TÉCNICAS MICROBIOLÓGICAS NAPRODUÇÃO DE BIOINSUMOS PARA AGRICULTURA

Abstract

Participation in extracurricular activities during undergraduate studies is essential for academic development. These experiences complement the technical and theoretical training acquired in the classroom, providing practical experiences that enhance learning. This report describes the internship activities carried out at Metabtech, focusing on the area of microbiological analyses, with an emphasis on the practical application of fermentation techniques aimed at the production of bioinputs, bacterial evaluation, and fungal evaluation, with the goal of ensuring the viability and quality of products to be manufactured. During the internship, routines were conducted to monitor microorganisms of interest, using standardized methodologies adapted to the specific needs of production. The bacterial fermentation activities included the preparation of appropriate culture media, strict control of parameters such as temperature, pH, and incubation time, as well as the analysis of microbial growth through viable colony counts and morphological observations. In parallel, fungal evaluations were carried out, including isolation, identification, and viability tests. This work highlights the importance of microbiological control as an essential stage in the development of safe and effective biotechnological processes and emphasizes the role of microbiological analyses in ensuring the quality and stability of biological products intended for the commercial sector.
