This textbook, Applied and Environmental Microbiology, provides a comprehensive and integrated introduction to the fundamental principles and practical applications of microbiology. Designed for first-year Master’s students, the book bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world applications across two complementary domains: applied microbiology and environmental microbiology.
The first part focuses on the controlled use of microorganisms in laboratory and industrial settings, covering bacterial growth, culture techniques, microbial control methods, and bioreactor technology. It emphasizes both classical and modern approaches to microbial quantification and manipulation.
The second part explores microorganisms within natural ecosystems, highlighting their diversity, metabolic capabilities, and ecological roles. It examines methods for studying environmental microbes, their involvement in biogeochemical cycles, and their impact on water quality and public health.
By combining mechanistic understanding with applied perspectives, this book equips students with essential skills in microbial cultivation, analysis, and environmental assessment, while fostering awareness of the role of microbiology in sustainable development and environmental protection.
