Bacteria are useful to us in many ways.For example,Lactobacillus,often called Lactic acid bacteria,helps in the curdling of milk.It helps in absorbing vitamin B12i.e Cyanocobalamine in the gut.Bacillus thurungiensis(BT),is a bio insecticide which helps in preventing the catterpillar larva from spoiling the plant.When the larva feeds on the plant,this bacteria enters it & releases toxins in the gut of the larva,by which the larva dies.They also help in decomposing organic matter.In mining these bacteria are used to detect the metals present in the earth's layers,by which about 50% mining cost is reduced.They are also useful in many other ways such as studying upper layers of atmosphere(exo microbiology),Staining reactions,in producing anti biotics such as PENCILLIN(pencillium notatum) and STREPTOMYCIN(streptomyecin greisius).............etc.
