6-17 MICROBES AND FOOD - Science Olympiad

• Microbes play a key role – bacteria and fungi – in food spoilage and decomposition • Many types can live at low temperatures as mold on food in the refrigerator • Food preservation techniques as salt and high acid affect microbes Contamination of Fresh Foods – Food is considered contaminated when unwanted microorganisms are present



Prepared for the UW-Madison The Wonderful World of Microbes

Xl Types of Microbes lW Scientists classify organisms using ttaxonomic groupingsaxonomic groupings Domain is the broadest group Two of the domains (Bacteria and Archaea) include microbial organisms with no nnucleusucleus To distinguish the third domain, domain Eukarya, from the all-microbial domains Bacteria and Archaea, all we need to ask is:



Bacterial Classification, Structure and Function

2 Describe the different types of bacteria 3 Discuss bacterial structure and the function of the different bacterial components 4 Discuss the distinguishing characteristics of Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria For this lecture you should focus on the major concepts and not on the names of the different bacteria
