ABSTRACT

Bacteria are meant to be omnipresent and are mostly involved in lots of human microbial infections. Such bacterial infections can be identified by the different properties of this microorganism. Bacteria are bearing several inherent properties. By using these properties we can differentiate, can check there presence and absence, can check their gram negative and gram positive nature and many more. The present review is therefore focused to combine different biochemical test in one article. The identification of unknown bacteria produces benefits for many aspects of the research of microorganisms and helps physicians correctly treat patients. Multiple biochemical tests were performed to provide the fermentation abilities, presence of certain enzymes, and certain biochemical reactions. Qualitative observations were made on the tests, which were compared to unknown bacteria identification key to aid with the identification process. The identification is required so as to cure the illness or the infection caused due to the bacteria by using appropriate antibiotics. Identificationalso holds significance for epidemiological purposes.
