Good microbes can include probiotics which are used to replace the microbes found in the human digestive system, such as E. coli, which are bacteria that are needed for proper food digestion. It may come as a surprise, but there are several billion times more bacterial cells inside your body than there are human cells and most of them are "good".
In French, there is a bacterium called LACTOBACILLE that takes milk and turns it into yogurt. Also, some antibiotics such as penicillin (made from a type of fungus) contain a good type of potential pathogen (although not microscopic).
More examples of names of good microbes or pathogens with beneficial uses:
Various types of yeast (a type of fungus) are used for the production of beer, bread, and cheese.
Most strains of the bacteria E.coli are perfectly harmless and, in fact, can protect you against the more harmful types of enteric pathogens. That is why we have E.coli as part of our normal intestinal flora. Examples of the benefits of good gut bacteria: synthesize vitamins such as folic acid, vitamin K and biotin, and they ferment complex indigestible carbohydrates.
Modern biotechnology is often associated with the use of genetically altered microorganisms such as E. coli or yeasts for the production of substances like synthetic insulin or antibiotics. Using the same process, a multitude of drugs are manufactured relatively cheaply, including human growth hormone, clotting factors for hemophiliacs, fertility drugs, erythropoietin and other drugs.
In fact, advances in the understanding of biological phenomena, the science of Biology that facilitates medical, agricultural, and food advances, are not possible without model microorganisms including: E. coli, B. subtilis, Tobacco mosaic virus, and S. cerevisiae, to name a few.

Names of microbes?
Microbes are prokaryotic organisms, meaning they have no cell nucleus and they have the ability to replicate themselves. Microbes can be classified into 5 categories, namely: archaea, bacteria, fungi, protest, viruses, and prions.
Names of good microbes?
Some examples of beneficial microbes include lactobacillus, bifidobacterium, and saccharomyces boulardii. These probiotic strains can support digestive health, boost the immune system, and help maintain a healthy balance of gut bacteria.
The good and the bad things abot microbes?
Microbes play a crucial role in maintaining our ecosystems and are essential for food production and waste decomposition. However, some microbes can cause disease and infections in humans, plants, and animals. Proper hygiene and sanitation, along with understanding how to harness beneficial microbes, can help us better utilize the good aspects while minimizing the negative impacts of microbes.
Why is cellulose good for microbes?
Cellulose is good for microbes because it is a complex carbohydrate that serves as a source of energy and carbon for many microorganisms. Microbes that can break down cellulose, such as cellulolytic bacteria and fungi, play a crucial role in recycling organic matter and nutrient cycling in ecosystems. The ability to degrade cellulose allows these microbes to thrive in environments rich in plant material.
What can microbes do?
There are both harmful and useful microbes. Harmful microbes like bacteria,virus and fungus can cause diseases while some useful microbes like bacteria can help in fermentation process like the yeast or as food like mushroom and many lacobacillus microbes that help in producing vitamins and in synthesis of food.Many microbes help produce antibiotic medicines. Microbes like algae are edible or help by photosynthesis to maintain the CO2 -O2 balance in the environment.
Are all microbes good?
No, all microbes are not good. Some are very harmful for us . Some microbes such as- protozoa, bacteria, fungi can be bad for our health. Yeast is a type of microbe which we use to make bread.
