and Streptococcus thermophilus are the only 2 cultures required by law (CFR) to be present in yogurt. Other bacterial cultures‚ such as Lactobacillus acidophilus‚ Lactobacillus subsp. casei‚ and Bifido-bacteria may be added to yogurt as probiotic cultures. Probiotic cultures benefit human health by improving lactose digestion‚ gastrointestinal function‚ and stimulating the immune system. Lactic acid fermentation is the simplest type of fermentation. Basically‚ it is a redox reaction. In anaerobic

Abstract: The focus of this experiment was to identify unknown bacteria provided. The identification of unknown bacteria is beneficial in many aspects of the research of microorganisms and also aids physicians to treat patients correctly. Various tests were performed to provide the fermentation abilities‚ presence of particular enzymes‚ and biochemical reactions. Qualitative observations were made on the tests in identification process. The data from experimentation provided sufficient results

Bacteriophage are readily available in soil and marine communities. The purpose of this lab was to investigate the bacteriophage (If present in sample collected) by testing the phage on a specific strain of bacteria and to observe its characteristics. This same approach can be used when testing for resistance evolution within bacterial strains. Our hypothesis states that bacteriophage will not be present within our sample from East Lake. With the use of a phage buffer and soft agar‚ it provides an
