Although most bacteria are harmless, and many are beneficial, the risks of bacterial infections are great enough to warrant efforts to control bacterial growth.

One method used to control the growth of potentially dangerous bacteria is sterilization. Sterilization destroys all bacteria by subjecting them to great heat.

Another method of controlling bacteria is by using disinfectants-chemical solutions that kill pathogenic bacteria. They're also used for cleaning products.
