Curry, Spice and Everything Nice
| Challenge: | Health | | Category: | Senior | | Region: | Western Manitoba | | City: | Brandon , MB | | School: | Neelin High | | Abstract: | I used 15 different Indian cooking spices to see if they will inhibit the growth of E.Coli strain K12. This strain is not pathogenic or harmful to humans. These spices are commonly used in many developing countries, where western health care is not readily available, making them an easy remedy for E.coli related illnesses. My studies found garlic, clove and cinnamon to be top inhibitors. |
