PH5217 – General Microbiology

General Microbiology covers the structure, classification, and function of microorganisms including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. Students explore microbial growth, infection control, sterilization methods, and the role of microbes in disease transmission. Special focus is placed on the immune response and the public health implications of infectious diseases.

Laboratory sessions reinforce theoretical knowledge through practical techniques such as microbial staining, culturing, and identification, preparing students for further studies in clinical and environmental microbiology.
