Introduction History Compound microscope Variants of microscopes Dark field microscope Phase contrast microscope Fluorescent microscope Polarising microscope Electron microscope A Microscope is an instrument for viewing objects that are too small to be seen by the naked/ unaided eyes. In Greek micron= small skopien=to look at The science of investigating small object using such an instrument is called microscopy The term microscopic means minute or very small, not visible with the eye unless aided by a microscope From ancient times, man wanted to see things for smaller than could be perceived with the naked eye. This led to the construction in the 16th century, of a magnifier composed of a single convex lens, and this in turn led to the eventual development of the microscope. The most famous early pioneers in the history of microscope are Digges of England and Hans & Zcharias Janssen of Holland It was Antony Van Leeuwenhoek who became the man to make and use a real microscope. Leeuwenhoek microscope was called as single lens microscope because it had convex lens attached to metal holder and was focused using screws ]]>

CULTURE METHODS Indications for culture - Isolate bacteria in pure cultures. Demonstrate their properties. Obtain sufficient growth for preparation of antigens & for other tests. Typing bacterial isolates. Antibiotic sensitivity. Estimate viable counts. Maintain stock cultures. Streak culture or surface plating Lawn or carpet culture Stroke culture Stab culture Pour plate method Anaerobic methods of culturing bacteria Streak Culture Routinely employed for isolation Platinum / Nichrome loops LAWN OR CARPET CULTURE Uniform surface growth Bacteriophage typing Antibiotic sensitivity testing Preparation of bacterial antigens & vaccines STOKE CULTURE Tubes containing agar slopes For slide agglutination & other diagnostic tests. STAB CULTURE By puncturing a suitable medium with a long, straight charged wire. For gelatin liquefaction, stock cultures & motility POUR PLATE METHOD 1 ml of appropriately diluted inoculum is added to 15 ml of molten agar and poured on petridish. Colonies appear through out the depth of medium. Used to estimate viable count, recommended method for quantitative urine cultures. BROTH CULTURE Inoculated by a charged loop, pipette or syringes. For blood cultures & sterility testing. ]]>
