1 Science at the University of Auckland Presented by igem
2 Who are we?
3 First of all Collecting Samples
4 Why collect samples? Any ideas? To learn more about what you are studying To diagnose illnesses To collect data To discover new organisms To discover new medicines
5 How do you do it? With specific tools Swabs Petri dish Agar Sterile conditions? Any ideas? Depends on what you are sampling Exanple: Hand Wash 1. Take a small amount of water in one palm and use two fingers to rub the water around your palm. 2. Pour water into agar plate and spread around the plate with a cotton bud. (Be careful not to break the agar)
6 Break into Groups!! 5 groups
7 What do you want to do? 1. Go outside and find some water or soil OR 2. Use some water and do a hand wash
8 5 Minutes to Collect your Microbial Sample!
9 Microbiology
10 What is Microbiology? Microbiology is the study of Microbes.
11 Why is Microbiology Important? Any Ideas?
12 Before that... What is a Microbe? A microbe is an organism that is either very difficult or impossible to see with the naked eye. You need a Microscope! They can be both Eukaryotes ( organisms with organelles) or Prokaryotes (single-celled organisms with no organelles ie. Bacteria or Archaea) Microbes are not all harmful!! The majority of microbes are actually harmless. idth=635&name=microbes-small.jpg
13 Why is Microbiology Important? Any new ideas? The discovery, diagnosis and study of diseases The discovery of new medicines Helps us to solve environmental issues Helps us understand how our own bodies work. The Human Gut Microbiome! Cheese, Bread and Beer!
14 Where do you find them? Any Ideas? Everything is everywhere but the environment selects!
15 Some Famous Microbes
16 Saccharomyces cerevisiae ked%20items.jpg Is a Yeast, which means it is a Eukaryote Is found naturally in the skins of fruit Its most famous function is the production of Ethanol from Glucose Is used in the food industry for many things Bread Cheese Yogurt Wine Beer Spirits Vegemite
17 Penicillium ssp. Is a Fungi, which means it is a Eukaryote Can naturally be found in soil The most famous function is the production of the antibiotic Penicillin from which most of today's antibiotics are derived Various species within the Penicillium genus are used for different products Antibiotics Cheeses (Camembert, Brie, Danish Blue Cheese and Gorgonzola Many are also plant pathogens
18 Escherichia coli Is a Bacteria which means it is a prokaryote Is a gut microbe that can only survive outside of the body for a short time E.coli can live off of many different food sources and can produce many different bi-products Due to its small genome and the amount of research done on E.coli it is often used as a model organism in labs, is genetically modified to produce different compounds and is also a coliform used as an indicator organism to test for pathogens. c/ecoli_2.jpg
19 What kinds of Microbes do you think are interesting? Find an interesting microbe to share with us next time!
20 What do you think so far about Microbiology? What do you think about doing science at University? Ask us about studying at the University of Auckland
21 Question Time
22 Things to remember for next time. Remember to find a microbe that you think is interesting to share with us next time! Think about any questions you might have for us. Ask us anything!
23 See you next time!
