Pasteur
Pasteurization & microbial control
Adjust time and temperature to balance pathogen kill with flavor and nutrient preservation.
Microbiology Discoveries Studio
An interactive hub for exploring key microbiology breakthroughs
Built for microbiology learners to move beyond memorization, this studio lets you step into the landmark experiments and reasoning of Pasteur, Koch, and Fleming through simple, exploratory simulations.
Designed for undergraduate microbiology courses
Focused on scientist contributions and core lab ideas
Click any card to open its simulation in a clean, focused view.
Louis Pasteur • Experiments that shaped germ theory
Pasteur
Fermentation & living yeast
See how yeast convert sugar to CO₂ and ethanol, proving fermentation is a biological process.
Pasteur
Rabies vaccine strategy
Follow attenuation and post-exposure vaccination as a logic chain, not just a story.
Pasteur
Microscopic observation lab
Practice magnification and focus while bringing rods and cocci into view.
Robert Koch • Connecting specific microbes to specific diseases
Koch
Koch's postulates
Step through the four criteria linking a microbe to a disease using simple visuals.
Koch
Staining techniques
Explore how stains increase contrast to reveal pathogens among host cells.
Koch
Pure culture on agar
See isolated colonies emerge and why they are essential for proof of causation.
Koch
Broth bacterial growth
Link turbidity changes to classic growth phases in liquid culture.
Koch
Tuberculosis identification
Use acid-fast staining steps to highlight Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Alexander Fleming & Antibiotics • Discovery, testing, resistance, production
Fleming
Penicillin discovery plate
Observe a mold colony clearing nearby bacteria and recognize zones of inhibition.
Fleming
Zone of inhibition measurement
Drop antibiotic disks and compare halo sizes to build intuition for disk diffusion tests.
Fleming
Antibiotic resistance evolution
Run generations under antibiotic pressure and watch resistant cells dominate.
Fleming
Industrial antibiotic production
Follow antibiotic manufacturing from fermenters through purification to final vials.
