The microbe is R. eutropha and it has been genetically modified to produce biofuel. However, there is a long way to go before it is produced in large quantizes. And even then vehicles will also have to be changed. There is hope that the same microbe will be able to use carbon dioxide.

Why is biochemical testing important?

A biochemical test is a test used mainly in microbiology with the main intention of detecting enzyme production. Biochemical tests can also, when used correctly, further narrow the search when looking at identifying an unknown microbe. The biochemical tests can narrow the search down to a specific genus and possibly even the species of the unknown microbe. In most cases when identification of an unknown microbe is needed, the microbe will usually be a bacterium.

How is a pickle a microorganism?

Microbes make the pickling process possible. The microbe used is an anaerobe called Lactobacillus plantarum. The pickling process is a way of preserving food just as canning or freezing. But the pickle itself is not a microbe. A microbe requires a microscope to see.
