Microbiology is a science with a particular history that has given tools for the prevention of diseases, improvement of food production and other aspects of the industry; that evolves with technological development, opening new options for solving current problems. This science is derived from biology and […]...

It is a process through which energy is produced under anaerobic conditions, that is, in the absence of oxygen. In addition to obtaining energy, microorganisms produce organic molecules, some of which have been used to produce food and beverages since the beginning of human civilization. It is an alternative to aerobic respiration, although less […]...

In general, prokaryotic cells and the corresponding organisms in which it occurs, comprise the simplest biological forms that They have existed on our planet since the beginning of life, and are capable of living in practically all environments on Earth, even the most hostile. According to the works […]...
