Computers can help scientists learn about bacteria any time there is a need for number crunching which occurs extremely frequently when scientists study bacteria. Flow cytometry, for example, can count the number of bacteria in a sample, using lazers and detectors. The electronic information from the detectors is fed into a computer where it is analyzed and turned into useful information about how many bacteria are present. Without the computer, flow cytometry and many other complex technologies useful for studying bacteria would be impossible.
