BACTERIOLOGY.
Professor Tuttle.
Bacteriology is taught by lectures and practical work in the laboratory.
It is the object of the course to give the students a clear idea of the biology
of the bacteria; their affinities as plants, their structure, and their physiology
being considered as the basis for the further discussion of their economic relations,
their action as causes of disease, and the methods resorted to for
their manipulation. The various processes of bacteriological technique are
fully illustrated and demonstrated in the laboratory. The work of the students
comprises special practice in those processes which are of peculiar value
to the practitioner as a means of diagnosis.
