z Overview § World Health Organization § Center for Disease Control and Experiment § Germ Theory and Prevention § Controlled experiment § Important people § Accomplishments of those people

z World Health Organization § The World Health Organization is a specialized agency of the UN § Their concern is international public health § Ensuring that a billion people have universal health coverage § Protect people from health NG emergencies and pursue the wellbeing of millions more

z New Bacteria Prevention § Always keep your hands clean § Avoid making contact with your face and eyes § Keep your surroundings clean and sanitary § Get Vaccinations NG

z Germ Theory and Microbiology § Microorganism's or pathogens can lead to disease § Germs inside the body are what cause sickness § Microbiology, the study of Microorganisms § Cells that are unicellular, multicellular and Acellular NG

z Lock and Key Model • Substrate, the molecule broken apart • Active site, area substrate binds • Enzyme breaks down the substrate • Denature causes the enzyme to malfunction • Extreme temp or p. H change NG being the cause

z Controlled Experiment § One variable of an experiment gets changed § Independent variable, variable being changed § Control group, normal environment and conditions § Experimental GS group, changed variable

Ignaz Semmelweis z § Hungarian physician of ethnic- German ancestry § Cadaverous material caused childbed fever § He instituted a policy of using a solution of chlorinated lime for washing hands § chlorinated solution worked best GS to remove the putrid smell of infected autopsy tissue

z Louis Pasteur § French biologist, microbiologist and chemist § One of the fathers of germ theory § One of the three main founders of bacteriology § One of the fathers of microbiology § Remarkable breakthroughs in the GS causes and prevention of diseases

z Accomplishments Ignaz Semmelweis Louis Pasteur § Pioneer of § Awarded 1, 500 francs antiseptic policy § Semmelweis University is named after him § Minor planet is named after him. GS § Rumford medal § Copley medal § Leeuwenhoek medal

z Robert Koch § German physician and pioneering microbiologist § With no laboratory he discovered Anthrax was caused by bacillus § Methods of growing bacteria to identify them § Able to formulate rules to prevent epidemics of many diseases DO

z Alexander Fleming § Became a doctor and serve in the military § After witnessing soldiers die from infections, he wanted to find cure § Discovered Penicillin, an antibiotic § Tested Penicillin with mold in petri dish, which showed the mold couldn't grow on the penicillin DO

z Accomplishments and Contributions Alexander Fleming Robert Koch § Discovered: cholera vibrio and its route infection § Work earned him 100, 000 deutsche § DO Work influenced the development of sanitary water supplies. § Discovered: Lysozyme, an enzyme that catalyzes destruction of the cell walls § Discovered penicillin, one of first working antibiotics § Shared the Nobel Prize with two other researchers

z DO Macromolecules § Macromolecules are Protein, Lipids, Nucleic acid, and Carbohydrates § Macromolecules consist of polymers and Monomers § All connected through similar building blocks and covalent bonds § the way something is arranged enables it to play its role, fulfill its job, within an organism
