The instrument • In microbiology the instruments are designed to • Maintain sterility • To provide easy manipulation of bacterial culture • To maintain pure culture • To ensure bacterial growth are controlable
Biosafety cabinet • Enclosed, ventilated workspace for safely working with materials contaminated with (or potentially contaminated with) pathogens • There are 3 level of biosafety cabinet • 1. Biosafety level 1 • 2 .Biosafety level 2 • 3 .Biosafety level 3
Biosafety cabinet • Works Principle • Provide protection to operator and sample(class II & III) • Air came out of cabinet are filtered, • Remove microbe
Biosafety cabinet • Biosafety level I • Protect operator • Air entering did not HEPA filtered • Air coming Out are filtered. Samples e.g • Special equipment • Culture aeration
Biosafety cabinet • Biosafety level II • Protect operator and samples • Incoming air and waste air is HEPA • filtered • Samples • All types of microorganisms • excludevirus, volatile chemicals, • gases
Biosafety cabinet • Biosafety level III • Protect operator and samples • The enclosure is gas-tight. • All materials enter and leave through a dunk tank or double-door autoclave. • Gloves attached to the front prevent direct contact with hazardous materials. • the lab equipment installed inside custom-built as well.
Biosafety cabinet • Samples • Highly contagious • Such as Ebola, air borne virus, H1N1
Microbiology Incinerator • Use for sterilizing wire loop • Electrical change to heat • High temp destroys living organisms
Bunsen burner • Alternative for microbiological incinerator
Wire Loop/Stab • For inoculating microbes • Sterilize with microbe incinerator
PETRI DISH • Use to culture microbe • Fill with media such as nutrient agar
Bijou bottle • Use to culture microbe on Slant agar/liquid broth
Microscope SLIDE • Use to put on sample • Prepare microbe for staining and microscope observation
Conical FLASK • For culturing microbes • Cotton gauze, • Membrane filtered cap.
Staining Rack • To put glass slide for staining.
To prepare media, solution, or broth in large volume. • High resistant to temperature and preasure
Culture Tube • For culturing microbes • Small volume solution. • Can also use 96 wells • plate
Microscope • A microscope (from the Greek: μικρός, mikrós, "small" and σκοπεῖν, skopeîn, "to look" or "see") is an instrument to see objects too tiny for the naked eye. • The science of investigating small objects using such an instrument is called microscopy. Microscopic means invisible to the eye unless aided by a microscope. LAB INSTRUMENTATION MLT 1102
Eyepiece: Magnifies material being viewed by 10X The part of the microscope you look into Sometimes contains a pointer that can be seen as you look into the eyepiece. May also be called the ocular. Component LAB INSTRUMENTATION MLT 1102
Nose piece: • Part of microscope to which the objectives are attached • Rotates to allow for the changing of objectives to increase or decrease magnification. LAB INSTRUMENTATION MLT 1102
Arm: Part of microscope to which the nosepiece is attached A secure part of the microscope to hold on to when the microscope is being carried. Sometimes includes a cord hanger for power cord storage LAB INSTRUMENTATION MLT 1102
Objectives: • Magnify material being examined • Scanning • magnifies 4X • 10X • magnifies 10X • High dry • magnifies 40X • Oil immersion • magnifies 100X Total magnification = magnifying power of eyepiece times the magnifying power of the objective in use. LAB INSTRUMENTATION MLT 1102
Stage: Platform on which microscope slide rests • Mechanical Stage: • Used for adjusting the position of the slide for viewing • Slide holder: • Secures slide to the mechanical stage • Mechanical Stage control knobs: • Move the slide LAB INSTRUMENTATION MLT 1102
Coarse adjustment knob: Coarse focusing • Fine adjustment knob: • Precise focusing LAB INSTRUMENTATION MLT 1102
Substage condenser concentrates light & directs it through opening in microscope stage • Iris diaphragm: • regulates the amount of light passing through the substage condenser • increases resolving power of the microscope LAB INSTRUMENTATION MLT 1102
Iris diaphragm lever: • adjusts the iris diaphragm to increase or decrease microscope resolution • Condenser control knob: • raises & lowers condenser LAB INSTRUMENTATION MLT 1102
Illuminator Light source • Illuminator control: • Controls the intensity of light • Serves as the on/off switch for some microscopes • Base: • provides support for microscope LAB INSTRUMENTATION MLT 1102
Using Microscope • Put stained slide on stage, secure with clip • Rotate nosepiece so 4X objective face the slide, • Use coarse focusing to focus the image, • Change to 10X objective, use fine focusing to get sharp image. • Change to 40 X use fine focus knob • Rotate objective to 100X halfway, • Drop an immersion oil to the slide • Continue rotating the nosepiece to 100X objectives. • Slowly use fine focusing to get the sharp image.
