The discovery of over 30 new species of bacteria that are thriving in between the human teeth and gums could not be cultured in the lab. These species cannot be able to view under any kind of microscopes. How the researchers could understand or conclude that they had discovered new species.

Introduction:

Microscope is an instrument used to view the magnified image of an object. It is used in analyzing the morphological features of the microbes.

The bacteria can be grown in a laboratory by using the proper medium in order to distinguish them based on the chemical reaction towards the environment.
