Medical Microbiology may overlap with parasitology,generally considered to be the study of diseases caused by multicellular parasites.The classification and identification of organisms are two separate but inter-related processes. Classification involves the identification of groups of organism that share common properties and that differ from other groups. Identification entails the assignation of an unknown organism to a group within a scheme of classification. For more than a century bacteria have been classified according to their "Gram reaction" - named after Christian Gram who devised the protocol for his staining process in 1884.
