Yogurt Trek: The Search for Probiotics
| Division: | Physical & Mathematical Sciences / None | | Category: | Senior | | Region: | Central Okanagan | | City: | Summerland, BC | | School: | Penticton Secondary | | Abstract: | My project investigated the concentration of probiotic bacteria in three probiotic yogurts after refrigerated storage (opened yogurt container) and also a week before the expiry date (unopened container). In both cases, the concentration decreased significantly but remained greater than one million/gram; the minimum number of live probiotic bacteria believed to be required for health benefits. |
