It turns out that not all microbes are bad! In the environment around us there are many microbes that have many benefits! So of course learning by going directly into the field and taking samples of microbes in the soil and observing them directly in the field, not just reading the material, can make us understand more about learning microbial ecology! This is called Winograsky, what is Winograsky? Who is the originator of this Winograsky column?! And what are the benefits of learning Winograsky in studying microbial ecology?
What is winograsky?
Winograski is a technique or method for cultivating microbes that come from the environment. Learning carried out using the Winograsky technique is very helpful in increasing students’ understanding of ecosystem ecology material.
Pencetus winograsky
The Winograski column was coined by a microbiologist named Sergey Winograsky (1856-1953) and Martinus W. Beijerinck (1851-1931). The Winograsky method was used to observe the growth of bacteria.
Microbial Ecology
Microbial ecology studies events that occur between bacteria and the environment and what processes occur in the environment that are related to microbes. For example, rubbish is decomposed by decomposer bacteria, and after it rains, have you ever smelled something like the aroma of soil! Well, that also comes from bacteria. This environment and aroma only exists in tropical places.
Benefits of learning with the Winograsky column technique
Learning microbial ecology with the Winograski technique, students can go directly into the observation environment and observe directly and by jumping in and carrying out experiments directly the memory will continue to be stored and help in understanding the learning (Syahroni.2020), regarding this microbial ecology material because if something impresses someone Certainly the memory will continue to be stored. For example, by taking a sample of soil bacteria in an environment and mixing it with several ingredients such as egg whites and water, then mixing it and placing it in a bottle. And to differentiate between each bottle that has been given a mixture of soil and other ingredients, it is given a variable. free or additional materials, for example the first bottle of Winograsky was given additional paper as a carbon source, then the second bottle was given additional material of eggshell as a source of calcium carbonate. After that students can observe what happened to the Winograsky by storing it for some time, and With this, students can explore further knowledge regarding the color changes in the Winograsky column and how the color change process in the Winograsky can occur. As well as the excitement of students and directly observing the events that occurred at Winograsky
Benefits of Microbes for the environment
Microbes, for example bacteria, have many benefits for the environment, namely they can reduce pollutants (Badriyah & Shovitri. 2015) in the environment, and did you know that rubbish and animal carcasses or whatever are broken down by your decomposer bacteria! No one can do this except decomposer bacteria, so you know how important bacteria are in keeping the environment good, so now you know that not all bacteria are bad.
