kingdom of microorganisms was brought into life 3 billion years ago. Since then «the earth is a fundamentally a microbial planet‚ to which the micro-organisms are recent the relatively unimportant additions» (Wheelis‚ Mark‚ Principles of modern microbiology‚ 2008‚ p.1). The term microorganisms consist of bacteria‚ archaea‚ fungi‚ and protest‚ which can either be unicellular or multicellular. They first have been studied by Anton van Leeuwenhoek by the use of his own design microscope‚ in 1675. However

because they provide accurate data. 2. Through this letter I would like to present my opinion regarding Grams staining method and reliability of this method. According to me‚ Grams staining process is a simple technique that assists in recognition of etiological agent and therefore can be called as one of the most significant staining practices in microbiology. Though‚ Gram is concerned that the staining process developed by him is imperfect because not all bacteria can be stained by it

Contributors to Microbiology Pioneers of Microbiology I. Antonie van Leeuwenhoek (Oct. 24‚ 1632- Aug. 30‚ 1723) A. In 1676 Leeuwenhoek saw tiny organisms in water‚ he was the first man to observe and describe bacteria accurately. He discovered microscopic nematodes‚ blood cells and sperm. He also made over 500 microscopes to view specific objects. B. Microbiology is concerned with the study of all forms of life that are too small to be seen with the naked eye. Antonie’s work
