Disease transmission: In the early 1300s - we saw the maps of the ___________ spread. In the early 1300s - maps of the PLAGUE spread. Where we saw the plague go across Europe coming out of Asia.
In which YEAR did we discover the CONCEPT OF INFECTION PROCESS? 1500s
What are 3 processes in which contribute to the infectious process? 1. Direct 2. Distant 3. Fomites
Sharing personal contact (Ex: Grandmother getting sick in a bush) is a ___________ infectious process. Direct: Personal contact that can cause infection.
Cholera/explosive diarrhea, rice weather stools that are spread via water is a _____________ type of infectious process. Distant: infection like Cholera/explosive diarrhea, rice weather stools that are spread via water.

Robert Hooke's compound microscope was designed with how many potential lenses? Hooke's compound microscope had 2-3 potential lenses that allows you to increase the magnification
With Robert Hooke's compound microscope, having more than just 1 lens allowed you to do what? Increase the magnification with a multiple of each lens.
Back in the day with less amount of research, many people hypothesized that things that just appeared out of nowhere occured, this is not true but is known as what? SPONTANEOUS GENERATION

________________ (name) known in 1822 - 1895 that created the Swan-necked flasks - 1860 that killed the theory of spontaneous generation. Louis Pasteur
Pasteur also discovered a process called _____________ in 1857 - 1861 in which he looked at Aerobic and Anaerobic (first life without air) in which wine manufacturers questioned why the wine turns into vinegar. FERMENTATION - Pasteur discovered that the wine was being contaminated with organisms that would produce acetic acid with ethanol and make vinegar. Anaerobic fermentation.
Pasteur also discovered ______________ which is a process that took after his name in 1862 which is a partial killing of organisms within a substance (food, liquid) that kills the disease causing organisms. 63C for 30 min & 72C for 15 sec. PASTEURIZATION - 1862 by Pasteur. You do this to milk and foods that you eat.
Pasteur also developed a rabies vaccine by Vaccination with ____________ organisms. This term refers to decrease virulence which is a decreased ability to cause disease. EX: Flu Vaccine Vaccination with ATTENUATED organisms. Pass it multiple times outside host, decrease ability to cause disease. Once you put it back into the host, the host amounts an immune response and it kills the organism.
(True or False): Louis Pasteur showed that the presence of air did not necessarily allow the growth of organisms. True! Previously in history, people have said that the presence of air would allow the presence of organisms like in Spontaneous Generation - which is NOT true!
