26‚ decided he was tired of studying crystallography and tried a different field: bacteria (Manning 193). Studying bacteria was far more successful than studying crystallography. He had discovered three new types of bacteria: staphylococcus‚ streptococcus‚ and pneumococcus (Dakes 165). He also discovered chicken cholera‚ proved microbes reproduce‚ and proved that microorganisms are caused by living things and germs‚ and that microorganisms are killed at 122 degrees Fahrenheit (Jones 38).

The cell is the basic functioning unit of organisms in which chemical reactions take place. These reactions involve an energy release needed to support life and build structures. The cell consists of membrane bound organelles‚ which are responsible for the division of labour. There are two main classes of cells- Prokaryotes which are cells without a nucleus‚ where the DNA is spread around the cytoplasm of the cell‚ an example of a prokaryote is a bacterium (See Figure 1). The other class is the Eukaryotes

Coccus is a term used to describe a type of morphology that helps us distinguish different kinds of bacteria. The cell’s morphology is only one of the many ways we can differentiate the different species. Looking at these bacterium underneath the microscope is an important step to determine which kind of species it is. All cocci bacteria are not gram positive‚ but this lab will examine only this kind because of their influence in human health. Staphylococcus Aureus is a gram-positive coccus bacterium

Milk is a nutritionally rich food that also proves beneficial to health. Nowadays‚ it is often to find diversified milk products with various flavors and forms and a longer shelf life. One such product is cheese‚ which is universally understood as a coagulated milk protein formed due to enzyme activity and whey separation (Robinson and Wilbey‚ 2008). There are multiple cheese categories in the world‚ commonly classified according to their water content. The focus of this study is Parmesan cheese
