Microbiology is the scientific study of microscopic organisms present in our environment and inside our bodies. While some microorganisms play an essential role in maintaining bodily functions, others can cause infections and diseases. By identifying harmful microorganisms, microbiology tests help doctors determine the best treatment, prevent the spread of infections, and monitor recovery.
