Methods & Techniques of
cultivation
His discovery that most
infectious diseases are caused
by germs, known as the "germ
theory of disease," is one of the
most important in medical
history.

Koch’s postulates
The organism must be present in every case of the
infectious disease.
It should be possible to isolate the organism in
pure culture from the lesion.
Inoculation of the pure culture into suitable lab
animal should produce a similar disease.
It should be possible to re-isolate the organism in
pure form from the lesions produced in the
experimental animal.
Specific antibodies to the organism should be
demonstrable in patients suffering from the
disease.

Nomenclature

Scientific name (Systematic Name)
Binomial System of Nomenclature
– Genus name + species name
 Italicized
or underlined
 Genus name is capitalized and may be
abbreviated
 Species name is never abbreviated
 A genus name may be used alone to indicate a
genus group; a species name is never used
alone
 eg: Bacillus subtilis
B. subtilis
Nomenclature

Common or descriptive names
(trivial names)
– Names for organisms that may be in
common usage, but are not taxonomic
names
 eg:
tubercle bacillus
(Mycobacterium tuberculosis)
 meningococcus
(Neiserria meningitidis)
 Group A streptococcus
(Streptococcus pyogenes)
Nomenclature
For viruses - common names are used
e. g. Polio virus, HIV, Influenza virus
 For parasites – Either binomial or
common names are used e.g.

– Round worm, Ascaris lumbricoides, A.
lumbricoides
– Dog tape worm, Echinococcus
granulosus, E. granulosus
