use of PPE
education and training
ensures nurses properly know how to deal iwht microorganisms in everyday nursing life
First Golden Era (17th-19th century)
Bacterial Physiology
methods for cultivation
Germ Theory
disease is caused by microorganisms known as germs that enter body and multiply
1860's- Joseph Lister used phenol as a chemical disinfectant to prevent wound infection
1876- Koch proved bacteria causes Anthrax
led to koch principles to prove that specific microbes can cause disease
1840- Semmelweis advocated for hand washing to prevent fever transmission after birth

Concepts
innate immunity
genome evolution
Microbes in chronic diseases

Studies microbial pathogens, chemotherapeutic agents, new antibiotics, vaccinations and the publics health
Applications
identification of uncultivated microbes
microbes for bioremidation
new methods for rapid identifications
Second Golden Era (first 1/2 of 20th)
