Introduction:
It is only because of the curiosity and dedication of scientists over centuries that so much about microorganisms is known to us today. More than 300 years of rigorous experiments and constant efforts have resulted in the plethora of information that we have about microorganisms. It is only because of this information that humans have been able to use microorganism for their benefit. A lot of significant events have shaped the history of microbiology.

Which pioneers of microbiology had the biggest impact on surgical patient care?
Name three bacterial species that is contributing to advancing medical therapy and indicate each contribution.
Which of the following is NOT true about Koch's postulates?
First developed by Robert Koch, the pioneering German microbiologist
In the first step, the microbe that causes a naturally occurring disease is cultured from a "wild"
(non-laboratory) animal which has that disease
None of the other four answers (All are true about Koch's Postulates)
They represent a process for showing a causal association between a specific microbe and a
disease
If the same microbe from a diseased "wild" (non-laboratory) host causes the same disease in a
lab animal and it can be cultured from that lab animal, this proves that the microbe is the cause
of the naturally occurring disease
