How the scientists are catching microorganisms?
Hey mate here's your answer ...
You can find micro-organisms everywhere...But can you see them? And can you catch them?
Bacteria and viruses are the most common, but typically require special dyes and very powerful microscopes in order to see. And they aren't the most interesting to look at either, you can only see their overall shape (rod, sphere, or spiral shaped) or organization (singular, groups, or chained).
The most interesting kinds of micro-organisms to look at, in my opinion, are bigger eukaryotic or multi-cellular ones. I like them because they can have very unique features and they're see thru, so you can see their internal organs working! And although these guys are a bit more rare, you can easily find them in sources of water like a river or the ocean.
However, if you were to just take any old drop of water, unless it's pretty scummy, you'll only be looking at empty water. This is why we're using a net to catch them!
With this net you can take a quart of water (18,920 drops) or more, and use a filter to get rid of all the water while keeping everything bigger than a micron in there. This lets you see everything all at once, making it a lot easier to find amazing microorganisms! Don't worry it's Super-simple!
