Lactobacillus rhamnosus bacteria, coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). Lactobacillus bacteria are probiotic bacteria, which are useful for human and animal health as they produce bacteriocins (toxins that kill off competitive bacteria). This prevents infection by pathogenic bacterial strains. They are usually added to probacterial foods such as yoghurts. Magnification: x13,280 when printed at 10 centimetres wide.
