Objectives
The theory forms the background for the more specialists branches of the microbiology that is lectured in the 2 and 3 year. In the first year 3 micro-organisms are treated : the bacteria, the fungi and the viruses. The morfology, structure and proliferation of bacteria and fungi becomes micro-scopicly investigated in the lab parallel with the theory.
The students learn to make microscopic slides, to colour and investigate them, to prepare media.
Following attitudes are developed : accuracy, safety and environment-minded, independence, accuracy, order, ..
