Introduction
Microorganisms can, in addition to initiating
infections, cause product spoilage (爐爐む爐爐鉦う爐 爐爐萎ぞ爐
爐項爐爛) by chemically decomposing the active
ingredient or the excipients.
Pharmacist must know where microorganisms
arise in the environment, the sources of microbial
contamination (爐爛 爐劇た爐 爐項爐爛), and the factors that
predispose to, or prevent, product spoilage.
Introduction
Commercial antibiotic production began with the manufacture of Penicillin in the
year 1940
Development of recombinant DNA technology in the last three decades
Understanding of the physiology and genetics of microorganisms will also become
more important
Introduction
Several of the traditional
diseases that were major causes
of death before the antibiotic
era, e.g. tuberculosis and
diphtheria, are now re-emerging
in resistant form
Adding to the problems posed by
infections in which antibiotic
resistance has long been a problem,
and those like CreutzfeldtJakob
disease, West Nile virus , severe
acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)
and Now Covid-19
Microorganisms
Major groups
Bacteria
Fungi
Protozoa
Viruses
Less well known
categories like
Chlamydia
Rickettsia
Mycoplasma
Differ enormously in terms of their shape, size and appearance and in their genetic and
metabolic characteristics
Microorganism
 Microorganisms and Pathogenic microorganisms
 The microorganisms are tiny, simple-structure but diverse
organisms.
Non-cellular microorganism Prokaryotes Eukaryotes
Microorganism
Most of the microorganisms are vital to humans, animals and
plants.
Only a small number of microorganisms, known as pathogenic
microorganisms, can cause human, animal and plant diseases.
Pathogenic microorganisms invade the host, interact with the
hosts defense systems and result in pathology, a process called
infection.
Viruses
Viruses do not have a cellular
structure.
They are particles composed of
nucleic acid surrounded by protein;
some possess a lipid envelope and
associated glycoproteins.
Viroids
Viroids (virusoids) are even simpler than viruses, being
infectious particles comprising single-stranded RNA
without any associated protein
Prions
Prions are unique as infectious agents in that they
contain no nucleic acid.
A prion is an atypical form of a mammalian protein that
can interact with a normal protein molecule and cause
it to undergo a conformational change so that it, in turn,
becomes a prion and ceases its normal function
Prions
Mad cow brain
Bacteria
Bacteria are single celled prokaryotic microorganisms.
They come in various shape and sizes. They can live in various
conditions and have a complex relationship with humans. They
are among the first life forms to appear on Earth.
Fungi
Fungi are eukaryotes and therefore differ from bacteria are
structurally more complex and varied in appearance
The term fungus covers both yeasts and moulds
Protozoa
Protozoa are eukaryotic, predominantly unicellular
microorganisms that are regarded as animals rather than plants
Some are parasites of plants and animals, including humans
Brief history of the science of microbiology
 Concept of spontaneous generation
 Experiments that were performed to disprove
this erroneous idea.
(爐爐む爐伍爐
爛 爐むい 爐劇た爐∇)
Concept of spontaneous generation
Spontaneous generation or anomalous generation is an obsolete body of
thought on the ordinary formation of living organisms without descent from
similar organisms
Fleas could arise
from inanimate
matter such as dust
Maggots could arise
from dead flesh
Flies from bovine
manure and
Fish from the mud
of previously dry
lakes
Several experiments have been conducted to
disprove spontaneous generation
Redi's Experiment (1668)
In 1668, Francesco Redi, an Italian scientist, designed a
scientific experiment to test the spontaneous creation of
maggots by placing fresh meat in each of two different jars.
One jar was left open; the other was covered with a cloth.
Redi's Experiment
Days later, the open jar contained maggots, whereas the covered jar contained no
maggots.
He did note that maggots were found on the exterior surface of the cloth that covered
the jar.
Redi successfully demonstrated that the maggots came from fly eggs and thereby
helped to disprove spontaneous generation.
John Needham challenge (1748)
In England, John Needham challenged Redi's findings by conducting an experiment in which he
placed a broth, or gravy, into a bottle, heated the bottle to kill anything inside, then sealed it.
Days later, he reported the presence of life in the broth and announced that life had been created
from nonlife.
In actuality, he did not
heat it long enough to
kill all the microbes.
Spallanzani's Experiment (1768)
Lazzaro Spallanzani, also an Italian
scientist, reviewed both Redi's and
Needham's data
He constructed his own experiment by
placing broth in each of two separate
bottles, boiling the broth in both
bottles, then sealing one bottle and
leaving the other open.
Spallanzani's Experiment (1768)
Days later, the unsealed bottle
was teeming with small living
things that he could observe
more clearly with the newly
invented microscope.
The sealed bottle showed no signs
of life.
Except it was noted by scientists of the
day that Spallanzani had deprived the
closed bottle of air, and it was thought
that air was necessary for spontaneous
generation
Pasteur's Experiment (1860)
 Louis Pasteur, the notable French
scientist, accepted the challenge
to re-create the experiment and
leave the system open to air.
 He subsequently designed several
bottles with S-curved necks that
were oriented downward so
gravity would prevent access by
airborne foreign materials.
Swan neck duct flask
Pasteur's Experiment
 He placed a nutrient-enriched broth in one of the goose-
neck bottles, boiled the broth inside the bottle, and
observed no life in the jar for one year.
 He then broke off the top of the bottle, exposing it more
directly to the air, and noted life-forms in the broth within
days.
Pasteur's Experiment
 He noted that as long as dust and other airborne
particles were trapped in the S-shaped neck of
the bottle, no life was created until this obstacle
was removed.
 Pasteur won the Alhumbert Prize in 1862 for this
work
Never will the doctrine of spontaneous
generation recover from the mortal blow of
this simple experiment.
There is no known circumstance in which it
can be confirmed that microscopic beings
came into the world without germs, without
parents similar to themselves
There are many references pertaining to
bacteria in ancient literature such as
Rigveda, Atherveda, Satapadha -
Brahmana, Taittireeya Upanidshad,
Aranyaka, Chandyogyopanishad &
Vishnupurana.
The method of vaccination for prevention
of masurika (small pox) was also described
in Sakteya grandha of Dhanvantri
The Role of Microorganisms in Disease
 Agostino Bassi (1773-1856) showed that a
silkworm disease was caused by a fungus
 M. J. Berkeley (ca. 1845) demonstrated
that the Great Potato Blight of Ireland was
caused by a fungus.
The Role of Microorganisms in Disease
 Louis Pasteur showed that the p辿ine disease
of silkworms was caused by a protozoan
parasite
The Role of Microorganisms in Disease
 Ignaz Semmelweis (1818 - 1865)
Hungarian physician working in Vienna
 He made doctors wash hands in chloride
of lime before touching patients
 Dramatically reduced incidence of
childbed fever
 Met much opposition from medical
establishment, Practice stopped when he
retired and deaths went up.
The Role of Microorganisms in Disease
 Joseph Lister (1872-1912) developed a system of surgery
designed to prevent microorganisms from entering
wounds; his patients had fewer postoperative infections,
thereby providing indirect evidence that microorganisms
were the causal agents of human disease; his published
findings (1867) transformed the practice of surgery
Joseph lister carbolic spray
The Role of Microorganisms in Disease
 Robert Koch (1843-1910), using criteria
developed by his teacher, Jacob Henle (1809-
1895), established the relationship between
Bacillus anthracis and anthrax; his criteria
became known as Koch's Postulates and are still
used to establish the link between a particular
microorganism and a particular disease:
Introduction and History of Pharmaceutical microbiology.pptx
Koch's Postulates
The microorganisms
must be present in
every case of the
disease but absent from
healthy individuals.
The suspected
microorganisms must be
isolated and grown in
pure culture.
The same disease must
result when the isolated
microorganism is
inoculated into a
healthy host.
The same
microorganism must be
isolated again from the
diseased host.
The Role of Microorganisms in Disease
 Charles Chamberland (1851-1908) constructed a
bacterial filter that removed bacteria and larger
microbes from specimens; this led to the
discovery of virus as disease-causing agents
Immunological studies
PasteurChamberland filter
The Role of Microorganisms in Disease
 Edward Jenner (1798) used a vaccination
procedure to protect individuals from
smallpox
 Louis Pasteur developed other vaccines
including those for chicken cholera, anthrax,
and rabies
The Role of Microorganisms in Disease
 Emil von Behring (1854-1917) and Shibasaburo Kitasato (1852-
1931) induced the formation of diphtheria toxin antitoxins in
rabbits; the antitoxins were effectively used to treat humans and
provided evidence for humoral immunity
 Elie Metchnikoff (1845-1916) demonstrated the existence of
phagocytic cells in the blood, thus demonstrating cell-mediated
immunity
Industrial Microbiology and Microbial Ecology
 Louis Pasteur demonstrated that alcoholic
fermentations were the result of microbial activity, that
some organisms could decrease alcohol yield and sour
the product, and that some fermentations were
aerobic and some anaerobic; he also developed the
process of pasteurization to preserve wine during
storage
Industrial Microbiology and Microbial Ecology
 Sergei Winogradsky (1856-1953) worked with
soil bacteria and discovered that they could
oxidize iron, sulfur, and ammonia to obtain
energy; he also studied anaerobic nitrogen
fixation and cellulose decomposition
Industrial Microbiology and Microbial Ecology
 Martinus Beijerinck (1851-1931) isolated
aerobic nitrogen-fixing bacteria, a root-nodule
bacterium capable of fixing nitrogen, and
sulphate reducing bacteria
 Beijerinck and Winogradsky pioneered the
use of enrichment cultures and selective
media
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek
 24 October 1632  26 August 1723
 Commonly known as "The Father of Microbiology", and
one of the first microscopists and microbiologists
 Van Leeuwenhoek is best known for his pioneering work
in microscopy
Animalcules
Edward Jenner
 17 May 1749  26 January 1823
 Pioneer of smallpox vaccine, the world's
first vaccine
 Jenner is often called "The Father of Immunology"
Louis Pasteur
 December 27, 1822  September 28, 1895
 Pasteur's research also showed that
 the growth of micro-organisms was responsible for
spoiling beverages, such as beer, wine and milk.
 He invented a process in which liquids such as milk
were heated to a temperature between 60 and
100 属C.
 This killed most bacteria and moulds already present
within them. The method became known
as pasteurization.
Louis Pasteur
 Disproved the theory of Spontaneous generation
 Pasteur used a weakened culture of the bacteria to inoculate
chickens. The chickens survived, and when he inoculated them with
a virulent strain, they were immune to it
 In the 1870s, he applied this immunization method to anthrax
 Pasteur gave these artificially weakened diseases the generic name
of "vaccines", in honor of Jenner's discovery
 Pasteur produced the first vaccine for rabies by growing the virus in
rabbits, and then weakening it by drying the affected nerve tissue
Hans Christian Gram
 September 13, 1853  November 14,
1938
 In 1884, he developed a method for
distinguishing between two major classes
of bacteria.
 This technique, the Gram stain, continues to
be a standard procedure in
medical microbiology. The stain later played
a major role in classifying bacteria
Alexander Fleming
 6 August 1881  11 March 1955
 His best-known discoveries are the enzyme lysozyme
in 1923 and the world's first antibiotic substance
benzyl penicillin (Penicillin G) from the
mould Penicillium notatum in 1928,
Scope and Applications
Concerned with the use of microorganisms in the
production of drugs that has special applications in
pharmaceutical field
Production of antibiotics
Pharmaceutical microbiology is
concerned with the isolation of
antibiotic producing microorganisms
from natural environments such as soil
and water.
Many antibiotics are isolated from
natural microorganisms by the process
of fermentation.
Introduction and History of Pharmaceutical microbiology.pptx
Production of enzyme
 Many microbial cell produce
extracellular and intracellular
enzymes and these enzymes are
important for the success of
pharmaceutical fermentation
process.
 They are associated with the
microorganism ability to attack,
degrade and utilize components of
the medium and to accumulate
fermentation products Cellulase
留-amylase
Introduction and History of Pharmaceutical microbiology.pptx
Production of bio surfactants
 Biosurfactants can be defined as the surface-active
biomolecules produced by microorganisms with wide-range of
applications.
 Biosurfactants (BS) are amphiphilic compounds excreted
extracellularly and contain hydrophobic and hydrophilic
moieties that reduce surface tension (ST) and interfacial
tensions between individual molecules at the surface and
interface.
Classes of Biosurfactants
Production of vaccine
Microorganisms are used for preparation of
different types of vaccines that have great impact on
the community by preventing from deadly disease.
 Measles, Chickenpox, Hepatitis, Tuberculosis, Polio etc.
Treatment of industrial waste material
 Most industrial processes produce waste waters, salts,
organic matters, which may be toxic.
 Many microbial species are used for decomposition of
such waste material and organic components.
 eg: actinomycetes, fungi, protozoa etc.
Sterile product preparation
 Pharmaceutical microbiology plays a major role in
preparation of sterile production.
 It deals with preparation of sterile room, aseptic
technique, detection of microorganisms by sampling
and sterility testing of different sterile preparation.
Testing of pharmaceutical
 Raw materials and finished products:
 Test for the detection of Escherichia
coli, Salmonella spp, Pseudomonas spp,
Staphylococcus aureus in pharmaceutical raw
materials and finished products are described in
the Indian pharmacopoeia (IP), United States
Pharmacopoeia (USP), European Pharmacopoeia
(EP) and British Pharmacopoeia (BP)
