In this post I'm gonna talk about a new chapter that we have learnt with Dr. Wan which is the Introduction to Microbial Systematic. Life on earth can be classified into 5 kingdom. This include Monera, Protists, Fungi, Plantae and Animalia.

| Whittaker's Five kingdom |
Before that, we need to know what is the systematic microbiology first. Systematic microbiology is the study the diversity of microorganisms and their relationship.
Do anyone think what is the purpose of learning all of this? lemme tell you.
1) This is because as the microbiologist we should be able to differentiate the microbe wether they are culturable or not.
2) To know the special growth factor
3) To understand the unique feature in each organisms.
In the kingdom of monera whic is the procaryote, we can divided them into four categories based bacterial cell wall.
1) Gram -ve bacteria and cell walls
2) Gram +ve bacteria and cell wall
3) Wall-less bacteria
4) Arcaebacteria
Next, we also learnt about the bacteria. For your information, bacteria is the group of monera/ procaryote. As I mentioned above, they can be divided into four categories. Each categories hold different feature. For example, gram +ve bacteria have thick peptidoglycan while gram -ve have B-lactamase and porin. The wall-less bacteria is able to become pliable which mean they can be in any shape. Mycoplasma is in this group.
p/s : The extra information that I gained in the class :
1) Beta-lactamase is the enzymme than can provide resistance to B-Lactam bacteria such as penicillin, cephamycins, and carbapenems. This enzymme can be found in the porin in GRAM -VE BACTERIA ONLY.
We also did a grouping activity which is the mind map. So, the website that we used was POPPLET.COM ! YOU CAN CLICK HERE
Dr. wan is the one who suggested to us as it can form connection between many people in one mind map. COOL, RIGHT?

My muddiest point : I SHOULD ALWAYS REVISED WHAT IVE LEARNED AND SO FAR I GOT NO PROBLEM IN THE LECTURE. :)
Thats all from me!
