Microbiological Tests - Anaerobic Bacteria Count

An aerobic organism can survive in an oxygen-rich environment while an anaerobic organism does not need oxygen for growth and development. If there is oxygen in the environment, it reacts negatively and may even die. Anaerobic organisms can be unicellular (eg protozoans, bacteria) or multicellular. Many types of fungi are aerobic organisms that need oxygen to survive. However, oxygen It disrupts the metabolism of anaerobic organisms and kills them. The deep waters of the ocean are a common anaerobic environment.

Food that has not been properly processed and then stored at room temperature may be at risk for anaerobic bacteria.

Infections caused by anaerobic bacteria are common and can be serious and life-threatening. These bacteria are common in nature and in the normal human flora.

Briefly, anaerobic bacteria are bacterial species that cannot survive or reproduce in environments with oxygen. Some of them are obligate anaerobes: the presence of oxygen is harmful or fatal to the microorganism. In some, oxygen is not necessary for the metabolically active microorganism, but if it is present, it can tolerate oxygen and show poor growth.

In the test, analysis, measurement and evaluation studies carried out in our organization, national and international standards and applicable legal regulations are complied with and reliable and impartial results are obtained. These studies are based on the latest technological equipment, trained and experienced staff and modern methods. Among the numerous tests performed in this context, there are also microbiological tests - anaerobic bacteria counting services.
