Poslední úprava: Chanová Marta, Mgr., Ph.D. (12.01.2026)
Lectures and 2 one-week practical blocks (the 2nd and the 4th week of the semester), with a special focus on microbiology of oral cavity and diagnostic and desinfection techniques. Lectures and seminars: Inst. of Microbiol.Studničkova 7
Practical course:
Two blocks, each of one week, will introduce the basic procedures of work in a microbiology laboratory, methods of sampling the clinical material, strategies for identifying bacteria and other microbial agents, and strategies for antimicrobial therapy. Students will learn the principles of microbiological examination and the basics of interpreting its results, methods of disinfection and sterilization and how to control them, and will familiarize with techniques for working with infectious material while adhering to the principles of occupational safety.
For details on organization of practical course see the document entitled "Practical course - organizational instructions 2026".

CREDIT REQUIREMENTS
1. Lectures
Attendance is not compulsory
Students who actively participate in the lectures are exempt from the credit test requirement.To qualify for this exemption, you need to:
Attend at least 4 out of 6 lecturesbetweenFebruary 23 and April 10(i.e., no more thantwo absences).
Attend at least 4 out of 6 lecturesbetweenApril 13 and June 5 (i.e., no more thantwo absences).
Attendance at lectures is recordedONLY via the university student card/ISIC card readerin the lecture hall. Pleaseregister your attendance at the beginning and upon leaving. Paper lists or requests sent by email WILL NOT be taken into consideration. Make sure the reader does not flash red when scanning your card – this indicates that your attendance might not have been recorded correctly (this is rare, but if it happens, please inform the lecturer immediately).
Valid only for 2025/26 - since 3 lectures will be cancelled due to state holidays on April 3, May 1 and May 8, we will extend timing of two lectures (April 17 and May 15) from regular 11:00-13:15 to 10:00-13:00 to squeze the most important missing topics in. Thanks for understanding!
2. Successfull completion of practical courses (2 weeks)
Attendance
No late arrivals: Exceptional delays of up to 30 minutes may be tolerated.
No absences:
Absence on the first day of the block (Monday) results in exclusion from further participation.
For serious and documented reasons, the teacher may excuse an absence on one of the following teaching days (Tuesday - Friday); this must be discussed with the teacher in advance. Excuses for absence are conditional upon verification that the student has supplemented the knowledge from the missed day. Under no circumstances is this an "universal option to miss one day of practical course".
Active participation: The student is familiar with the topics covered, understands the workflow, is able to follow up on them in subsequent tasks, and can describe and explain the findings during group discussions.
Laboratory protocols:Recording of the work progress and results in prepared forms that will be checked by a teacher during the course. These will also be useful in the Microbiology 2 practical course, where the acquired knowledge is essential.
Homework:Self-study for assigned topics.
Assessment of successful completion of practical course lies fully within the competence of the teacher. In the event of unexcused absence or failure to meet other requirements, the student should repeat the practical course in assigned alternative block. Absence from the alternative block will be considered as failure to complete the practical course.
3. Credit test
This test will be held online via MS Teams and will consist of 30 multiple-choice questions (with only one correct “single best” answer).
You need at least 18 points out of 30 to pass. The test questions will cover only the material presented in the lectures.
Credits will be awarded by the practical labs’ supervisors in the credit week after passing all the above-listed tests and duties.
