When the microbial growth is completed‚ under ideal conditions microbes will aggregate and form a stable structure which can then be removed (Cooke‚ n.d.). When the untreated waste is dumped into a pond or fast-moving river‚ there is less dissolved oxygen and the waste content is

NTRODUCTION Often in the study of microbiology‚ the need to identify an unknown microbe may arise. This aids in the recognition of which microbes are harmful or pathogenic as well as those that may be beneficial to us in some way. This report will detail how a similar project was performed in order to identify two unknown micobes using the techniques that were learnt during the course of the semester. We embarked on the project with the knowledge that we would have to identify a Gram(+) as well
