BACTERIOLOGY.
Professor Tuttle.
Bacteriology is taught by lectures and practical work in the laboratory.
It is the object of the course to give to students a clear idea of the biology of
the bacteria; their affinities as plants, their structure, and their physiology being
considered as a 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.
