Bacteriology is the branch and specialty of biology that studies the morphology, ecology, genetics and biochemistry of bacteria as well as many other aspects related to them. This subdivision of microbiology involves the identification, classification, and characterization of bacterial species. [ 1 ]

Bacteria are single-celled microorganisms that lack a nuclear membrane, are metabolically active and divide by binary fission. Medically they are a major cause of disease. Superficially, bacteria appear to be relatively simple forms of life; in fact, they are sophisticated and highly adaptable.

bacteriology, branch of microbiology dealing with the study of bacteria. The beginnings of bacteriology paralleled the development of the microscope.

Bacteriology is a branch of microbiology that is concerned with the study of bacteria (as well as Archaea) and related aspects.

2024年4月27日 · Bacteria are diverse and ubiquitous, inhabiting virtually every environment on Earth, including soil, water, air, and living organisms. Bacteriology encompasses various aspects of bacterial biology, including their morphology, physiology, genetics, ecology, and interactions with other organisms.

2023年6月20日 · Bacteria are prokaryotic single-celled microorganisms that are metabolically active and divide by binary fission. Some of these organisms play a significant role in the pathogenesis of diseases.

In bacteriology, traditional culture and biochemical techniques is actually quite good at identification of most bacteria. The main utility of molecular techniques in bacteriology is for organisms that are hard to culture.
