INTRODUCTION Growing up we all remember how much our mothers emphasized and encouraged us to drink milk. The reason was simple, milk is a highly nutritious drink. It contains carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids. Bacteria, which is a prokaryotic cell, is found any nutritious place. Since milk is highly nutritious, it makes an ideal home for bacteria. Milk goes through pasteurization. This process reduces the number of bacteria and increases milks shelf life. It reduces the bacteria, but

He worked on crystallography that led to the notion of molecules being three-dimensional object. He discovered the world of microbe, and he was the first one to demonstrate their ubiquity and their role in many natural processes. Examples are fermentation and putrefaction. He also proved the role of microbes and infectious diseases; this led to the rationalization of hygiene

Biochemical tests are often used to determine the identity of bacteria and differentiate between its species. There are numerous types of tests meant to detect key characteristics such as morphology, stain, motility, fermentation pathways used, oxygen requirements, enzymes present, and redox tests used. By conducting these tests with aseptic techniques, one can usually narrow down an unknown bacterium to its family; with the help of dichotomous keys and Bergey’s Manual of Determinative Bacteriology
