Diagnostic microbiology

Diagnostic microbiology is the study of microbial identification. Researchers have been finding ways to extract different species since the invention of disease germ theory. Using methods such as differential media or genome sequencing, physicists and scientists can observe new functions in organisms in order to diagnose organisms more effectively and accurately. Methods used in diagnostic microbiology are often used to take advantage of a particular difference in organisms, often by referring to previous studies, in order to obtain information on which species it may be. New studies provide data that can be cited by other researchers so that scientists can have basic knowledge of the species with which they work.
