Having the ability to collect and identify unknown microorganisms is vital in health and medicine. This capability is important for a variety of reasons‚ such as knowing the causative agent of disease‚ knowing if the microorganism obtains any beneficial properties and knowing the correct microorganism to use to create a successful antibiotic. Implementing the experimental methods learned thus far in the microbiology laboratory allowed an unknown bacterium to be identified as a result of this study

ACTIVATED SLUDGE DIAGRAM DEFINITION: Activated sludge is a term that refers to suspended aerobic consisting of flocs of active bacteria‚ which are mixed with wastewater. The bacteria consume and remove aerobically biodegradable organic substances from screened; or screened and presettled wastewater in an aerated tank. The organic pollutants in the wastewater are used by the bacteria to grow and transform it to energy‚ water‚ CO2 and new cell material. Activated sludge systems are suspended-growth

To Gram stain the given bacterial suspension and to differentiate between gram positive and gram negative organism. Visualization of microorganisms in the living state is very difficult‚ not just because they are minute‚ but because they are transparent and almost colorless when suspended in an aqueous medium. To study their properties and divide microorganisms into specific groups for diagnostic purposes‚ biological stains and staining procedures‚ in conjunction with light microscopy‚ have become
