Description: Article by Matt Emery provides an introduction to these microbes with several images of stained cultures.
by Matt Emery (UK), an A level sciences student, and amateur microbiologist Essentially, there are 3 general types of bacteria, each being specialised to different environments and having specific advantages in various organisms in relation to other forms. They exist all around us, in the air we breathe, on the surfaces we touch, on our skin, and within us. Many bacteria, contrary to popular misconception do not actually do any harm to mankind, and in fact, can be helpful to us, such as the bacteria responsible for turning milk to yoghurt, breaking down detritus into soil, and those which live symbiotically in our gut.
