For each individual, we propose that harvesting a threshold level of energy from the environment fundamentally triggers the microbial division process. Each division can thus be described as a...

For example algae can be used to teach photosynthesis. Microbiology and How Science Works (HSW) Microbiology can be used to exemplify some of the HSW criteria across the key stages.

view moreMicrobial evolution is a relatively new field of science, but how microbes relate to human health and disease beyond pathologic infections is novel. We are learning that microbes and humans exist together as an ecosystem with microbial genes vastly outnumbering those derived from the human sperm and egg.

view moreFour main aspects of our lives are harming our microbial communities: (1) Our use of antibiotics. While these are important, life-saving drugs, we need to balance their benefits with the emerging risks of using them, and compensate for the collateral damage they cause using probiotics. (2) Our low-fiber, animal-based diets.

Microorganisms are used to change one substance to another which is used as food, such as milk to yoghurt and cheese, sugar to wine and bread. Fermented Dairy Products: Fermented milk is produced by inoculating pasteurised milk with specific culture of microorganisms.
view moreThe main figure in this achievement was Louis Pasteur (1822-1895), a French scientist who first demonstrated the crucial role microbes (microscopic organisms) play in the life process. He established the germ theory of disease and was the first to show that vaccines against infectious diseases can be manufactured.

These bacteria would later repopulate, replacing the ones that were eliminated.

Microbiologists are rapidly gaining a greater understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in these behaviours, and the underlying genetic regulation.

view moreMicrobes play key roles in nutrient cycling, biodegradation/biodeterioration, climate change, food spoilage, the cause and control of disease, and biotechnology. Thanks to their versatility, microbes can be put to work in many ways: making life-saving drugs, the manufacture of biofuels, cleaning up pollution and producing/processing food and drink.
