v. t. e. Microbiology (from Ancient Greek μῑκρος (mīkros) 'small' βίος (bíos) ' life ' and -λογία (-logía) 'study of') is the scientific study of microorganisms, those being of unicellular (single-celled), multicellular (consisting of complex cells), or acellular (lacking cells). [1][2] Microbiology encompasses numerous sub ...

Gram staining is a bacteriological laboratory technique [7] used to differentiate bacterial species into two large groups (gram-positive and gram-negative) based on the physical properties of their cell walls. [8][page needed] Gram staining can also be used to diagnose a fungal infection. [1]
Diagnostic microbiology is the study of microbial identification. Since the discovery of the germ theory of disease, scientists have been finding ways to harvest specific organisms. Using methods such as differential media or genome sequencing, physicians and scientists can observe novel functions in organisms for more effective and accurate ...
Bacteriological water analysis is a method of analysing water to estimate the numbers of bacteria present and, if needed, to find out what sort of bacteria they are. It represents one aspect of water quality. It is a microbiological analytical procedure which uses samples of water and from these samples determines the concentration of bacteria.
Colonial morphology. In microbiology, colonial morphology refers to the visual appearance of bacterial or fungal colonies on an agar plate. Examining colonial morphology is the first step in the identification of an unknown microbe. The systematic assessment of the colonies' appearance, focusing on aspects like size, shape, colour, opacity, and ...
New Zealand overcame a slow start and produced a more clinical finish than in recent matches to beat Australia 33-13 on Saturday and sweep the two-test Bledisloe Cup series. When winger Caleb ...
In microbiology, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) is the lowest concentration of a chemical, usually a drug, which prevents visible in vitro growth of bacteria or fungi. [1][2] MIC testing is performed in both diagnostic [1][2] and drug discovery laboratories. [3][4] The MIC is determined by preparing a dilution series of the chemical ...
