Mikrobioloogilist

Mikrobioloogilist is the partitive singular form of the Estonian adjective mikrobioloogiline, meaning microbiological. The root relates to mikrobioloogia, the science of microorganisms. Mikrobioloogiline describes phenomena, properties, or objects connected with microbiology. In Estonian, adjectives decline for case and number, so mikrobioloogiline becomes mikrobioloogilist in the partitive singular when it modifies a noun in that case.

Examples of usage include 'mikrobioloogiline uuring' (a microbiological study) and 'mikrobioloogilist mõju' (microbiological impact). Other inflected forms include mikrobioloogilise (genitive singular) and the adverbial form mikrobioloogiliselt (microbiologically). The form mikrobioloogilist appears most often when the corresponding noun is in the partitive case, as in 'tehtud mikrobioloogilist mõju' or similar constructions.

In practice, mikrobioloogilist functions as a technical descriptor in science, medicine, and related fields. It is used to characterize processes, analyses, risks, and results that pertain to microbiology. For example, phrases like mikrobioloogiline risk or mikrobioloogiline analüüs indicate that the risk assessment or analysis relates to microorganisms.

Relation to the base noun: the corresponding noun is mikrobioloogia (microbiology); the adjective mikrobioloogiline is used to describe microbiology-related aspects of objects or statements. The term also appears in formal reports, scientific articles, and regulatory texts where precise, microbiology-related description is required.
