Early History of Microbiology The Early Days The science of microbiology started with the invention of the microscope. The English scientist Robert Hooke is credited with being the first person to use a microscope for academic study. That was in the early 1660's. In 1665 Hooke published his landmark book Micrographia , which described the microscopic world for the first time. Hooke studied plant sections, in particular cork and he drew what he saw, which was a matrix of tiny cylindrical-like structures he called cells . Later researchers saw such structures in all types of living organism and Hooke's naming remained. Today it is considered to be a foundation stone in the understanding of microbiology. (Left) A sketch of Hooke's microscope. (Right) No images of Hooke survive. Willen Church in Buckinghamshire, England, was designed by Robert Hooke who also discovered Hooke's Law and the Great Red Spot on the planet Jupiter. Meanwhile in continental Europe others, such as

MicrobiologyBytes Introduction to Microbiology : History of Microbiology Updated: January 19, 2005 Search A Brief History of Microbiology Development of microscopy: Aristotle (384-322) and others believed that living organisms could develop from non-living materials. Hans and Zacharias Janssen (Dutch lens grinders) mounted two lenses in a tube to produce the first compound microscope. Robert Hooke (1635-1703) published "Micrographia", containing drawings and detailed observations of biological materials made with the best compound microscope and illumination system of the time. Anton van Leeuwenhoek (1632-1723) was the first person to observe microorganisms. Carl Zeiss and Ernst Abbe pioneered developments in microscopy (such as immersion lenses and apochromatic lenses which reduce chromatic aberration) which perist until the present day. Ernst Ruska constructed the first electron microscope. Spontaneous generation controversy: Francesco Redi (1626-1678) was an Italian physician who refuted the idea of spontaneous generation by showing that rotting meat carefully kept from flies will not spontaneously produce maggots.

Early civilizations on Crete, India, Pakistan and Scotland invented toilets and sewers ; lavatories, dating around 2800 BC, have been found on the Orkney islands and in homes in Pakistan about the same time. One archaeologist has stated that " The high quality of the sanitary arrangements [in ~2500 BC] could well be envied in many parts of the world today ". In Rome, 315 AD, the public lavatories were places where people routinely socialized and conducted business. Ten to twenty people could be seated around a room, with their wastes being washed away by flowing water; it must have been difficult to " stand on your dignity " under such circumstances. The Chinese used TOILET PAPER as early as AD 589. In Europe moss, hay and straw were used for the same purpose. I can personally attest to the use as late as 1962 of "slick magazines" as toilet paper in certain European camp grounds.

Microbiology History Antony van Leeuwenhoek (1632-1723) . . . my work, which I've done for a long time, was not pursued in order to gain the praise I now enjoy, but chiefly from a craving after knowledge, which I notice resides in me more than in most other men. And therewithal, whenever I found out anything remarkable, I have thought it my duty to put down my discovery on paper, so that all ingenious people might be informed thereof. Antony van Leeuwenhoek. Letter of June 12, 1716 Leeuwenhoek is known to have made over 500 "microscopes," of which fewer than ten have survived to the present day. In basic design, probably all of Leeuwenhoek's instruments certainly all the ones that are known were simply powerful magnifying glasses, not compound microscopes of the type used today. A drawing of one of Leeuwenhoek's "microscopes" is shown at the left. Compared to modern microscopes, it is an extremely simple device, using only one lens, mounted in a tiny hole in the brass plate that makes up the body of the instrument. The specimen was mounted on the sharp point that sticks up in front of the lens, and its position and focus could be adjusted by turning the two screws. The entire instrument was only 3-4 inches long, and had to be held up close to the eye; it required good lighting and great patience to use. Compound microscopes (that is, microscopes using more than one lens) had been invented around 1595, nearly forty years before Leeuwenhoek was born. Several of Leeuwenhoek's predecessors and contemporaries, notably Robert Hooke in England and Jan Swammerdam in the Netherlands, had built compound microscopes and were making important discoveries with them. These were much more similar to the microscopes in use today. Thus, although Leeuwenhoek is sometimes called "the inventor of the microscope," he was no such thing.

Generally, immune systems interact with pathogenic microbes; these two disciplines often intersect which is why many colleges offer a paired degree such as "Microbiology and Immunology".

(AKA abiogenisis) Francesco Redi - Disproved spontaneous generation theory - covered jar containing meat with gauze - saw maggots form on surface of gauze, not on meat Father Needham Favored spontaneous generation - conducted experiment with meat broth in test tubes: Sealed tubes with wooden plug; broth became clouded with many microorganisms. - He suspected broth spontaneously spawned these microorganisms. Father Spallanzani - heated broth in tube then sealed culture - broth remained clear = no microorganisms. Gave no regard to lack of oxygen in sealed tubes.

@import url( http://www.scq.ubc.ca/wp-content/themes/science_creative_quarterly/style.css ); FOOD MICROBIOLOGY: THE BASICS AND THE DETAILS OF CHEESE PRODUCTION (August 2003) Food spoilage has been an important problem throughout human history. Finding ways to overcome this problem was crucial as communities became larger and individuals no longer grew their own food. Some kind of system was needed to maintain the nutrient content of various food stuffs for long periods of time and prevent them from rotting and becoming inedible. Early solutions to food spoilage Fermentation Industrial processes using fermentation Fermentation by bacteria, yeast and mold is key to the production of fermented foods. Fermenting yeast produces the alcohol in beer and wine. In fact, the smell of fresh baked bread and rising dough can be attributed to alcohol produced from yeast. Fermentation is used to make many ethnic foods such as sauerkraut and miso. Soy sauce is produced by fermenting Aspergillus ortzae, a fungus, growing on soy beans. Erwinia dissolvens , another type of bacteria, is essential for coffee bean production; it is used to soften and remove the outer husk of beans. Finally, fermentation of milk produces most dairy products. Without microbes, we would not be able to eat many types of different food that we enjoy today. Table 1 shows example of several foods that are produced through fermentation with specific organisms.

The high visibility of a basic discipline such as bacteriology at a very early stage in the development of the dental school was no doubt influenced by the presence of prominent bacteriologists at the famous Laboratory of Hygiene of the University of Pennsylvania. The history of the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine really begins with the Philadelphia College of Dental Surgery . The college was inaugurated on October 29, 1852 and located at 328 Arch Street in Philadelphia. The college was short-lived. However, the faculty petitioned to obtain a new charter and the Pennsylvania College of Dental Surgery was formed in 1856. It was located at 528 Arch Street until 1864 when it moved to Tenth and Arch Streets. The college moved again in 1871 to Eleventh and Clinton Streets where it remained until 1909. The Pennsylvania College of Dental Surgery was the third oldest dental school in the country.
