00:05 Thank you so much. I Ok. No, listen.

00:29 I, ok. No, Uh I know I really.

00:56 folks. Um welcome. So uh for braving the uh elements and um

01:11 , you know, obviously, um is a big town, right?

01:16 parts people live in all various parts Houston. Um and some are gonna

01:23 more affected by this rain than others . So, um um, but

01:28 know, we still have class, got a couple of emails we have

01:30 class. Yes, we're in Uh but you can all because

01:34 I'm only, I only follow what A is, right? They have

01:37 office of emergency blah, blah and post a notice saying classes canceled whatever

01:43 that's, that's I follow suit. . So if you're ever wondering,

01:48 , it's I got bad weather by . Do we have classes? Just

01:51 there and, and I, I what they tell me to do.

01:55 . So, um obviously if it's safe for you to drive, then

02:00 if it says classes canceled or, it says does not say it,

02:04 you're directly affected by it. You only do what's safe. So obviously

02:10 come to class. Ok. Um , so we do need this rain

02:17 . We've been in a severe drought three months. So anyway, um

02:25 you. So, um, all . So remember tomorrow next, uh

02:32 opens for exam two? Ok. uh be aware of that and so

02:39 some are still going to the old site that's not where you're going,

02:43 going to this CCS version, So, um um so just remember

02:50 . OK. Um If you're not your, the course, it's probably

02:54 you're not at the right site. . Uh Usual stuff, quiz.

02:59 , weekly quiz. Um Tomorrow, work Monday do. Uh and we'll

03:06 the last chapter that's gonna be covered this next exam. Chapter six of

03:13 . All right. So we'll get a little bit of that here in

03:16 bit. Uh So let's um let finish up what we've got left here

03:24 four and start with um usual OK. Uh Let's see what we

03:32 here. We go. So, right. I, I also,

03:36 also helps me reset my brain as . So, uh OK. So

03:40 , right? So we are looking in uh in this chapter. Uh

03:51 gonna end it with um a couple , I guess you call it

03:55 growth phenomenon phenomena, uh biofilm formation endospore formation. OK. And

04:02 uh so before we get there right? So we looked at the

04:06 so if you're gonna grow microbes, , you need to supply the usual

04:11 like cho NPS and various forms depending the nutritional type, right? So

04:17 much uh where it begins is with , you know, carbon source.

04:22 type is it? So we already about hetro autotroph, right? And

04:26 supplying the right, you know, in terms of uh energy electron

04:31 And as I mentioned, you these can the these certainly the electron

04:36 can uh even energy source can be of the same thing, right?

04:41 , right? For a for us a hetro will and any other hetro

04:46 can serve as both the electron source oxidizing it as an energy source.

04:51 , you know, some of these are gonna be it's not just like

04:54 source for each mo block, The nutrient can serve multiple roles.

05:01 So you combine these different forms into medium, right? So we looked

05:05 complex medium defined medium, OK. enrichment culture, fastidious bacteria.

05:12 Remember these types have a lot of requirements, they can't do a lot

05:17 their own kind of metabolism. So have to feed them lots of

05:21 Um That's the nature of a fastidious . OK. Uh We also,

05:27 think I didn't mention it here, we looked at, I think selective

05:29 differential media. Um So there's there's for different purposes, you can use

05:34 for different things to see if there's differences between cell types and maybe you

05:40 to exclude certain types. So, know, you can, you can

05:43 your medium for whatever kind of purpose want usually. OK. And then

05:49 we went into dynamics of growth, ? So we looked at a couple

05:53 um of uh growth problems and there'll a couple, a couple of these

05:59 the test. So remember that you be allowed to have a calculator,

06:04 type, any type in there uh do the problems. Um Then uh

06:10 the other thing if um I forgot check um cannabis, but I did

06:15 you I had some practice problems on . I can't remember if I did

06:19 not. So I'll check and if they're not there, I'll put

06:22 up. So if you have and all worked out, written out.

06:25 if you, if you having problems it, look at that. Uh

06:28 certainly you can contact me, if you need help. Um

06:33 of course, in, in monitoring , right? So you want to

06:37 um you know, getting this actual numbers, cell growth rates is um

06:43 important. Certainly, if you're trying maximize cell growth, you wanna

06:47 OK, what's, what rate does thing grow at all? Right?

06:51 can I improve it? And so will give you actual quantitative data to

06:55 that. Um And then we I think with a batch growth,

07:02 . So uh so remember, batch is basically you are making a

07:07 you put it in your little flask vessel, whatever you use. And

07:11 um you inoculate and basically you close . Although um unless it's an

07:18 we are going it kind of have to air, right? So we're

07:23 uh stir it, shake it up allow it to grow, right?

07:27 the only time we're going back in is to take a sample to measure

07:31 . How many cells have I got this point? So we do that

07:34 we're just basically tracking it throughout the life of the cell of the

07:39 OK. Birth to death. And when you do that, you

07:43 what's called the batch growth curve, ? So the stages are gonna be

07:48 same for whatever microbe you're growing. just that the the uh durations the

07:55 the lac face may be shorter or . The exponential growth may be very

08:03 , maybe it's not so fast, it's more slower. Uh it's at

08:06 rate, right? Stationary phase may short or long depends uh that

08:12 Of course, we are growth is declining. So they're dying at an

08:18 rate. So all four stages occur how long, how short, how

08:25 of a slope we have will vary on a number of factors. The

08:29 type media you're using et cetera. . So um all right,

08:37 that's a brief recap. Any OK. So let's um look at

08:46 , in fact. So, um is going beyond bad growth.

08:53 And that would definitely be of interest you if your goal was to really

08:59 cell growth. OK. For various , typically it's for in a,

09:05 a industrial commercial context. Typically it's of an enzyme, a protein uh

09:13 you want to commercialize. Uh it be the cell itself is the

09:17 So you may wanna just, and you're doing things on an industrial

09:20 eating lots of cells, OK. , um so if you're gonna do

09:27 , you're gonna have to beef up medium, so to speak.

09:32 Add more stuff to make them keep , right? Because remember what

09:36 the number one factor that influences growth carbon source, you'd add more carbon

09:42 you want to get more cells. ? And if you really get lots

09:46 growth, then you may, you in addition, need to add nitrogen

09:50 how, how many cells you're But you've become carbon limited, much

09:55 than you do become nitrogen limited. ? But anyway, those are things

10:00 can, you can manipulate. And the fed batch growth, you simply

10:03 taking that same vessel, right? you, you started with, you

10:08 it and then at some time you add more stuff and the thing

10:13 add is typically carbon and more right? And then it'll take off

10:17 . OK. That's why you see curve here. We added, we

10:21 um somewhere in this range we added fed feed, OK? Feed C

10:33 the cells take off, right. you can time this, you

10:35 you can do get an initial, an initial uh batch growth curve and

10:40 go OK. Well, if I it like to maybe right here,

10:49 have to take off very quickly right? If you wait, if

10:53 wait till you're in stationary phase, may have to wait a while for

10:56 to kick in again. All So that those, those kind of

10:58 can influence how fast you get But it will, you're probably more

11:02 , you're gonna get more cells. ? And um if you're just doing

11:07 in a vessel like this, a flask, right? There's, there's

11:12 . You can't keep doing this forever you could feed more than one

11:16 You can feed once, twice, times, but there's gonna be a

11:20 . And so, you know, product builded up ph changes occur.

11:24 so it just kind of craps so to speak. Ok.

11:29 but you do get a lot of . OK. So, um so

11:34 other way to control it is in bio react, OK. Uh And

11:38 could, and I've done this, but it's a pain in the butt

11:43 bacteria don't uh follow your time You have to follow their time

11:49 right? So they, they wanna fed at two in the morning,

11:51 gotta be there to feed them, ? So, um but you can

11:56 a ph indicator into your medium and . It turns kind of yellowish,

12:02 , reddish. OK. And so can both feed carbon and then look

12:07 the flask and say, oh, it becoming acidic? Is it becoming

12:09 basic? And they had acid the flask accordingly? And that

12:15 that will work. But again, a pain in the butt because you

12:17 to keep looking at it and making changes. So um manipulations rather.

12:23 use a, use a bio, might uh computer controlled will do everything

12:28 you, right? And you don't to get out of bed at night

12:31 go feed him. Ok. So is just such a reactor. Um

12:36 vessel. Yeah. Well, you all the uh the pumps here on

12:44 side, right? So you can in um as in base, you

12:49 your set points, uh add, um base if we get um below

12:59 or something like that at, at if we get above uh 7.5 or

13:04 . And so um it'll maintain that and uh then you can also

13:10 do some other manipulations, right? can feed, automatically feed at a

13:14 rate. So um this will cause high cell densities to occur.

13:20 And, um, the other of course, these are temperature

13:23 right. So, you, you a lot of cell growth thermodynamics,

13:26 ? You're gonna give off a lot heat. So these things have

13:29 our water jacket and water going around to, to cool it down or

13:34 temperature rather. Um, ok. , you know, if it's,

13:39 you, um, so you might , OK, if I wanna get

13:43 of cells and I, and I do this by feeding, worry about

13:56 . Well, if you do you'll find that um if you ever

14:04 everything up front, it doesn't doesn't even get going. But why

14:10 that be, why would it not growing? Ok. Anybody, you

14:16 everything up front and now it's, it's not growing or what this thing

14:21 go to like 100 0 DS. , what's stopping it from growing that

14:28 the cell in the liquid? Now just been adding all these nutrients and

14:32 , but you're not growing. Why you, why are you not

14:36 What's around you? Lots of, the word for molecules in a

14:44 Solutes, solute concentration is very right? So remember that osmolarity,

14:51 ? So if it's too, too solutes, right? The whole hypertonic

14:55 is happening, right? So maybe comes so many solutes now that the

15:00 it it's uh inhibiting growth because the is having to fight water loss to

15:06 surroundings. Right. And so now goes ok. Oh, I'm not

15:09 grow. Right. I can't It's just too many solutes. So

15:12 what you have to feed. Uh With a batch feed or feed

15:17 a regular intervals if you can in bio reactor, which I um if

15:22 , and this is another thing that happen if an aero aerobic bacterium run

15:27 liquid culture is adequately fed throughout. ? How you feed it so very

15:32 ? What uh can limit growth unless can control this somehow manipulate this.

15:38 it gonna run out of very Oxygen? Exactly. So um and

15:47 can happen rather quickly. And so for I can remember, remember the

15:52 , right? Glucose plus 0 right? If you co2 and water

15:57 energy, right? So it's consuming . Obviously, you get a

16:01 right? Remember the uh the bod ? In a wastewater treatment plant,

16:07 ? A lot of bod it's gonna the reification effect, right? Uh

16:12 all these matter, suck out right? So um so what you

16:18 do is I'm just showing you this I'm not, you're not gonna see

16:23 bi record diagram on a test. is just for those of you who

16:27 be interested in this ie biotech you may be running one of these

16:32 one day. OK? Um So you do is right? Air So

16:39 contraption here coupled with this, Uh What, what's called ad O

16:47 , right? So the bod you can use it dissolves oxygen probe

16:51 measure 02 going away. It's the thing, just put it into the

16:55 . OK. So you can monitor . And so as 02 goes

17:01 what can you do? Well, up, speed up the storing,

17:06 ? That's what the uh that's what uh right here. Does this impeller

17:11 call it, right? This apparatus begin to spin more quickly,

17:15 And this, this is all you , all you can control all this

17:18 , you just program to go. ? When dissolved oxygen gets down to

17:22 right there, increased speed of impeller increased amount of air coming in.

17:31 . So that happens as well. ? And you this thing called a

17:37 , OK? And don't worry about . OK? So I'm not gonna

17:41 is not gonna be in the right? So, but uh I

17:45 , you know off chance you may that term. We go. What's

17:49 ? Your boss will be impressed that know it, right? So,

17:52 anyway, so sparger is basically that that forces air into tiny holes.

18:01 ? Because tiny gas bubbles are better what? Than big gas bubbles solubilized

18:09 the liquid, right? So small want small tiny bubbles that,

18:13 that better is solubilized liquid. So plus getting more air in to a

18:19 and then spinning it real fast. helps both. All that helps to

18:24 the gas very quickly into the OK? And then the cells can

18:28 it up right and begin to So anyway, so like I

18:32 you got ph Control, as you here, nutrient input here. So

18:37 computer controlled, you can get super cell densities. OK? And then

18:43 if it's a industrial scale for so it's not like something, this

18:49 maybe like five liter size or something 10 liter. Uh it can be

18:53 500 liter tank or 1000 liter OK? And what happens there is

19:00 it's when you're ready to harvest the , you would typically um take a

19:05 out, put it in uh bottles you put it in a centrifuge,

19:10 ? And these all the cells will it out at the bottom of the

19:14 and you pour off the liquid, ? So an industrial scale, these

19:19 can be quite large. And so happens is you, you throw a

19:25 and liquid comes out, OK? the liquid comes into liquid being the

19:32 , right? It goes to think of it as an automated centrifuge

19:37 continuously runs and goes right into the and it spins it automatically. So

19:43 a fancy setup. I've, I've that before. And so it kind

19:46 just basically centrifuges as it comes in you get this big thick, thick

19:51 of paste, which is just basically of cells. OK? So um

19:55 you can combine this, you may this, this might be the upstream

20:00 , right? Where's my uh bia ? Is he here here?

20:06 So this is the upstream process. else can you do with that stuff

20:12 come out, right. That's your processing. You gone over that yet

20:16 class. OK? That's coming. . So, downstream processing.

20:23 so if you wanted to, you , do maybe you have to do

20:26 to it, right? Maybe you to um uh concentrate it. Maybe

20:29 have to take, maybe you have take some molecules out of it or

20:32 . So you can go downstream That kind of goes into the

20:35 right? They do their thing. you know, maybe they have

20:39 a filtration apparatus or something to kind filter stuff out or whatever the the

20:43 is, maybe you have to take cells and you wanna lice them and

20:47 you wanna get the DNA at them something, right? You can,

20:51 can then feed into a process where happens. So this is where if

20:56 the person running the bio reactor, is where you work with engineers and

21:00 those kind of things downstream processing. you kind of work together to make

21:04 all work. OK? Anyway, more information than you wanted to

21:09 None of which will be, will tested on. So, don't worry

21:12 , oh, you're gonna see spar you're gonna see, you know,

21:15 reactor on a test. But, , anyway, so I put this

21:20 in here. All right. So is a way you can actually,

21:25 you're, if you're limited, just a flask to grow stuff, you

21:28 actually manipulate that. Right. So see, you're probably used to seeing

21:33 a regular flat bottom Eyre flask, ? So you see how this uh

21:38 thing has little um indentations in specially made for, for growing

21:45 right? And what that does is you're way too, to maximize air

21:51 in there is to shake it, ? You shake it and if you

21:56 it with these little indentations, it more turbulence. So you can actually

21:59 , you can compare growth in a bottom, someone like this, you

22:03 get a lot better growth with these you get more air turbulence and mixing

22:06 stuff. OK. So, um again, it's, you know,

22:11 aerobic types, it's, and you're into high density, it's, it's

22:15 , they rapidly get low on So you try to do what you

22:19 to maximize that. OK. Um questions. Uh Right. So now

22:29 last two things we're gonna talk about in terms of four chapter four.

22:33 this is typically there's gonna be two here back to back. So let

22:38 get that going. So this is a stress driven phenomenon initiated by a

22:46 of nutrients or other type of Ok. Could be, could be

22:51 temp, maybe Ph. Ok. like to name a few.

23:01 Oh, yes. Hm. Here on 1918, let's see.

23:38 going to predict. Let's see. got 209. I'll say 220 correct

23:45 . I'm sorry. 2 20. on baby. 01 47.

23:52 Not close. All right. 1 . Yes. In those four

23:55 OK. Um Let's look at the one real quick. OK. So

24:04 one, so a surface and the to attach your absolute requirements for.

24:15 see, let me speed this up little bit. Another 30 seconds.

24:22 . Um I'll say 200 correct answers time. 200. Mhm. You

24:39 do 10. Hm. OK. I say uh 200. Let's see

24:50 close. 02 60. Look at . OK. All right. Uh

24:57 , what, what was it? didn't see what letter everybody picked.

25:00 . See correct biofilm formation. Uh So first we'll talk about biofilm

25:07 here again. All right. So biofilm formation. Um OK.

25:17 number one, it's not a random together of microbe. OK? It's

25:26 uh orchestrated process. It's a gene process. Um It is, it

25:35 as it, as that question has , uh it's all about a

25:39 It's all about a surface, attaching a surface and then growing like

25:44 basically. Ok. So it is species specific phenomenon. Ok. But

25:52 but of course these things get large it can trap other things can get

25:57 in it. Ok. But um they're made by, you know,

26:02 species can either make it or they . So it, it's,

26:06 it's not just a random process. . So what is common to all

26:10 them is of course, you, begin with a little bit of,

26:14 attachment of a few cells that then if the environment is favorable, it

26:25 begin to initiate uh differentiate to a um by making the attachment more permanent

26:33 you will. OK. Um And of course, growth increases.

26:39 And then it keeps going. And now basically these three pitches are growth

26:44 , less than two dimensions on the , but then quickly becomes more goes

26:50 , you know, all three right? It becomes what they call

26:54 biofilm tower, right? So obviously a lots lots of cells there.

27:00 . So, uh you know, terms of, and, and these

27:03 found really they're prevalent everywhere, in um bodies of water in um

27:12 environments. Um And um you basically anywhere where there can be a

27:18 , right? And water, the , in fact, you can form

27:22 of growth, right? Um Obviously uh terrestrial environment, soil is the

27:29 , right. Um, very you know, industrially in pipes and

27:33 pipes and shower curtain, um, teeth, right. Plaque. These

27:39 all biofilms, uh medically important Uh uh any sort of think of

27:46 are medical devices? They, they a surface, right? A

27:49 a breathing tube, ventilation tube, uh different types of body part

27:56 right, hips, knees, uh cetera. These all can provide surfaces

28:00 so where you can get a biofilm is, is when the person handling

28:06 device uh doesn't handle it. Right. Maybe they're not using proper

28:10 pe and they contaminate with their hands this these things come sterility, packaged

28:17 when they're not handled properly, then can introduce a biofilm forming pathogen.

28:22 ? Just like this catheter here. And so staph infection results and there

28:29 staff types that can form biofilm. they do and the nature of BioFoam

28:34 lots of growth and um a very film, OK. Forms that can

28:43 Impenetrable to a degree by antibiotics. . And so uh biofilm infection takes

28:50 long time to really um cure it you will. Ok. Long,

28:56 , long uh period of antibiotic Ok. So very um problematic certainly

29:05 hospital settings. Ok. So let's at the process. Ok. So

29:16 and it's again some more examples and the uh the sugar snake here uh

29:22 was experienced that one of the uh I had, was you produce microbial

29:29 for like, restaurants and things to, um, either help with

29:34 grease traps or, um, this , this, this, these things

29:40 , uh, in the, in restaurants, convenience. So wherever

29:43 fill up your soda, right. one of those thingies, uh,

29:48 . Ok. And so there's all of tubing, right? That goes

29:51 like a, a syrup, syrupy in co2, blah, blah,

29:56 . Right. And so under the conditions, those pipes can, can

30:02 with a biofilm and uh produce like odors and things. And uh and

30:10 uh basically a biofilm we used to those things sugar snakes for some

30:13 somebody coined that term but pretty OK. And so, OK.

30:18 how does this process happen? Well, here are the five

30:23 OK. And again, this is coordinated through chemical signals, uh genes

30:29 turned on to initiate each process. so initiation attachment, maturation, maintenance

30:36 dissolution where kind of parts of it come off and then to kind of

30:41 bio elsewhere. OK. So we what are called planktonic cells. Uh

30:48 they call them swimmers and the opposite are called stickers, they stick to

30:54 surface. And so the planktonic cells kind of the free swimming, free

30:58 types, right? That are seeking land on the surface. OK.

31:04 then after that would be the so they become stickers through the through

31:10 formation of slash pia. OK. what you need to stick to something

31:17 maturation uh is basically the growing of . OK. So you have,

31:22 a constant for our biofilms is this opposite formation, which can also contain

31:28 some proteins in there. It's kind the glue that holds it all

31:33 OK. Then maintenance is basically just , you know, the, the

31:39 growth of it, the um um of it, ok. Uh The

31:44 maintain, maintenance of it. And in the process, of course,

31:49 grows and uh but it can um know, if you imagine sustaining a

31:56 with the millions and millions of souls , you're gonna have to have

32:00 a steady supply of nutrients to keep thing going, ok? And that's

32:05 often why you see it in a , right? Because they typically have

32:07 constant flow going through it, right nutrients. And so they can sustain

32:12 BioFoam for a long time, But you know, but you're also

32:16 see differences, right? BioFoam gets big and thick, you'll have little

32:22 environments in there where the cells will slightly different in terms of, you

32:27 , some may be getting more nutrients the outside of biofilm than those on

32:31 inside, right? So they can some metabolic di the metabolic differences within

32:37 biofilm. And so, um and some, some of those that become

32:43 , maybe you kind of break off then go elsewhere to form a biofilm

32:46 in a different location. So it's the life life of a of a

32:52 . OK. And so here just of shows you that process. So

32:56 qum sensing phenomenon we see in a of two or three examples this

33:04 this is one another one we'll see the context of um transformation in the

33:09 next unit transformation is cells that take DNA from the environment. We also

33:15 that as a quorum quorum sensing So, and what it is,

33:19 all about how many cell numbers are , right? So if you're familiar

33:24 um what's it called parliamentarian rules, ? Yet there are enough people present

33:30 , to vote to and a And so the same thing here,

33:34 all kind of cell density driven. um so it begins by cells attaching

33:43 the surface. OK. Now, me say that the attachment at this

33:49 is is reversible, right? So can go one of two ways it

33:53 continue on or become reversible. And the attractions I did some more

33:59 into this than what your book There's actually like attractive forces. If

34:05 recall from chemistry, Vanderwal Forces, . Um Those kind of attractions can

34:11 of keep the cells there for a . If it's gonna be become a

34:16 , it's gonna have to be a permanent attachment. OK? And that's

34:20 they'll develop. Pill. I re , OK? For that purpose,

34:25 only to attach to the surface but to each other. OK. And

34:31 , but again, it's all mediated these chemical signals. OK. So

34:35 may get the formation initially of some colonies. OK? We call it

34:41 represent, you know, like tiny of cells here there, right?

34:44 a full blown colony. And um chemical signals then are set up.

34:50 if there's enough cells there, then produce enough signal and you reach a

34:57 . OK? And if you reach threshold, then you'll go into biofilm

35:01 . So it becomes a more permanent . And so that's kind of this

35:06 what signals uh that threshold kind of where OK. Now we develop to

35:13 of stick. OK? And then form the polysac exo polysaccharide there and

35:19 to form as well. OK? so again, you're turning on,

35:23 course, different genes to initiate these . OK? And um so the

35:30 Saar formation is kind of what holds together. You may have switching

35:36 OK. So pim that motion on surface pili extending and then retracting and

35:42 may have some kind of motion but you're gonna get growth in all

35:47 dimensions. OK? And now now you're in the obviously mature biofilm

35:53 . And but again, you can differences oops see differences here on the

36:00 of the biofilm versus the exterior. . And cell types may vary.

36:05 I've even read where the types on inside are not getting the same nutrients

36:11 the ones on the outside are So they'll actually send out signals that

36:17 tell the peripheral microbe bacteria to hey, slow down on your eating

36:24 that some of that fruit can trickle to us here in the inside.

36:27 they, they've actually documented that kind kind of shooting going on.

36:31 um it's a very interesting, it's also, you know, in the

36:36 of uh medically important biofilms, the of antibiotics, right? That's uh

36:45 if they're trying to, they're treating biofilm infection for the antibiotics can't get

36:53 very well either. Ok. So may see because you see differences

36:59 in, in metabolic types in, the biofilm, someone may have more

37:04 to more resistance than others. And can then be an issue as well

37:09 there is more resistant types then grow . And so now you got,

37:12 got that problem to deal with. . So that's been seen as

37:16 So, um so, you and it's thought that bios are really

37:22 throughout the environment uh in, in different forms. OK. So,

37:27 like I said, typically at some point, uh some members

37:32 are, are just not gonna be to handle the lack of nutrients,

37:37 which can happen just because the, amount of nutrients coming into the system

37:42 just lessened or whatever. And so will break off and go elsewhere to

37:48 more favorable environment. OK? To the whole thing. OK. So

37:56 let's see any questions about bio, . And they can grow these in

38:02 . I um I was looking at youtube videos and they, they grow

38:06 and um um and a little uh , micro, well, what they

38:13 a plastic dish that has a bunch little wells in it. And they

38:16 these little metal metal uh mesh, metal mesh things in, into

38:24 into the wells and they inoculate And then you see this film form

38:28 top of the metal rings, it's cool. So, um and then

38:34 of the organism that we use in used it this week for lab

38:40 That's one that one because I see grow weird in the um in the

38:44 tube and I'm growing it up and , it forms like this,

38:47 it actually forms a film on, the, on the glass right near

38:50 liquid air interface. So it's uh interesting. So um anyhow, uh

38:57 flip to the next one. So in this formation, um and

39:04 are so many things, look across whole um periodic periodic spores,

39:16 Fungal spores were aware of that um pollen, right? Uh protozoans form

39:25 like cysts. OK. Uh All are kind of dormant forms of the

39:32 . Ok. So they're viable. . Or they can remain viable for

39:38 some time. Uh, and much a plant seed, you just have

39:43 , you know, under favorable conditions grow germinate, we call it.

39:48 . So, you know, all forms probably have some kind of um

39:52 , at least they have kind of dormant forms if you will.

39:56 Now, and spores and the term is used um is used, you

40:02 , in different, for different types well, right? Fungal spores.

40:05 can have bacterial spores that aren't in spores as well. Um But the

40:12 itself, that, that particular one the most resistant form. Ok.

40:18 to radiation. Um, temperature uh ph extremes. It's, it's

40:25 we have to use an autoclave for stuff is to kill end those

40:29 Ok. And so they can remain as you can see for quite some

40:36 . And so, um I remember seen a number of times when uh

40:41 Egyptian, uh what do you call ? Right. The king cuts and

40:45 that stuff. They open those things , they've recovered in those bores uh

40:49 those and have revived them and those more like maybe 5 to 10,000 years

40:56 . Now, here we're talking you know, quarter of a million

40:59 old, 40 million years old. so the endos spores are what you

41:05 . So, here's uh they look this. OK. That's actually in

41:09 cell. It's in the process of a, in those four. Here's

41:12 free in those four right there. . Uh Here's more here,

41:17 So, quite obvious. OK. so, um so this represents,

41:23 course, a very resistant form that viable for a long time.

41:30 Um And so there's only two groups form these particular types. OK.

41:36 Clostridium and bacillus. And so in of pathogens, clostridium has a number

41:43 pathogens and lots of they're toxin So, botulism, tetanus, uh

41:50 gas gangrene, you see there and also a toxin producer. These are

41:53 clostridium. OK? And um the difference between the two groups is right

41:59 is their uh usage of oxygen and botulism later in the context of

42:12 But uh they're both soil organisms, microbes, that's where you find

42:18 So you all heard step on a nail, gotta get a tetanus

42:21 right? Because the nail is in ground dirt and you know, contaminated

42:25 those spores of plus and and you be able to get, you might

42:29 tetanus from that. So you have get a shot, right? So

42:33 any case, these are a defense against stress conditions, right? Run

42:40 of food or some other stress it induce in those four formation.

42:46 And so like biofilm formation, this also a genetic program to this

42:53 OK. And it takes quite a actually from start to finish um to

42:58 the complete tree in those four, hours. And um during that

43:05 I guess you'd say what's going on a compartmentalization is going on in the

43:12 as well as um a reduction in . Right? So it's water

43:18 whether it's high temp or low it's water that does the damage because

43:23 low temp, they form ice crystals can puncture the cell, at high

43:28 , the water boils and can be proteins and things. So if you

43:33 remember, life has 70% water, ? So if you can lower that

43:37 of water, that will help in of preservation. So that's, and

43:42 what you see happening as well. those four formation is a reduction in

43:46 water content. OK? So, so let's look at this process.

43:54 And so the cell types you right? So if you put it

43:57 those four form under the microscope and can just do a gram stain,

44:02 ? Um You'll see the different And so what we see here is

44:07 a vegetative cell. So the vegetative is kind of the the usual functional

44:13 of the cell, right? The that grows and divides the one that's

44:16 vegetative type. Um That's what you here. It has no endospore in

44:21 at all. OK? So um then you're going to see also vegetative

44:26 that are in the process of forming spor, right? So you see

44:30 forming in the middle of the OK? Then you can have just

44:35 one, these are, it's gone it, it's completed. Now you

44:38 a free endospore. So you see three types, of course, the

44:42 proportions of the three types you see give you an indication of how much

44:49 it's under, right? So if see a uh where it's mostly just

44:52 end those board and yeah, you know, it's, it's gone

44:55 some stress and it's uh carrying the out. But if it's all strictly

45:01 cells, then it's probably nice and . OK. So um and so

45:06 , you can go from uh and those four back to vegetative growth under

45:11 right conditions. That's, that's the process. OK. And so uh

45:15 , I just threw this in just kind of give you the whole picture

45:19 , but I'm not gonna test you the different types. OK. But

45:24 can um use it as a way identify species among these endos four forms

45:30 the, the spor location where it or, or in the process,

45:36 swell the cell, some do some . So you see here uh swollen

45:43 and here uh non swollen over And the terminal sub terminal is the

45:49 terminal at one end, central in middle, sub terminal in between those

45:54 . So, and it can be , a species specific specific thing how

45:59 looks when it forms the endospore, are so, all right. So

46:05 begin the process with um since we're create a this entity called the endos

46:14 we're going to replicate the DNA replicate chromosome first. OK. Step

46:20 And then we're gonna kind of create elongated form what we call an axial

46:28 . OK. So it's basically just chromosome, the two copies of the

46:31 , right? And then one goes its own compartment. OK. That's

46:35 where we get the compartmentalization occurring. the four bore is where the front

46:41 or on here, the left, little smaller one on the left

46:45 the force board that's gonna become the . OK? And so what's going

46:51 while that's happening is the mother OK? Is kind of directing the

46:58 . That's why you see the arrow kind of toward the force for

47:02 Those are like um the mother's cell is producing that transcription factors um

47:11 that are turning certain genes on in 44 chromosome. OK. And so

47:17 worry about it. Yeah, but factors are things that control expression of

47:22 , right? So there's specific ones turn on the those involved in in

47:27 four formation at different times, So it's kind of that's what the

47:30 cell is kind of coordinating that part the process. OK. So um

47:37 uh next stage, so the end then is forming from this force

47:43 So you see how the mother cell engulfing this, OK. Uh That

47:48 form basically a double membrane, And in here is where we're gonna

47:55 it in with um pepto ICA pep material will be filled in to that

48:01 . Uh It's gonna become the So the cortex is basically a thick

48:04 of pepto glycan. OK? And see that the mother cell DNA here

48:10 is, is degrading, it's gonna away, right? So that,

48:12 goes away. And now it's a blown development of, of the uh

48:19 . OK? And so, dili DP A and calcium, OK.

48:25 those are unique to this process. ? And so what they do,

48:31 DP A um kind of stabilizes the um protects it. OK? Um

48:41 the combination of DP A, that's DP A DP A, that's what

48:51 stuff. That's the abbreviation for um nic acid. So DP A calcium

48:57 form a complex OK? In, the cortex. OK. And that

49:03 to kind of bind up water, ? So that's just where you get

49:07 , the desiccation occurring. The the removal of some of the water uh

49:12 through that complex. OK. Um then uh exo per, don't worry

49:19 that. So anyway, we're forming mature endos four here which will then

49:25 the cell, right. So, rest of the cell deteriorates around it

49:29 you're left with a free spor and spor. Ok. And of

49:33 that can remain viable then for, you saw millions of years in some

49:39 . Ok. So, um, again, it's all initiated,

49:44 It's all kicked off by some kind a stress, right? Lack of

49:49 , you know, bombardment with Ph, changes, whatever.

49:54 That's what, that's what starts the process. OK. Um And what

50:00 ? Um, there's something else Oops. OK. Any questions about

50:07 SPS? OK. We're very right? We've all, there's all

50:12 types of spores, right? But put Endo in the front of it

50:18 kicks it up a notch, Because again, we literally use an

50:22 play to get rid of these right? Because if we didn't have

50:25 those sports, we would have to an auto, right? You,

50:28 with some other kind of uh method um very, very resistant.

50:34 Any questions for, forget about OK. All right. Um And

50:41 bacillus, um anthrax, anthrax is . So anthrax is, is,

50:47 uh, have you heard of the somebody getting uh anthrax spores in

50:52 in the, in the mail, ? That's you, you can form

50:55 things, right? So, um of course it germinates and you

51:00 you get an anthrax. OK. , all right. So we're gonna

51:05 the switch now. Um to chapter . Chapter six is viruses.

51:13 And so, um so this first is really just about, here's how

51:19 define a virus. There's a structure a virus, here's how we classify

51:25 . OK. Um The second part really all about how they replicate so

51:32 life cycles. OK. Um We'll into kind of the basics of viral

51:40 . Um But let's uh let me this thing up here. Let's look

51:44 this question first. OK. So of the following is false concerning

51:55 OK. Let's take a look. similar. Hm. OK.

52:34 OK. Let me pause here at . Uh There is a false answer

52:40 . OK. So you need to your, change your answer. Go

52:45 . Yes. Um OK. So , there is a false answer.

52:57 is. OK. Let's see. course. Right? It's B

53:04 So they're not Akea, they're not , they're not e caros,

53:11 To their own thing. All they're not cells, right? But

53:18 certainly there is probably everything on earth gets affected by some kind of a

53:25 . OK. Uh So let's go some of these. Um We'll elaborate

53:32 these uh points here as we go . So, um OK. Discovery

53:38 briefly here. Uh OK. So mosaic virus, um although they didn't

53:47 they couldn't see it back then as talking like turn of the century,

53:50 turn of the 20th century, um um and they found plants that had

54:08 uh disease that affected the leaves that very like splotchy colored and obviously uh

54:14 able to photosynthesize correctly. And you know, sick plants more or

54:18 , right? So they go. so, so, of course,

54:21 this time, germ theory was, known, we all we knew about

54:25 at this time. And so the inclination was OK, let's follow hoax

54:31 1234. And we'll find out that some kind of a, a microbe

54:36 this disease, right? And so proceeded to take, you know,

54:40 experiment, take the disease leaves, them up. It's kind of a

54:47 paste or something. If you will resuspended in buffer and run it through

54:54 filter, right? They had filters could trap uh bacteria. OK?

55:00 when they did this, they OK, we'll trap them on the

55:05 , we'll scrape it off the put it on a healthy leaf and

55:10 leaf will then become diseased. they didn't see that, right.

55:15 somebody had the idea to say, , well, let's not mess with

55:18 stuff on the filter because clearly it's that that's causing a disease. It's

55:23 in that. Let's look at what through the filter, the liquid,

55:27 ? It passed through these small And then when they applied that to

55:31 leaves, boom, they got came with the disease. So clearly,

55:36 thought OK. This is something super , right? And they didn't have

55:46 obviously need electron microscope to see So that's um that was like 30

55:50 40 years later when they discovered So anyway, um so these super

55:58 nanometer scale entities, right? Um um occupy that shelf in life.

56:08 is, is it life, is not life? And so um we

56:14 about this previously, the um you could say they're alive when they're

56:20 the host, right? When they're a host, you can't really say

56:23 alive, they don't exhibit any properties a cell as well because we call

56:28 a sailor. OK. So um uh uh they require a host first

56:36 foremost, right to, to replicate . They um as mentioned, they

56:40 , they were probably across the board life, something has a virus that

56:45 them and in terms of the So we're talking about this kind of

56:49 the end of, of next But um the role of viruses in

56:55 environment be very important in, in really maintaining uh species diversity in the

57:11 in many ways. OK. And my, when I studied this

57:17 it was OK. Virus, I see nothing that viruses do

57:20 you know, cause disease, but actually do a very important role in

57:23 environment and we'll talk about that uh the end. But um anyway,

57:28 mama. So that, so like things, certainly like microbes, other

57:33 , they span different size ranges, ? So the tiniest ones,

57:37 the tobacco mosaic virus is actually on low end in terms of size.

57:42 is on the high end, uh uh a micron in size.

57:47 uh we'll mention that today. But time there's actually now viruses that are

57:51 than this called giant viruses that that are over a micron in

57:56 And so, um, so you extremes there as well. So

58:03 um, let's look at this question . OK. So what's the following

58:12 a to e could not be used a criterion uh to identify a

58:20 OK. What would not make sense identify a virus with this?

58:29 And like the previous question, it's f OK. Uh So there

58:37 there is one that fits OK. , sorry. OK. Oops.

59:01 . 8543 in case I any Good. Yes, it is.

59:14 can't give them glucose and hope they'll . Ok. Uh They don't really

59:20 a metabolism in that sense like they , they don't have glycolysis, they

59:25 have so aspiration. OK. So rely on the host for that.

59:32 . But certainly, um, an , you take acid type, et

59:37 , you could all use that to a virus. OK. So let's

59:43 at the definition again, we use cellular to describe viruses, right?

59:49 You don't have the property you're familiar the properties of a cell are

59:53 A cell can replicate on its A cell can uh take in a

59:58 sources, produce energy, right? uh synthesize proteins, et cetera.

60:05 all the things we know cells can , right? They can't do all

60:08 things. And so viruses for that require host. That's what we call

60:13 . Obligate. Obligate means they they must do this obligate intracellular

60:19 OK. So at the most any virus will have a coat protein

60:28 and a genome, all viruses have feature. OK. Um And in

60:35 you look ahead, so viro and are not viruses. OK? So

60:44 , they're the, they're each their thing, right? So, so

60:47 virus is 11 type, then there's viro, then there's a prion,

60:53 ? So don't, you don't, don't use those terms interchangeably,

60:57 So a virus is a virus prime a prion. Viro is a

61:00 OK. So, um OK. the name we used to call the

61:05 is a caption, right? So of multiple units. Um again,

61:12 can't self replicate and we're gonna go a basic uh viral life cycle.

61:18 note that as we go into next into specifics about viral life cycles,

61:23 all kinds of variations that occur. . So, um so let's look

61:29 this question, in fact, which the following is not necessarily a requirement

61:39 replication of all all not doesn't apply all. All right. And,

61:47 , ok, once again, don't that, I'm just gonna start leaving

61:54 off. I don't like, but have to keep it in there because

61:58 gonna see it on the test. once you get out of the,

62:02 know, what I need to do make, make the correct answer sometimes

62:06 that you don't get afraid of picking if you need to. Ok.

62:25 . Yeah. Ok. Ok. gonna say 22 10 is gonna be

62:42 correct correct number here. 210. ok. 1 40. Ok.

62:50 , I'm bad at this. All . Um it is a, it's

62:55 that's not a requirement for all. . Not a requirement for all.

63:00 . Um D was the other Yeah. So um in terms of

63:08 one, a number of people picked so it's that is gonna be because

63:18 um ok, I now I can why you might pick that. All

63:25 . So who picked DD as in ? See I think you may be

63:29 as well. I I'm gonna see you know why you may be

63:32 Anybody picked DD as in dog or if you did or 80 something did

63:37 did? Ok. So why did pick D no RN A?

63:46 So if it's RN A virus, would need to use the OXY.

63:49 right. So that's why that's As well. So, um,

63:54 if you, yeah, for for that reason, then,

63:57 so not all, so A is . Right? And because not all

64:03 have to do that many DNA viruses like HIV does, but not

64:08 But, and then as he right, you can have an RN

64:12 virus, right? If you have RN A virus, they would need

64:16 use these, right? They can . Right. So both of those

64:20 be correct. So the correct answer uh G, all right, both

64:28 A and B. All right. , all right. OK. So

64:36 all right, you know, obviously all get credit for that. So

64:39 worry about it. All right. , but is that the reasoning?

64:43 sense? OK. All right. uh let's look at this. So

64:49 uh again, so what you're gonna here, you know, is

64:57 Well, let's just go through All right. So this first step

65:00 absolutely every virus has got to do . OK? And that's be able

65:06 um recognize the host obviously, So this is all about what's on

65:11 periphery, right? So viral surface , uh host cell surface proteins,

65:20 , you know the things that are the surface, right? So recognition

65:23 specific molecules you gotta have that if doesn't happen, then the virus is

65:28 going to infect, right? And beyond that, then you have different

65:34 , right? So uh different things needs from the host. Really depends

65:40 the type of virus. It right. RN A virus, DNA

65:45 . Ok. Um Even within DNA . So you need a DNA ply

65:52 copy the genome. If you're a virus, you may have your

65:55 you may use the hosts. An RN A virus wouldn't care,

65:59 doesn't need that, but it would AAA plym. Uh Of course,

66:03 need it for, for um copying genome if you're an RN A

66:08 Uh But there's also different types of A plumb races because you need a

66:12 to transcribe, right? Um Of , ribosomes, Trnas, nucleotides,

66:19 come from the host, OK? But again, they don't have a

66:24 , right? So they don't as I mentioned, Glyco or these

66:27 of things, right? So they on the, the host.

66:31 So, so what uh so of , step one is get inside the

66:36 once if you're, if you're recognized the host get inside and there can

66:40 variations here. It may be the thing comes in, maybe it's just

66:46 genome comes in. So you see . OK? Um Then of

66:51 making copies that's universal. All viruses do that, right? Um Because

66:56 thing you remember here is this is coming in, all right, and

67:00 coming out are multiple viral particles. ? So if that's the case,

67:06 gotta make multiple copies of the genome they're each gonna be stuffed into

67:12 the progeny viral particles, right? you've also then got to make uh

67:19 some variations are maybe before it does it goes into the host chromosome,

67:25 ? So the types that do um but even if it's going to

67:29 then revert. So while it's in host chromosome, it's kind of just

67:32 out as the cell divides, its divides, right? So, um

67:37 it was gonna replicate itself, it's have to go back to making copies

67:43 then doing forming this basically factory, the cell as a factory to make

67:49 , right? Intracellular uh replication OK. And so that of

67:55 involves transcribing, translating viral genes because wanna make the parts right? We

68:01 to, we have to create this , right? Create these inside the

68:07 now and multiples of them, So we have to make copies of

68:11 , we have to make viral proteins assemble everything, right? And so

68:17 and so the word I use the and virus interchangeably, right? Um

68:26 think that's OK. A virologist may me upside the head, but I

68:32 this in that mean the same thing me. All right. So don't

68:37 not, there's no difference to OK. Um Anyway, so,

68:41 this is what we're assembling and making viral particles, right? So you're

68:45 have to need, that's why you to make copies of genome and new

68:48 proteins. OK. So, and they exit, right? You go

68:53 to infect more sense. OK. again, the basic cycle for any

68:59 , but as I pointed out, gonna be variations here and there,

69:04 the outcome is the same. Um OK. So viral infectivity relates

69:11 what? Well, if you're gonna effective, you gotta be able to

69:17 your host, right? So it relates to those proteins on the host

69:23 or glycoprotein molecules on the host cell . So it's all about recognizing

69:29 OK. So whether you um can that and like recognize the host,

69:36 ? Uh when you get in these are viral particles being that have

69:40 been made, right? But getting is the key, you have to

69:43 able to recognize the host. which is what this is all

69:47 And so host range. Uh so have host range, there's 22

69:55 Let me just put it, put all up here. OK? So

69:59 range and what we call tropism, ? So these are two, two

70:04 things we have this related but OK. And that, so the

70:11 range is a, a particular viral and how many different hosts in in

70:19 fact, the classic example is right, squirrels, dogs,

70:23 humans, bats, et cetera can be infected by the rabies virus,

70:28 ? So the broad host range, . Mumps measles HIV. Very

70:35 Right? Humans are the only ones infected by these. Ok.

70:41 tropism is within the single host. . So if we take the,

70:48 rabies virus, which can have a host range, you can infect different

70:54 animals. Now, just look at inside of a squirrel, for

70:59 Right. What are the different tissue ? It can infect in that squirrel

71:05 ? Ok. And, um, rabies virus it's, it's um it's

71:11 cells, in fact, nerve Ok. And in fact, it's

71:15 be the same, same tissue type all the different hosts in us.

71:20 a, in a, in a , in a squirrel, it will

71:24 be just nerve cells. Ok. So that's a very narrow tropism,

71:32 narrow specific. So the point is range, host range. How many

71:37 host tropism, how many different cell in a single host? Ok.

71:43 so uh Ebola, so here's right? Specific for those receptors on

71:50 uh respiratory tract. Ok. Um narrow, a broad uh tropism is

72:00 like Ebola. Ebola can actually infect um epithelial cells. Um endothelial cells

72:08 make up, make up blood vessels things. And so multiple cell

72:14 that's why it's so deadly. If you have Ebola, it's a

72:19 death because you have fluids coming out everywhere. Ok. So it is

72:25 a 80 90% mortality rate. So, um no, again,

72:31 , narrow, right? And but, but remember the difference between

72:35 two things, right? Host range tropism, right? Multiple hosts and

72:40 within a host. Ok. All . That's, that's good folks.

72:44 we'll pick it up next week. weekend. Coming up. 76

72:53 Yeah. Be over after today, think.
