Microbiology Abstract: The purpose of this lab was to use the Kirby-Bauer method to test the sensitivity of Staphylococcus epidermis of specific areas on a petri dish. The antibiotics were gentamicin‚ novobiacin‚ and penicillin. This resembled a culture and sensitivity test that is preformed at the hospital’s laboratory to find out the resistance of a microorganism. This experiment was meant to use the naked eye and a magnifying glass when necessary. Procedures: This experiment called for prepared

1.4.1. Safety Aspects of Probiotics Today‚ there are evidences that probiotic strains used as commercial bacteria are safe to use in applications. The safety of the probiotic products is appraised with the phenotypic and genotypic characteristics and the statistics of used microorganisms (Çakır 2003). Safety aspects of probiotic bacteria include the following requirements. 1. Strains for human use are preferred to be human origin. 2. They are isolated from healthy human gastrointestinal tract. 3
