The students who have succeeded in this course; When the student successfully completes this course they will; 1. Distinguish the terminology, microscope types, staining and culture methods used in microbiology. 2. Define the classification, morphology and pathogens of bacterial genera. 3. Explain the general characteristics, reproduction conditions, contents and localization in the body of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria associated with infections, as well as spirochetes and anaerobes. 4. Define the human microbiome and its importance for the host, especially the place of oral microbiota in dentistry applications. 5. Define virulence factors in the interaction of host response and pathogen in relation to the stages of infectious diseases. 6. Describe in detail the antibiotic groups, spectrum of action and the principles of use in infectious diseases, basic resistance mechanisms and important resistance phenotypes that limit treatment. 7. Define the classification, morphology and pathogens of viral agents. 8. List viruses associated with infections that share the same signs and symptoms. 9.
