How it's all changed. . . . life sciences, that is.

Today university research and learning are mostly at the molecular level, and departmental names say so.

Red-pigmented Serratia marcescens bacteria cultivated on chocolate agar.

Bacteriology is regularly performed on most samples that are received at the lab. A positive test can indicate a systemic infection. Mortality events or diseases may be an indication of an environmental health problem, and the Fish and Wildlife Health Group at FWRI investigates and documents mortality and disease events around the state.

Caine Ln, Tai Ping Shan.

In 1894, the teeming and overcrowded Chinese quarter of Tai Ping Shan created the perfect environment for the rat-borne bubonic plague. Amongst the overcrowded, unsanitary homes with no fresh water, the plague took hold over the rodent population and from there was transferred by fleas to humans. The Bubonic Plague claimed the lives of some 3,500 people in Hong Kong and forced the colonial authorities to belatedly address the issue of crowding, sanitation and disease research.

 

The tireless efforts of Scotsman Dr William Hunter as Bacteriologist to the Government of Hong Kong resulted in the construction of this handsome, Edwardian, red-brick building; it was purpose-built as a medical laboratory on land resumed from part of the cleared area of the site of the plague outbreak at Tai Ping Shan. It was designed by the local firm of architects Messrs Leigh & Orange and it contained four large laboratories, a library, waiting room, offices, photographic studio, incubating room, refrigeration room and a heating chamber. Fireplaces were imported from Britain and the floors were laid with Minton tiles. Nearby buildings housed servants' quarters and a two-storied animal stable (for those hapless animals necessarily used in scientific experiments). It was opened by the recently-arrived Governor Sir Matthew Nathan It was later re-named the Pathological Institute after WWII.

 

Inside, it remains a wonderful time-warp; heavy teak floors and balustraded staircases, period sinks, fireplaces (very rare in HK!) taps and other fixtures and fittings. It is now restored as the Hong Kong Museum of Medical Sciences - well worth a visit for a glimpse of an old Hong Kong.

Prof Mcnally showing students the results of the bacterial they had grown.

Trained in the bacteriological methods of the time (1938), Verder studied gastrointestinal flora and staphylococci and trained NIH staff in bacteriological methods. In 1962, she became chief of the Bacteriology and Mycology Branch of the NIAID Extramural program. She retired in 1970.

A barber (from the Latin barba, "beard") is a person whose occupation is mainly to cut, dress, groom, style and shave men's and boys' hair. A barber's place of work is known as a "barber shop" or a "barber's". Barber shops are also places of social interaction and public discourse. In some instances, barbershops are also public forums. They are the locations of open debates, voicing public concerns, and engaging citizens in discussions about contemporary issues. They were also influential in helping shape male identity.

 

In previous times, barbers (known as barber surgeons) also performed surgery and dentistry. With the development of safety razors and the decreasing prevalence of beards, in English-speaking cultures, most barbers now specialize in cutting men's scalp hair as opposed to facial hair.

 

TERMINOLOGY

In modern times, the term "barber" is used both as a professional title and to refer to hairdressers who specialize in men's hair. Historically, all hairdressers were considered barbers. In the 20th century, the profession of cosmetology branched off from barbering, and today hairdressers may be licensed as either barbers or cosmetologists. Barbers differ with respect to where they work, which services they are licensed to provide, and what name they use to refer to themselves. Part of this terminology difference depends on the regulations in a given location.

 

Different states in the US vary on their labor and licensing laws. For example, in Maryland, a cosmetologist cannot use a straight razor, strictly reserved for barbers. In contrast, in New Jersey both are regulated by the State Board of Cosmetology and there is no longer a legal difference in barbers and cosmetologists, as they are issued the same license and can practice both the art of straight razor shaving, colouring, other chemical work and haircutting if they choose.

 

In Australia, the official term for a barber is hairdresser; barber is only a popular title for men's hairdressers, although not as popular now as it was in the middle of the 20th century. Most would work in a hairdressing salon.

 

HISTORY

The barber's trade has a long history: razors have been found among relics of the Bronze Age (around 3500 BC) in Egypt. In ancient Egyptian culture, barbers were highly respected individuals. Priests and men of medicine are the earliest recorded examples of barbers. In some early tribes, a barber was one of the most important members, as it was believed that certain evil spirits could enter a person's body through their hair, and that cutting it was a way to drive them out. Due to their spiritual and religious beliefs, barbers even performed religious ceremonies, such as marriages and baptizing children. During these ceremonies, they would leave people's hair hanging down until after dancing; they would then cut the hair and tie it back tightly so that no evil spirits could enter and no good spirits could escape.

 

Men in Ancient Greece would have their beards, hair, and fingernails trimmed and styled by the κουρεύς (cureus), in an agora (market place) which also served as a social gathering for debates and gossip.

 

Barbering was introduced to Rome by the Greek colonies in Sicily in 296 BC, and barber shops quickly became very popular centres for daily news and gossip. A morning visit to the tonsor became a part of the daily routine, as important as the visit to the public baths, and a young man's first shave (tonsura) was considered an essential part of his coming of age ceremony.

 

A few Roman tonsores became wealthy and influential, running shops that were favourite public locations of high society; however, most were simple tradesmen, who owned small storefronts or worked in the streets for low prices.Starting from the Middle Ages, barbers often served as surgeons and dentists. In addition to haircutting, hairdressing, and shaving, barbers performed surgery, bloodletting and leeching, fire cupping, enemas, and the extraction of teeth; earning them the name "barber surgeons". The barber pole, featuring red and white spiraling stripes, symbolized different aspects of the craft. Barbers received higher pay than surgeons until surgeons were entered into British warships during naval wars. Some of the duties of the barber included neck manipulation, cleansing of ears and scalp, draining of boils, fistula and lancing of cysts with wicks.

 

19th CENTURY AND LATER

Barbershops were influential at the turn of the 19th century in helping to develop African American culture and economy. According to Trudier Harris, "In addition to its status as a gathering place, the black barbershop also functioned as a complicated and often contradictory microcosm of the larger world. It is an environment that can bolster egos and be supportive as well as a place where phony men can be destroyed, or at least highly shamed, from participation in verbal contests and other contests of skill. It is a retreat, a haven, an escape from nagging wives and the cares of the world. It is a place where men can be men. It is a place, in contrast to Gordone's bar, to be somebody."Late in the 19th century there were several noteworthy events in the barber profession that gave it an upward trend, and the effects are still carrying onward and upward. In 1893, A. B. Moler of Chicago, established a school for barbers. This was the first institution of its kind in the world, and its success was apparent from its very start. It stood for higher education in the ranks, and the parent school was rapidly followed by branches in nearly every principal city of the United States. In the beginning of barber schools, only the practical work of shaving, hair-cutting, facial treatments, etc., was taught as neither the public nor the profession were ready to accept scientific treatments of hair, skin and scalp. Not until about 1920 was much effort made to professionalize the work.

 

In the early 1900s an alternative word for barber, "chirotonsor", came into use in the USA.

 

The barber Sam Mature, whose interview with Studs Terkel was published in Terkel's 1974 book Working, says "A man used to get a haircut every couple weeks. Now he waits a month or two, some of 'em even longer than that. A lot of people would get manicured and fixed up every week. Most of these people retired, moved away, or passed away. It's all on account of long hair. You take old-timers, they wanted to look neat, to be presentable. Now people don't seem to care too much."

 

Despite the economic recession in 2008, the barber shop industry has seen continued positive growth.

Training to be a barber is achieved through various means around the world. In the USA, barber training is carried out at "Barber Schools".

 

Cost—Many states require a barber license in order to practice barbering professionally. The cost of barber school varies from state to state, and also from metro area to metro area. Schools in larger metropolitan areas tend to cost more than those located in more rural towns. Brand names can also affect the cost of barber school. Most barber schools cost between $6,500 and $10,000 to complete. Because each state has different minimums for training hours, the length and cost of the program can vary accordingly. Some schools tuition includes supplies and textbooks, whereas others do not. Barber license exam fees typically range from $50 to $150.

 

Length—Most states require the same amount of training hours for barbers as they do for cosmetologists. The number of hours required ranges from 800 to 2,000 training hours, depending on the state's licensing requirements. Most programs can be completed in 15 months or fewer.

 

Curriculum—The barber school curriculum consists of hair cutting, coloring and styling for men's hair and women's short hair. Chemical processes such as bleaching, dyeing, lightening and relaxing hair may also be taught. All cosmetology disciplines learn safety and sanitation best practices. Barber students can expect to learn some elements of anatomy, physiology, bacteriology and some small elements of pharmacology. It also teaches facial hair techniques, including traditional and modern shaves. Generally barber programs touch on scalp massage and treatments. Advanced barber training may include custom shave designs. It is more common in barbering schools than other cosmetology disciplines to get some business and ethics education, since entrepreneurship is especially common in the barbering trade with many professionals choosing to open their own barbershops. All the skills learned in barber school will be tested at the board exams, which typically feature a written and practical exam.

Atlas and essentials of bacteriology

New York :William Wood & Co.,1897

biodiversitylibrary.org/page/18170127

i suppose i should explain.

 

last summer, my boyfriend and i raised two ducks that i got from my genetics, bacteriology, and embryology class in high school. their names were oscar & donald :) donald didn't make it through the summer, but oscar ended up joining the group of ducks that lived on brendan's lake.

 

i was so unbelievably nervous when they left for the winter. all i could do was hope that oscar would make it back safely, and hope that he would come back to the same place!

 

today, brendan and i went to his house because his mom told us she thought she saw oscar on the lake. when we went down to the water and started whistling and calling his name, he ran right out of the bushes on the beach and started swimming (while quacking just like he used to) right toward us :D i started crying, which is incredibly dorky, but i was so happy!!

 

i took plenty of other, better pictures today, but when i look back at these pictures after the year is over, will i be happier to see a picture of my baby, or one of some random trees? i hope you know the answer :)

 

here is a close-up of the two of them that i took last year - oscar&holly

Member of the personnel from the USN Hospital at Creevagh, looking into a microscope in the Bacteriology Department.

 

The Microscope in use here was made by the Spencer Lens Company. Founded in 1895 in Buffalo, New York, the company manufactured high-quality microscopes and is considered the first American microscope manufacturer. In 1935 American Optical purchased the Spencer Lens Company but continued operation under its own name, after the acquisition, until 1945 when it became known as the Instrument Division of American Optical Company. The microscopes used by the USN were marked with both the Spencer Buffalo logo and US Navy along their base.

Laboratory of Chemical and bacteriological reconnaissance produced in 1918. This loud name hides a modest louse-slaughter - but it played a huge role in preserving the combat readiness of the Red Army during the Civil War 1918-1922.

Then the typhus epidemic produced a huge devastation and typhus louse has killed three times more people than the enemy's bullets and shells

 

Лаборатория химической и бактериологической разведки, изготовленная в 1918 г. За этим громким названием скрывается обыкновенная вошебойка. Но во время Гражданской войны 1918-1922 гг. она играла огромную роль в сохранении боеспособности Красной Армии.

Тогда эпидемия тифа производила огромное опустошение и тифозная вошь убила в три раза больше людей чем вражеские пули и снаряды
