Some types of mold are beneficial to humans in the production of antibiotics, such as penicillin, which is derived from the Penicillium mold and has revolutionized medicine by treating bacterial infections. Additionally, certain molds are essential in food production; for example, molds like Aspergillus oryzae are used in fermentation processes to make soy sauce and miso, while Penicillium species contribute to the flavor and texture of cheeses like blue cheese.
