==Cancelling Research==
The option to cancel the research appears if you press and hold click on an active the button with three vertical dots next to the research actiontimer.
Cancelling Canceling a research action will cause all the progress to go to waste and return the [[Scientists]] to the player.

Mutation requires two '''Main page:''' [[Bacteria of equal level and always gives one Bacteria of a higher level as a reward. The rarity of the mutated Bacteria is the same as the rarity of the used Bacteria. If they are of different rarities, the mutated Bacteria will have a random rarity in the same range, so it is not possible to obtain a higher rarity Bacteria through mutation.Engineering]]
Mutation is instantaneous and it requires no Scientists. However, after it is complete, the player has to clean the lab before it can be again used for mutations. Cleaning takes 2 hours and requires 2 [[File:Scientist.png|20px|link=http://wiki.bacterialtakeover.com/index.php?title=Resources#Scientists]]Bacteria Mutations=={{mutation description}}
The default mutation cap is Level 3, which can be raised to Level 4 with '''[[the Ultimate Life Form]]''' tech at the See also:'''[[Dark Matter InstituteEvolved Bacteria]]'''.

::::::::::::When calculating the mutation results, the [[Evolved_Bacteria#Effect|'''effects''']] of Bacteria A and Bacteria B play an important role. Mutating Bacteria with similar effects gives a better chance to obtain a good result. Mutation results are calculated by taking the average values of Bacteria A and Bacteria B, so Bacteria with better effects usually give better results. Even though higher level Bacteria generally have better effect, it is possible to mutate a Bacteria with weaker bonuses, especially if A and B are of different '''rarities'''. In most cases, Bacteria C will have the effects as either Bacteria A or Bacteria B. The exception is when C has more stats than A and B individually. The name of C is random and does not depend on Bacteria A and B.{{colony irradiation table}}'''See alsoMain page:''' [[Evolved BacteriaColony Irradiation]] <br><br><br> <br>
