Microbiology Handbook

The Handbook of Microbiology learn microscopic organisms, viruses, bacteria, algae, fungi, slime molds, and protozoa. The methods used to study and manipulate these minute and mostly unicellular organisms differ from those used in most other biological investigations.

Microbiology is an applied science that uses microorganisms (microbes) as a tool for improving the quality of human life. At first the use of microbes was only limited to the food industry. Along with the development of science, microbes was then begun to be used for other human activities, such as waste management, development of science in the field of genetic engineering, and others.
