Document Summary
Co-cultures - organisms working together to produce byproducts. What do lab ferment? stop the growth of any other microorganisms that might be trying to take over that environment. Carbohydrates help the bacteria ferment lactic acid which help fermentation. Lactic acid bacteria and carbohydrates are added to the mixture. Probiotics - help produce lactic acid, they outcompete pathogens in your gut. They produce organic acids that are healthy for you. Can get probiotics through a variety of food. Ethanol can be converted to acetic acid. You care producing hydrogen ions, the bacterium through a variety of enzyme will use. ** via acetic acid bacteria acetobacter or glucobacter spp. Food poisoning-disease that results from ingestion of foods containing preformed microbial toxin ( exotoxins ). The microorganisms that produced the toxins do not have to grow in the host. The extra cellular molecules will make you the most sick, the molecules are sometimes secreted right into the food they are growing on.
