
you
have
2
bacterial
cells,
in
the
germination
time.
Germination
time
is
the
time
required
for
bacterial
cells
to
double.
It
is
called
doubling
time
or
germination
time.
There
are
different
ways
we
can
call
it.
The
cells
double
in
mass,
so
if
you
have
2
bacterial
cells,
within
20
minutes,
if
their
doubling
time
is
twenty
minutes,
these
2
cells
will
become
4
and
in
the
next
twenty
minutes,
they
will
become
8,
16,
and
you
keep
on
going
on.
Thats
how
microorganisms
do,
they
just
double
at
a
specific
doubling
cycle.
So
if
you
have
2
or
4
microorganisms,
then
by
tomorrow
at
the
same
time,
they
will
be
in
the
billions
and
trillions.
How
do
they
divide?
They
have
a
cell
wall,
a
plasma
membrane,
and
a
DNA
molecule.
The
DNA
molecule
has
to
replicate.
And
again,
it
was
done
by
Dr.
Boylan,
how
the
DNA
replication
takes
place.
And
once
the
DNA
replication
has
happened,
then
the
division
or
the
cell
wall
and
plasma
membrane
begins
to
divide
the
bacterial
cells
also.
Once
that
happens,
it
will
divide
into
2
bacterial
cells
and
it
will
have
the
same
number
of
DNA
copies
that
was
present
in
the
parent
cell
and
you
have
2
daughter
cells.
Now
they
separate
and
the
cycle
starts
again.
This
whole
process
in
most
of
the
microorganisms
takes
15-20
minutes.
Ok?
Now
in
that
15-20
minutes,
the
DNA
is
being
replicated
and
they
are
using
all
the
metabolic
requirements,
all
the
iron
and
minerals
and
everything.
They
produce
the
2
strands
of
DNA,
which
replicates
and
separates
out.
The
septum
formation
starts
and
2
daughter
cells
are
produced.
This
is
the
whole
process
of
bacterial
division.
Once
this
division
is
happening,
it
can
happen
in
a
very
slow
fashion,
which
is
called
a
lag
phase.
And
then
there
is
a
log
phase
in
the
bacterial
cycle
when
these
cells
are
multiplying
in
a
faster
phase.
And
we
can
have
the
bacterial
growth
in
a
much
faster
way.
Slide
50-No
Title
(92)
So
if
you
see
here,
this
chart,
this
is
from
a
book.
This
phase
of
any
microorganism,
the
first
few
hours
of
their
life
is
called
the
LAG
phase.
The
lag
phase
is
the
time
when
microorganisms
are
trying
to
adjust
to
the
environment
to
which
they
have
been
added
to.
They
will
find
out
what
are
the
food
stuff
present
here?
What
is
the
food?
Can
I
eat
this?
Stuff
which
is
harmful
for
them,
they
will
find
out
there.
They
are
trying
to
adjust
to
the
environment
here.
Then,
after
a
certain
period
of
time,
this
is
called
the
log
phase.
There
is
an
exponential
growth
of
the
microorganisms
and
this
is
an
exponential
growth
phase.
Now,
if
you
are
having
here,
zero
time,
you
have
one
bacterial
cell
and
by
this
hour
like
7
hours,
the
number
of
bacterial
cells
in
any
given
suspension.
That
is
bacterial
growth.
They
grow
in
such
a
high
fashion.
Now
the
germination
or
doubling
time
is
the
interval
of
time
between
successive
binary
fission.
Some
have
20
minutes,
some
have
40
minutes.
Some
of
the
microorganisms
like
triponema
or
spirochetes
have
doubling
time
of
16
hours
but
most
of
the
organisms
like
E.
coli
and
all
that
have
a
doubling
time
of
20
minutes.
In
pathogens,
a
shorter
doubling
time
means
a
shorter
incubation
period
of
disease.
Remember
this:
if
you
have
a
pathogen
and
it
has
a
shorter
doubling
time,
that
means
they
can
produce
a
large
number
of
their
organisms
in
a
very
short
period
of
time.
That
means
the
incubation
time
for
a
disease
is
very
short.
So
you
will
start
seeing
clinical
symptoms
of
infection
very
quickly.
Slide
51-
Bacterial
Growth
(93)
If
you
see
here,
this
is
a
typical
example
of
how
E.
coli
can
germinate
in
20
minutes
when
you
can
start
with
a
specific
number
of
cells.
If
you
see
here,
the
equation
here.
In
this
you
have
the
total
number
of
bacterial
cells,
which
is
N
(zero)
here,
how
many
cycles,
if
there
will
be
6
cycles.
And
thats
the
value
here.
If
you
put
all
the
values,
this
is
simple
math,
if
you
put
all
the
values
here
then
you
will
know
how
many
bacteria
will
be
present
after
a
specific
period
of
time.
Slide
52-
Phases
of
Bacterial
Growth
(94)
This
is
a
growth
curve
of
microorganisms.
Again,
this
is
the
lag
phase,
when
the
bacteria
is
adjusting
to
the
environment.
Then,
you
have
the
log
phase.
Then
you
have
a
stationary
phase.
In
this
stationary
phase,
most
of
the
microorganisms
have
already
utilized
most
of
the
resources
that
are
present
in
the
medium.
Now,
they
are
dying,
or
they
are
trying
to
survive
by
producing
endospores
in
this
phase.
And
then
there
is
the
death
phase
or
the
decline
phase,
where
most
of
the
microorganisms
start
dying.
Why?
Because
there
is
a
toxic
waste
that
may
be
produced
into
the
medium
OR,
there
may
be
certain
things
like
there
are
no
nutrients
lift,
maybe
the
temperature
isnt
favorable,
maybe
there
is
no
carbohydrate
left
in
the
media.
And
now,
the
living
cells,
the
live
bacterial
cells
will
be
less
than
the
dead
cells.
Here,
it
is
your
inoculum,
the
cells
that
you
have
inoculated.
Here,
the
live
cells
are
in
much
higher
number
than
the
dead
cells.
Here,
the
live
and
dead
cells
are
equal.
In
this
phase,
the
living
cells
are
much
less
as
compared
to
the
dead
cells
Slide
53-
Growth
curve
of
bacteria
(95)
Again,
same
thing
here.
Same
growth
curve.
You
have
a
lag
phase,
then
exponential
or
a
log
phase,
then
you
have
a
stationary
phase,
then
you
have
a
decline.
If
you
see
here,
there
are
very
few
cells.
More
of
the
live
cells,
less
of
the
dead
cells.
Same
here
at
the
end,
you
have
more
dead
cells
and
very
less
of
live
cells.
This
is
the
typical
bacterial
growth
curve.
And
if
I
give
you
an
exam
of
mark
A,
B,
C,
or
D,
of
this
growth
curve,
you
should
be
knowing
it.
Right?
This
is
in
the
lag
phase,
log
phase,
stationary,
and
death
phase.
Ok?
Slide
54-
Bacterial
Classification
(96)
So
once
we
have
the
cells
we
saw,
we
have
the
microscopes,
we
have
staining
properties,
we
have
the
media
in
which
we
can
grow,
we
know
the
doubling
time.
And
now
we
want
to
classify
them.
If
you
see
under
the
microscope,
we
see
elongated
cells,
we
see
circular
cells,
we
see
a
bunch
of
cells
together,
we
see
a
chain
of
microorganisms.
What
does
this
all
mean
to
us?
Thats
how
we
are
going
to
see
the
net
few
slides.
How
can
we
use
different
methods
to
classify
these
microorganisms?
Slide
55-Cataloging
Microorganisms
(49)
Okay.
The
first
classification
was
given
here
if
you
see
in
17th
century.
And
until
that
time,
there
was
no
classification
there.
They
didnt
even
really
know
how
to
classify
the
human:
which
class,
which
phylum,
genus
we
are
present?
The
first
classification
was
given
in
this
year
okay?
Slide
56-Cataloging
Microorganisms
(52)
Here,
something
is
important
because
this
is
a
microbiology
class.
If
nobody
has
told
you,
I
should
tell
you
that
in
each
name,
there
are
2
words.
1
is
representing
the
genus,
the
other
is
representing
a
species.
Now,
in
most
microorganisms,
if
you
see
there
are
2
names,
and
at
the
end
there
is
a
subtype
or
a
subspecies.
Lets
take
the
example
of
streptococcus
mutans.
Streptococcus
is
the
genus.
Why?
Because
it
is
a
strep
of
coccus,
we
will
see
in
detail
why
it
is
called
streptococcus.
And
then,
at
the
end,
it
ends
in
mutans.
Streptococcus
mutans.
Thats
the
scientific
name
of
the
caries
causing
organism.
Streptococcus
mutans.
Mutans
is
the
species.
The
name
of
the
species
is
given
based
on
the
metabolic
properties
of
the
organism
or
the
type
of
disease
they
cause.
Or
from
the
place
where
they
have
been
isolated,
something
like
that.
Take
the
next
example.
Mycobacterium
tuberculosis.
Mycobacterium
is
the
genus
and
tuberculosis
is
the
disease
so
that
becomes
the
species.
So
the
organism
is
called
mycobacterium
tuberculosis.
The
other
example
is
Bacillus
anthraciis.
Bacillus
is
the
genus
and
the
last
one,
anthrax,
is
the
disease.
Thats
why
it
is
given
the
name
Bacillus
anthraciis.
Thats
how
all
the
bacterial
names
have
been
classified.
The
first
one
is
the
genus
to
which
they
belong
and
then
you
have
the
species
which
is
based
upon
the
metabolite
or
the
disease
or
the
infections
they
cause.
Ok,
this
we
can
skip.
(skips

Slide
57-
No
Title
(53)
Ok.
The
first
and
the
most
accepted
3
domain
system
was
given
by
Carl
Woese
in
1971.
He
gave
this
3
domain
system
to
classify
all
the
living
beings.
And
in
that,
he
put
bacteria
and
archaea
and
prokaryotes
and
eukaryotes.
It
is
similar
to
the
old
classification,
but
he
put
in
place
of,
instead
of
having
prokaryotes
and
eukaryotes
as
the
2
domains,
he
made
it
3
domain.
In
prokaryotes,
he
divided
it
into
bacteria
and
archaea
and
then
you
have
eukaryotes.
Its
very
easy
to
differentiate
between
eukaryotes
and
prokaryotes.
Single
cell,
multiple
cell,
cell
wall,
cell
membrane,
there
are
lot
of
other
stuff
which
you
can
use
to
differentiate
which
you
have
studied
before.
In
this,
in
the
3
domains,
he
put
bacteria
and
eukarya,
and
archaea.
What
was
his
basis
of
this
classification?
Why
did
he
differentiate?
What
structures
did
he
base
this?
Slide
58-Three
Domain
System
(54)
Okay,
he
used
3
main
characteristics.
The
first
one
is
the
difference
in
the
sequences
of
nucleotides
in
the
cells
ribosomal
rRNAs
or
ribosomal
RNA.
If
you
see,
what
is
the
function
of
ribosomes?
Protein
synthesis.
If
you
see
in
bacteria,
if
you
see
in
fungi,
if
you
see
in
humans,
animals,
anywhere
you
go,
in
all
the
living
species,
ribosomes
are
responsible
for
protein
synthesis.
It
is
highly
conserved,
highly
protected.
So
any
changes
happening
in
that
will
be
very
drastic.
If
we
can
understand
the
sequence
of
this
rRNAs
in
different
groups,
we
can
easily
identify
what
are
the
differences.
Can
we
use
those
differences
to
classify?
He
used
that
and
he
made
this
3
domain
structure.
3
characteristics
based
on
rRNA.
The
cell
membranes
lipid
structures
and
sensitivity
to
antibiotics.
This
is
very
important.
Sensitivity
to
antibiotics.
But
this
is
very
simple.
Why
havent
people
thought
this
before
him?
The
bacteria
are
sensitive
to
a
specific
antibiotic.
Human
cells
are
sensitive
to
specific
antibiotics.
Prokaryotes
and
eukaryotes
have
different
sensitivity
pattern
to
antibiotics.
The
same
is
with
the
archaea.
He
used
that.
Then
cell
membranes,
lipid
structures.
Our
cells
have
different
structures,
and
bacterial
cells
have
peptidoglycan.
And
please
note,
archaea
DONT
have
peptidoglycan.
So
he
differentiated
archaea
and
bacteria
very
easily
because
bacteria
have
peptidoglycan
and
archaea
dont.
So
he
said
no,
they
are
not
they
same.
They
have
to
be
in
a
different
structure,
a
different
pool,
different
group.
Then,
he
used
the
antibiotics.
The
antibiotics
which
kill
bacteria
does
nothing
to
archaea.
So
he
said
oh
yeah,
they
are
different,
so
he
created
another
category.
Thats
how
he
used
the
3
domain
structures
and
he
used
these
3
characteristics:
rRNA
sequence,
cell
membrane
structures,
and
then
sensitivity
to
antibiotics
and
he
created
this
whole
new
classification
system.
Slide
59
(55)
We
can
skip
this.
Slide
60-Bacteria
who
are
they??
(56)
Okay.
What
are
the
bacteria?
They
are
single
cells,
prokaryotic
are
very
much
smaller
than
eukaryotic
cells.
They
are
very
much
complex
despite
their
size
and
they
can
be
distinguished
from
one
another
by
their
size,
shape,
staining
characteristics.
Thats
the
morphology.
Thats
the
phenotype.
The
way
they
look.
The
way
they
look,
we
can
classify.
We
use
this
kind
of
stuff
in
our
day
to
day
life.
How
a
person
looks?
We
can
easily
say,
this
person
is
from
Asia,
this
person
is
form
here.
The
way
they
look,
thats
how
we
classify
them.
Right?
Exactly.
The
way
you
see
under
the
microscope.
You
see
the
shape
and
size
and
the
properties
of
the
microorganisms,
you
can
classify
them.
This
belongs
to
this
group,
this
belongs
to
that
group.
Its
an
easy
way
of
classifying
things.
Slide
61-
Bacteria
on
human
epithelial
cells
from
the
mouth
(57)
Okay.
These
are
just
the
comparison
between
the
epithelial
cells
and
the
microorganisms.
The
size
comparisons.
You
can
see
that
one
mammalian
cell
can
be
infected
by
multiple
bacterial
cells.
Slide
62-
The
four
Major
Categories
of
bacteria
(58)
So
there
are
4
major
categories
of
bacteria.
It
is
gram
positive,
eubacteria
that
have
cell
walls.
50-90%
of
their
cell
wall
is
peptidoglycan.
Then
you
have
gram
negative
bacteria
which
have
an
outer
membrane
and
a
thin
layer
of
peptidoglycan.
The
other
one
is
eubacteria
lacking
cell
walls
that
are
called
mycoplasma.
There
was
a
question
about
this:
the
bacterial
cells
which
doesnt
have
a
cell
wall
is
known
as
mycoplasma.
Ok?
Remember
that.
Archaeobacteria,
terrestrial
and
aquatic
microbes
in
hypersaline
and
extreme
environments.
Now,
they
are
present
at
high
temperatures,
deep
in
the
ocean,
and
these
archea
are
totally
different
from
normal
bacteria.
The
3
characteristics:
their
rRNA
is
different,
their
antibiotic
patterns
are
different,
they
have
different
cell
walls
structures
and
they
can
survive
in
extreme
environmental
conditions.
Slide
63-Bacterial
Classification
(59)
Ok.
Any
of
this
can
be
used
to
classify
a
bacterial
cell.
Gram
staining,
yes,
thats
the
most
important
one.
Then
the
genome,
or
genotyping,
or
the
genetic
classification
of
microorganisms
can
be
based
upon
different
components
of
nucleic
acids
that
are
present
there.
The
ratio
of
nucleic
acids
that
are
present
there
can
be
classified.
Where
they
survive:
high
temperature,
low
temperature,
you
can
use
to
classify
them.
Ability
to
form
heat
stable
spores.
If
they
can
produce
endospores
which
can
survive
in
extreme
conditions
can
be
used
to
classify
microorganisms.
What
is
the
respiration,
what
is
the
requirement,
what
is
the
carbohydrates
and
nutrients
they
require?
Are
they
motile?
What
is
the
cell
shape?
Can
they
use
various
carbon
and
nitrogen
sources?
Does
it
require
special
nutrients?
Some
microorganism
cannot
be
cultivated
in
the
lab
on
normal
media.
You
need
to
provide
blood
with
it.
The
sheep
blood.
Ok?
So
thats
a
special
nutritional
requirement.
Slide
64-
Bacterial
Classification
(60)
When
youre
doing
a
classification
of
a
bacterial
species,
you
can
use
3
different
ways.
One
is
the
phenotypic
classification
which
is
once
again,
the
way
the
microorganism
looks.
The
shape
and
size
of
the
microorganism.
If
they
produce
any
flagella
or
cilia
or
anything
like
that.
You
can
use
to
classify
them.
If
you
have
a
microorganism
that
produces
a
pink
pigment
when
you
grow
them,
you
can
immediately
find
out
that
this
is
Frashia
(??sp?).
Streptococcus
mutans
produces
large
amounts
of
polysaccharide,
the
sticky
substance.
As
soon
as
you
grow
them
onto
the
glucose
or
sucrose
plates,
they
immediately
start
producing
the
polysaccharides,
so
you
can
immediately
make
out
that
it
is
Streptococcus
mutans.
Klebsiella
pneumonia,
which
is
present
in
most
of
the
hospitals,
that
organism
when
you
grow
on
the
petri
dish
produces
mucoid
colonies.
If
the
plate
has
10-15
colonies
of
Klebsiella
pneumonia,
the
next
day
by
the
time
you
come
in
the
lab,
half
of
the
plate
will
be
of
the
sticky
substance,
with
these
mucoid
colonies.
You
can
easily
do
phenotypic
classification
just
by
seeing
how
they
are,
how
the
colony
looks,
classification,
staining
properties,
and
all
that
stuff.
And
then
there
is
an
analytic
classification
where
you
can
use
different
kinds
of
proteins
which
are
present,
cell
membrane
structures,
lipid
content
of
the
cell
membrane.
Now
there
are
more
and
more
advanced
techniques
to
label
like
chromographic
techniques
which
you
can
use
to
find
out
what
is
present
in
the
cell
wall,
in
the
cytoplasm,
and
all
that
stuff.
Nobody
used
this
until
the
research
lab
today
to
do
classification.
People
used
phenotypic
classification.
Most
of
the
diagnostic
labs
use
phenotypic
classifications.
They
grow
it
in
different
medias,
they
see
how
it
looks,
they
do
biochemical
tests.
Whether
this
utilizes
citrate
positive,
catalyze
negative,
all
that
stuff
which
you
will
see
or
hear
in
the
next
few
lectures
can
be
used
in
phenotypic
classification.
People
use
it
in
regular
diagnostic
microbiology
lab.
The
field
which
is
gaining
tremendous
amount
of
interest
now
in
diagnostics
is
genotyping
or
genetic
classifications.
There
was
a
case,
I
love
giving
this
example
all
the
time,
there
was
a
case
of
a
drummer.
He
was
performing
in
Philadelphia
I
think
a
few
years
back
and
he
collapsed
on
the
stage
while
performing.
There
were
no
signs
or
symptoms
what
happened
to
him.
He
was
immediately
was
moved
to
the
hospital,
they
took
his
blood,
and
they
found
out
he
has
elongated
bacillus
with
endospores
immediately.
They
suspected
he
had
a
bacillus
anthrax
infection.
They
cannot
wait
for
doing
a
lot
of
tests
because
bacillus
anthrax,
if
you
dont
treat
it
immediately
will
kill
the
person,
and
it
was
in
his
lungs.
They
took
the
spinal
fluid,
lung
fluid
and
they
saw
light
cells
there.
Elongated
bacillus
with
endospores.
Immediately
they
thought
it
was
bacillus
anthrax.
Plus
he
has
clinical
symptoms.
What
they
did
is,
immediately,
they
did
the
genotyping
or
genetic
classification.
They
took
his
blood
and
take
the
specific
probes
for
bacillus
anthrax.
They
did
the
PCR,
which
is
polymerase
chain
reaction.
They
did
the
PCR,
they
got
the
positive
signal
within
45
minutes.
They
started
the
treatment
and
the
guy
survived.
If
they
couldnt
have
done
this,
it
would
take
2-3
days
to
make
a
confirmed
diagnosis
of
this
organism
and
by
that
time,
he
would
already
be
in
coma.
The
result
would
have
been
different.
Nowadays,
more
and
more
diagnostic
labs
are
trying
to
do
this
genotypic
classification
or
genotyping
of
microorganisms.
Slide
64-Bacterial
Classification
(61)
Ok.
Phenotype,
if
you
want
to
see
the
phenotypic
classification,
what
can
you
see?
You
can
see
the
microscopic
morphology,
you
can
see
macroscopic
morphology.
In
microscopy,
you
can
see
the
shape,
size,
arrangement,
and
gram
staining.
In
macroscopic,
you
can
see
hemolytic
properties,
pigmentations,
size
and
shape
of
colonies,
how
colonies
are
produced.
If
you
see
a
streptococcus
mutans
on
the
petri
dish
specifically
on
MSB
media,
you
will
see
colonies
are
like
grains
of
salt.
Sprinkled
grains
of
salt.
They
dig
inside
the
medium.
When
you
see
the
in
the
microscope,
these
colonies
dig
inside
the
medium.
Whereas
if
you
see
an
E.
coli
colony,
which
is
growing
on
the
surface.
Flat
surface,
big
colony,
pale
in
color,
you
can
easily
differentiate
based
on
the
colony
morphology.
Ok?
Then
the
biotyping.
Biotyping
is
the
fermentation
properties.
So
what
carbohydrates
or
sugars
can
they
use?
Like
streptococcus
mutans,
if
you
give
them
glucose,
sucrose,
they
are
happy.
Right?
You
can
immediately
make
out.
Like
catalase
test,
all
those
stuff
can
easily
be
done
by
doing
biotyping
and
easily
be
used
for
phenotypic
classification.
And
then
serotyping.
Antibodies,
antigen
reactions
can
easily
be
used
to
identify
subspecies.
The
best
example
for
this,
how
the
serotyping
became
famous.
For
salmonella
and
typhi,
it
was
very
difficult
to
identify.
For
salmonella
typhi,
the
causative
agent
for
typhoid
fever.
But
by
doing
serotyping,
they
can
easily
find
out
the
subspecies
of
salmonella
typhi
and
immediately
start
treatment.
And
this
takes
like
15-20
minutes
to
get
it
done.
Not
all
the
tests
are
based
upon
serotyping.
Some
are
very
well
developed,
some
of
them
are
not
developed
at
all.
Slide
65-Bacterial
Classification
(62)
Ok.
Then
comes
the
analytic
classification
by
using
different
chromatographic
methods.
You
can
check
cell
walls
for
fatty
acids,
different
compositions
of
cell
walls,
proteins,
and
you
can
do
multi
locus
enzyme
electrophoresis.
This
is
a
very
sophisticated
technique
where
you
take
the
cytoplasm
from
the
bacterial
cells
and
you
run
everything
on
a
gel.
And
you
see
a
pattern
there.
Based
on
the
pattern,
you
can
identify
many
different
microorganisms.
Slide
66-
Bacterial
Classification
(63)
Ok.
Genotypic
classifications
which
are
very
significantly
used
within
the
research
lab
nowadays.
It
can
be
based
upon
the
G
and
C
content
of
the
chromosome
based
upon
hybridization,
nucleic
acid
sequence
analysis,
plasmid
analysis,
ribotyping,
and
all
that
stuff.
Now,
in
this,
this
one
is
very
important
because
in
dentistry,
the
ratio
of
guanine
and
cytosine
is
very
regularly
used
to
classify
microorganisms.
All
the
pathogens,
or
all
the
microorganisms
in
the
oral
cavity
which
can
be
cultivated
and
some
of
them
which
cannot
be
cultivated,
they
already
have
the
G/C
content
of
them
and
they
can
classify
based
on
that.
DNA
hybridization
is
a
very
unique
technique.
Some
of
you
must
have
already
used
it
in
your
research
projects.
You
have
a
known
strand
of
DNA
and
then
a
radioactively
labeled
strand
and
then
you
combine
them
together
and
if
they
are
99.9%
the
same,
they
will
hybridize.
You
can
deduct
that
signal
on
a
radiograph.
Then
you
have
a
nucleic
acid
sequence
analysis.
This
is
very
commonly
done
in
my
lab,
we
do
a
lot
of
this.
We
can
take
the
samples,
do
the
sequencing,
and
based
upon
that,
we
can
identify
microorganisms.
And
then
lets
see,
there
are
a
few
examples
on
the
next
few
slides.
Slide
67-Bacterial
Morphology
(64)
Bacterial
morphology
here,
there
are
3
different
kinds
of
bacterial
shapes.
Coccus,
rods,
and
spirals.
A
spherical
or
oval
shaped
bacterium.
Bacillus
are
usually
cylindrical
shaped
bacteria
but
it
is
much
more
elongated.
And
then
you
have
spiral
or
helical
structures.
Slide
68-Arrangement
of
Cocci
(65)
In
the
next
few,
we
have
some
examples
of
that.
So
in
case
of
this
coccus
here,
you
have
a
spherical
shape.
There
are
different
categories
here.
You
have
single
cells
called
coccus.
When
you
double,
two
here,
they
are
called
diplococcus.
Streptococcus
is
a
chain
of
coccus.
This
is
streptococcus
mutans.
If
you
have
a
streptococcus
mutans
colony
and
you
see
under
the
microscope,
you
will
see
exactly
like
this.
There
is
an
immediate
structure.
Then
there
is
another
group
called
tetrad
when
4
of
them
are
combined
together.
Then
you
have
sarcina
when
you
have
8
cells.
They
form
8
cells
together,
separate
out.
8
cells
together,
separate
out.
Then
you
have
this
staphylococcus.
They
divide
and
they
form
irregular
structures
but
when
you
see
under
the
microscope,
they
look
like
a
bunch
of
grapes.
It
exactly
looks
like
that.
So
all
the
cocci
or
coccus
can
be
divided
into
different
groups
and
you
will
see
in
your
infectious
disease
class
diplococcus,
tetracoccus,
streptococcus,
and
single
coccus.
You
will
see
different
names
and
generally
lots
of
genuses,
genuses
and
species
I
talked
about
streptococcus
mutans.
The
genus
is
based
upon
the
similarities
in
morphology,
how
they
look.
So
the
division
of
this
takes
place.
If
it
is
a
coccus,
it
divides
in
the
center
into
2
cells
becoming
diplococcus.
Ok,
this
is
like
4
cells,
a
tetrad.
This
is
sarcina,
where
there
are
8
cells.
And
if
you
see
the
irregular
division,
this
is
how
irregular
division
takes
place.
This
is
a
unique
form
of
division.
Whatever
you
do,
if
the
bacteria
is
there
and
belongs
to
any
of
these
categories,
they
will
divide
in
this
fashion.
They
dont
adjust,
they
will
just
have
single
division,
double,
triple,
and
then
multiple
divisions
and
thats
how
the
classification
can
be
based.
Slide
69-Diplococcus:
pair
of
cocci
(66)
This
is
diplococcus
if
you
see
here,
streptococcus
pneumonia.
This
is
streptococcus
pneumonia.
Sometimes
there
were
two
and
then
sometimes
they
start
multiplying
and
forming
a
smaller
chain.
Slide
70-
Streptococcus:
chain
of
cocci
(67)
Streptococcus
pyogenes.
Here
you
see
a
chain
of
them.
Streptococcus
pyogenes
you
see
a
chain
and
that
is
the
name
of
that.
These
are
gram
positive.
You
see
the
color?
Gram
positive.
Slide
71-
The
cocci:
tetrad
and
sarcina
arrangements
(68)
Then
you
see
here
the
arrangement
of
tetrad
and
sarcina
here.
The
multiple
of
eights
here
and
the
4
cells
if
you
see:
one,
two,
three,
four.
Exactly,
they
look
like
this
under
the
microscope.
Slide
72:
Staphylococcus
(69)
This
is
staphylococcus
aureus,
a
bunch
of
grapes.
Ok?
See
here,
these
cells
if
you
see
here
look
like
a
bunch
of
grapes.
And
this
is
a
very
irregular
fashion
of
division
but
this
is
how
they
look.
This
is
how
they
look
under
the
electron
microscope.
Slide
73-
Arrangement
of
bacillus
(70)
Ok,
the
second
group
is
bacillus.
They
divide
only
in
1
plane.
Their
singles
are
called
bacillus.
If
they
have
a
chain,
it
is
called
streptobacillus
and
sometimes
they
have
an
irregular
or
oval
shape,
a
little
bigger
than
coccus.
And
they
are
called
bacillus.
This
is
the
bacterial
cells
in
the
electron
microscope.
See
the
size.
They
are
sometimes
4
micrometers
long.
They
are
much
more
elongated.
They
divide
in
only
1
plane.
Slide
74-Arrangement
of
Bacillus
(71)
Ok,
this
is
streptobacillus
arrangement.
You
see
the
chain?
Elongated
cells.
Again
this
is
gram
positive
and
you
have
some
of
this
coccobacillus
arrangement.
Slide
75-The
Spiral
(72)
The
spiral.
Most
of
them
are
spirochetes,
very
thin
bacteria.
We
use
the
dark
field
microscopy
to
see
spirochetes.
This
vibro
is
a
deadly
pathogen.
It
is
called
vibro
cholera
and
in
developing
countries,
this
organism
is
responsible
for
most
of
the
waterborne
diseases.
If
you
see
this
structure
under
the
electron
microscope,
you
will
see
exactly
the
same
comma
shaped
structures.
If
you
have
on
a
blood
slide
or
a
sputum
slide
or
any
kind
of
a
biospecimen
and
you
stain
it,
and
you
see
these
kinds
of
structures,
it
is
very
easy
to
differentiate.
You
have
to
see
it
if
you
are
interested
in
lab
work,
you
should
go
to
the
lab
and
see
this.
You
will
not
miss
this.
They
look
just
like
this
microorganism.
You
will
see
and
say
oh
my
god,
these
people
have
spirochete
infection.
They
are
not
supposed
to
be
there.
If
they
are
there
in
the
blood
stream
or
the
spinal
cord,
or
spinal
cord,
or
plaque
samples
or
something
like
that,
you
immediately
know
this
person
must
have
a
specific
disease
because
they
organisms
should
not
be
there
in
high
number.
So
you
cannot
miss
them
when
you
are
seeing
under
the
microscope.
Slide
76-The
Spiral
(73)
Again,
these
are
different
kinds
of
spirochetes
and
this
is
how
you
see
under
the
electron
microscope-spirochetes.
Slide
77-Bacterial
morphology
(74)
Some
microorganisms
dont
have
any
shape.
They
are
called
pleomorphic
shapes
and
they
are
called
pleomorphic
microorganisms.
They
adapt
to
the
shape
based
upon
the
environment
sometimes.
But
they
look
like
filamentous
bacteria
like
this
so
people
get
confused
that
they
are
not
fungus,
but
fungus.
But
based
upon
their
RNA
and
antibiotic
sensitivity,
they
classify
them
again
in
the
bacterial
group.
Slide
78-
Bacterial
Classification
(75)
I
will
cover
this
part,
response
to
oxygen,
because
thats
important.
Lets
see
the
definition
of
obligate
anaerobes.
Obligate
aerobes
are
the
organisms
that
require
a
high
amount
of
oxygen
to
multiple
and
survive.
If
they
are
put
in
an
anaerobic
condition,
where
there
is
no
oxygen,
they
will
die.
Obligate
anaerobes
are
just
the
opposite
to
them.
These
are
the
microorganisms
which
require
no
oxygen-no
oxygen
at
all.
If
you
open
the
vial
of
these
organisms,
here,
they
will
start
dying.
The
example,
the
best
example
is
porphyromonas
gingivalis-strictly
obligate
anaerobe.
The
example
for
obligate
aerobes
is
bacillus
anthrax.
Then
there
is
a
third
category.
We
always
say
there
is
black
and
white,
right?
But
there
is
always
a
gray
area.
This
is
facultative-that
gray
part.
A
lot
of
microorganisms,
they
love
growing
in
any
of
these
conditions
but
its
okay.
If
I
dont
get
any
of
those
conditions,
I
will
not
grow
that
fast,
but
I
will
still
survive.
Right?
Thats
how
it
is.
Obligate
aerobes
require
oxygen.
Obligate
anaerobe
doesnt
require
oxygen
at
all.
Facultative
can
survive
in
either
of
these
conditions
or
in
less
amount
of
oxygen.
Slide
79-Biological
Classification
(76)
This
is
in
a
streptococcus
classification
where
we
saw
it.
Here
there
are
less
similarities
because
all
the
classification
are
based
upon
similarities.
At
the
domain
level,
the
bacteria
are
based
upon
3
properties.
They
are
there.
If
you
keep
on
going
down,
and
come
here,
this
is
genus.
Genus
is
based
upon
morphology,
the
way
they
look.
Streptococcus.
And
then
the
species
is
streptococcus
mutans
because
they
produce
an
antibody
called
mutacin.
That
is
a
metabolite
of
metabolic
product.
Mutacin.
Thats
the
reason
the
name
is
given
streptococcus
mutans.
Then
if
you
go
by
doing
serotyping,
you
can
get
subspecies
of
C,
E,
and
F.
And
then
you
get
an
ATC
number.
This
is
what
you
get
if
you
go
doing
ribotyping
and
all
those
techniques.
Slide
80-Bacterial
Classification-Streptococcus
mutans
(77)
There
is
another
example
here
of..we
can
skip
this.
Slide
81-Biological
Classification-Staphylococcus
aureus
(78)
Ok
here,
staphylococcus
aureus.
Its
in
a
cluster,
irregular
clusters.
Gram
positive,
contains
peptidoglycan
and
everything.
If
you
see
here,
the
difference
can
be
made
here.
First
time
when
you
see
them,
you
have
a
chain
of
coccus
here.
That
are
arranged
in
chains,
Streptococcus
mutans.
Now
if
you
see
here,
cells
are
arranged
in
irregular
clusters
(referring
to
staphylococcus
aureus).
Just
by
seeing
that
under
the
microscope,
you
can
see
the
difference
between
streptococcus
and
staphylococcus
aureus.
Slide
82-
DNA
Base
Composition
Varies
Among
Different
Bacterial
Species
(79)
I
was
talking
about
the
GC
content.
So
these
are
the
DNA
base
components
of
various
bacterial
species
if
you
see
here.
They
all
have
their
own
GC
content.
Mutans
has
40-41,
whereas
Fuso
bacterium
nuceatum,
which
is
present
in
oral
cavity,
has
27-28.
So
that
can
be
easily
used
and
they
all
are
associated
with
different
kinds
of
oral
diseases.
So
this
is
how
you
can
use
genomic
or
the
percentage
of
GC
for
classification
purposes.
Slide
83-
Ribotyping
(82)
Ribotyping.
Ribotyping
is
the,
like
I
said
the
ribosome
is
the
most
conserved
stuff
in
the
living
system,
so
any
changes
happening
there
will
give
an
idea
of
what
is
happening
to
the
organism.
So
in
RFLP,
you
take
an
rRNA
gene
and
you
do
restriction
digestion.
You
take
different
kinds
of
restriction
enzymes,
you
cut
that
gene,
and
then
you
run
it
on
a
gel.
And
you
will
see
a
specific
pattern.
Based
upon
that
pattern,
you
can
easily
find
out
which
bacterial
species
are
there.
Now,
for
this
lecture,
you
have
to
remember
that
ribotyping
is
also
called
RFLP.
And
this
is
restriction
fragment
length
polymorphism.
Ok?
Restriction
fragment,
restriction
means
you
are
using
an
enzyme
to
cut
the
gene
into
smaller
pieces.
Length
polymorphism,
polymorphism
is
the
mutation.
The
changes
in
the
bases
of
the
nucleic
acid.
If
it
is
ATCG,
and
if
you
replace
one
of
the
base
with
another
base,
like
ATCG,
instead
you
have
2
As
in
the
beginning.
Thats
called
polymorphism.
Polymorphism
is
associated
with
a
lot
of
microorganisms,
but
it
doesnt
affect
the
survival
of
the
bacteria
or
anything
else.
Even
if
there
are
changes,
it
doesnt
change
anything
in
their
normal
cycle.
But
when
you
have
a
mutation,
the
protein
which
that
sequence
is
producing
may
change.
So,
what
we
are
detecting
is
the
shift
that
is
happening
in
the
nucleic
acid
sequences
by
doing
restriction
fragment
length
polymorphism.
Slide
84-
Ribotyping
(83)
Ribotyping
is
very
commonly
used.
Nothing
important
there.
Slide
85-Bacterial
Ribosome
RNA
(84)
16
S
rRNA
is
very
highly
conserved.
Everybody,
all
the
labs,
are
using
16S.
This
is
just
for
knowledge
purposes.
Know
that
16S
ribosome
sequencing
is
used
for
classification.
Very
few
labs
are
using
other
stuff.
Slide
86-
Differentiation
of
S.
mutans
and
S.
sobrinus
using
CDF
(85)
This
is
a
last,
or
one
or
two
slides.
This
is
called
CDF,
chromosomal
DNA
fingerprinting.
Chromosomal
DNA
fingerprinting.
Ok?
What
we
do
here,
for
classification
purpose,
is
we
take
the
chromosome
of
the
bacteria.
Exactly
the
same
as
we
do
in
ribotyping.
In
ribotyping,
we
are
taking
the
rRNA
gene.
Here,
you
are
taking
a
chromosome.
You
take
the
chromosome
of
any
unknown
microorganism,
ok?
You
do
the
restriction
digestion
using
a
specific
restriction
enzyme
and
you
run
it
on
a
gel.
If
there
is
a
polymorphism,
if
there
is
a
mutation,
there
will
be
changes
in
the
restriction
site,
right?
Where
the
enzymes
can
work.
If
there
are
changes
in
the
restriction
site,
it
will
cut
that
DNA
at
a
different
level.
When
it
cuts
at
a
different
level,
the
fragments
are
of
different
length.
If
the
fragments
are
at
a
different
length,
when
you
run
it
on
a
gel,
you
will
see
different
bands.
And
based
upon
that
different
bands,
you
can
easily
identify
and
classify
these
microorganisms.
Ok?
Slide
87-
PCR
amplification
of
representative
oral
bacteria
(86)
This
is
PCR,
polymerase
chain
reaction,
generally
used
in
diagnostic
labs,
but
we
can
let
it
go.
(skips
a
few
slides)
Slide
88-Summary
(96)
Ok.
Any
questions?
I
know
this
last
part
was
fun,
but
it
should
be
ok.
Its
not
that
important.
Ok?
Thank
you.
