Fundamentals are identical for all students:
Classification and Nomenclature of microorganisms. Taxonomic criteria (the identification of microorganisms). Composition of bacterial cells.
Nutrition of microorganisms, source of basic elements. Reproduction of bacteria, the growth curve, continuous cultivation. Culture media - classification, composition, preparation.
Physical effects on microbial growth and reproduction (effects of temperature, radiation).
Chemical and biological effects on microbial growth and reproduction.
Enzymes. The metabolism of microorganisms, catabolism, anabolisms, photophosphorylation, phosphorylation on the substrate level, oxidative phosphorylation, degradation of carbohydrates. Fermentation - various types and their importance.
Aerobic catabolic processes, respiratory chain. Anaerobic respiration.
Fundamentals of microbial genetics. Changes in microbial genetic information(mutations, recombination). Transfer of genetic information (conjugation, transformation, transduction).
