• Hands-on routines for preparing nutrient gelatin and potato cultures, including sterilization and contamination precautions.


• Instructions for observing bacterial cells, spores, and motion under the microscope using hanging drops and prepared slides.


• Realistic timelines and setup requirements for culture work, dilution culture, and isolation of colonies.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

No attempt has been made in the following pages at a formal, systematic presentation of Bacteriology. The subject-matter has been arranged entirely with reference to progressive work in the laboratory and, more especially, corresponds with the work as carried on in the Hygienic Laboratory of the University of Michigan. The course covers a period of twelve weeks of daily afternoon work. Illustrations of the various bacteria and of their cultural characteristics have been expressly omitted, as the student is expected to sketch from observation the form of each organism and its peculiarities of growth in the colony, and in tube culture. Blank pages are provided for this purpose and for such additional notes as may bo desirable. The works that have been drawn upon freely in the preparation of these pages are Fraeukel sG rundriss der Bakterienkunde, Eisenberg sB akteriologische Diagnostik, andF liigge sD ie Mikroorganisnien. The larger works of Baumgarten and of Sternberg were likewise frequently consulted, and in many instances recourse was had to the original sources. For the frontispiece plate, which is intended to show the component parts of the microscope, I am indebted to the firm of E. Leitz, of Wetzlar. F. G. NOVY. ANN ARBOR, A pril, 1894.
