mikrobiologischer

Mikrobiologischer is an inflected form of the German adjective mikrobiologisch and means “microbiological.” It is used to describe things that pertain to microbiology, the science that studies microscopic organisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa. The term appears across clinical, laboratory, environmental, and industrial contexts, including lab reports, research articles, and regulatory documents.

The word comes from Mikrobiologie, the German term for microbiology, itself derived from Greek roots meaning small life and the study of. As an adjective, mikrobiologisch is declined according to gender, number, and case. The masculine nominative singular form is mikrobiologischer (as in mikrobiologischer Befund), the feminine is mikrobiologische, the neuter is mikrobiologisches, and the plural form used with plural nouns is mikrobiologische (for example, mikrobiologische Befunde).

Common usages include compounds and phrases such as mikrobiologischer Nachweis (microbiological detection), mikrobiologische Untersuchung (microbiological examination), mikrobiologische Belastung (microbiological contamination/load), and mikrobiologische Sicherheit (microbiological safety). In practice, the term helps distinguish microbiology-related aspects from other scientific or technical domains.
