Abstract

It is imperative to say that we are immersed in a sea of microorganisms due to their ubiquitous presence on the planet, from soil to water and air. Human bodies harbor a vast array of microorganisms from both the inside and out called the human microbiome. It is composed of single-celled organisms, including archaea, fungi, viruses, and bacteria, including bacteriophages, where bacteria are the biggest players, and this is collectively referred to as the human microbiome. These organisms have a symbiotic relationship with humans and impact human physiology where they colonize various sites on and in the human body, adapting to specific features of each niche. However, dysbiosis, or the deviation from normal microbial composition, is associated with adverse health effects, disrupted ecosystems, and eco-imbalance in nature. In this review, we delve into the comprehensive oversight of bacteria, their cosmopolitan presence, and their additional applications affecting human lives.
