[[Category:Resources]]
Resources in Bacterial Takeover include unique collectibles like '''[[Minerals]]''' or '''[[Evolved Bacteria]]''' and basic currency like [[Resources#Bacteria|'''Bacteria''']] and [[Resources#Gene Strands|'''Gene Strands''']].
Most resources are lost when attacking [[Planets|'''planets''']] or upon entering a '''[[Black Hole]]''', but some — for example '''[[Diamonds]]''' and [[Resources#Dark Matter|'''Dark Matter''']] — are never lost unless they are actually used to purchase or research something.
Keep in mind, this page is just a summary. Each of the resources has its own specific page with more detailed information.

=Bacteria=

=Gene Strands=
A player can only equip up to 3 evolved bacteria Evolved Bacteria at one time, but there are is no limitations as limit to how many evolved bacteria Evolved Bacteria can be owned.
The evolved bacteria that Evolved Bacteria which are equipped provide powerful bonuses to production, such as increased critical strike chance BPC and multiplier, reduced research time, and other positive effects.
When entering the player enters a '''[[Black Hole]]''', many of their evolved bacteria will randomly die. By default, each there is a default 90% possibility that a evolved bacteria will probability for each Evolved Bacteria to die. Before entering, the player can secure two bacteria that Evolved Bacteria which will definitely survive. When the player destroys the fifth planet after the first Black Hole, [[Research#Bacteria Irradiation|'''Bacteria Irradiation''']] is unlocked. It is accessible from the Research Lab and can increase the black hole survivability of an Evolved Bacteria.
=Scientists=
{{Main page|title = Scientists are required to produce resources, evolve bacteria, irradiate evolved bacteria and bacteria colonies, and to clean the lab after bacteria mutation.After researching the Quantum Leap technology at the Dark Matter Institute, each idle scientist also doubles the player's [[Mechanics#BPS|BPS]].text align = left}}
=Diamonds=

Diamonds are a premium resource that can be used to purchase:
*a permanent BPS bonusbonuses*a permanent BPC bonusbonuses*an extra scientistScientists
*bacteria equal to 6 hours of BPS
Diamonds can also be used to instantly complete research or reveal the results of bacteria Bacteria mutation. Most bonuses that provide incremental boosts, such as additional BPS, increase in price after each purchase.
Diamonds can be obtained:
*from microtransactions
*from daily logins
*by completing [[Achievements|achievements]]
*by watching ads
*by completing other actions in game (e.g. destroying the 10th 10<sup>th</sup> planet for the first time will yield 100 diamondsDiamonds) Unlike most resources, Diamonds are not lost when attacking a planet or entering a [[Black Hole]]. {{Main page|title = Diamonds|text align = left}} =Skill Points=<div class="page_icon">[[File:Skill point.png|left|120px]]</div>{{skill points description}}{{Main page|title = Skill Points|text align = left}}
=Nanobots=
<div class="page_icon">
[[File:Nanobot.png|left|120px]]
</div>
The primary use of Nanobots is to kill the last percentage of a planet's population, which is usually harder to infect by using only [[Resources#Bacteria|Bacteria]]. Nanobots are really useful because they kill the remaining population which the Bacteria can't kill so easily. When using Nanobots, the game only uses the minimum number of nanobots that are required to kill off the remaining population. Similarly to [[Gene Strands]] and Bacteria, all Nanobots are lost when entering a '''[[Black Hole]]'''.
After destroying researching '''[[Quantum Robotics]]''' at the fifth planet'''[[Dark Matter Institute]]''', the player unlocks has a 0.1% chance to produce 1 Nanobot with every tap. The Dark Matter Institute also has some other upgrades, which can increase [[Nanobot strength]] by 25%. All of the planets after [[Atreria]] have [[Planets#Nanobot Resistance|'''Nanobot resistance''']], which reduces Nanobot strength. Nanobot Productionstrength is not influenced by added [[Infectivity|infectivity bonus]]. {{Main page|title = Nanobots|text align = left}}

[[Minerals]] are collectibles that can be discovered through '''[[Planetary Research]]''' or from destroying '''[[Planets]]'''.
Each Mineral is unique and gives some permanent bonus to [[Resources#Bacteria|'''Bacteria''']] production.
