Hi guys
I will be taking one single strain of probiotic after rifaximin treatment which one would you suggest for Hydrogen Sibo with Diarrheas (Boulardi is a no go since im using antifungals). I really do not want to cause relapse since its my 3rd round of Rifaximin...
Thank you in advance!
Preferably in the European Union. The Zbiotic product, which is based on the modified Bacillus subtilis ZB183 bacterium, is more expensive. Maybe somewhere this bacteria can be bought cheaper. It can't be ordinary Bacillus subtilis, just a modified version of ZB183 that helps with hangover
hi! iβm a high school student (yes iβm sorry for wasting your time) but i recently conducted a science experiment.
i am testing the antibacterial activity in native australian leaves. i cultured bacillus subtilis on nutrient agar plates with a small sample of leaf powder (different leaf powder on each dish- leaves were collected, dried for 2weeks and ground) incubated at 37Β°c for 48hours.
i was wondering if someone could help me interpret this- plate 1 (acacia melanoxylon) shows the bacteria growing regularly, the leaf powder was shown to have no effect
on the other hand, plate 4 (banksia integrifolia) showed no bacteria growth, but instead a ring of mould? surrounding the leaf powder.
other dishes (i have not attached photos but can send if needed) also have interesting results, notably one dish where bacteria + mild both grew around the leaf powder
i was wondering what the mould was caused by and additionally, whether it was the mould, the leaf itself or both that prevented growth of bacteria?
thank you
Anyone had luck with Bacillus subtilis fungicide to ward off botrytis?
I grow outdoors in central, coastal California. I had the same issue last year.
I a couple of clones just ready to harvest when I noticed. The clones came from Dark Heart. I've been spraying with Dr. Zymes from the get go.
The other plants that I've started from seeds, soaked in H2O2 dilute as a preventative, are in
veg. I sprayed them all down with baking soda/veg oil/drop of organic dish soap as a topical. They too get Dr. Zymes.
Does this work and how often during veg?
I have read that the bacillus subtillis can prevent systemic infections. Anyone tried this?
Hey all, I wanted to share with you something that appears to have finally sent my long-lasting blepharitis into remission. I realize that this is completely anecdotal and all the standard caveats (causation, n=1, etc.) apply, but my right eye cleared up in a matter of weeks without prescription antibiotics and it cost me very little.
What I did was very simple: I started taking a probiotic known as Bacillus subtilis. I had gone to the doctor several times for all the standard remedies (erythromycin ointment, antibiotics, etc.) and even had my swollen eyelid drained once, but nothing was working. However, my GP did make an offhand comment that people who have chronic blepharitis tend to have high staph counts. Fast forward to 2021, and I stumble on this article from the NIH: https://www.nih.gov/news-events/news-releases/nih-study-finds-probiotic-bacillus-eliminates-staphylococcus-bacteria
Apparently, bacillus subtilis produces compounds that kill staph. You can find this probiotic very cheaply online, so I figured that I'd try it out. So far, it has worked brilliantly. I've only been taking it for about a month, but my eye is completely clear and the residual redness has begun to fade. Obviously, I'm not your doctor, do your own research, etc. but so far taking this probiotic has been a game changer for me. Hopefully the blepharitis continues to stay away. I figured I'd share this on Reddit, if it can help someone else like it appears to have helped me then I'll be very happy.
Its modified version in the Zbiotic product is dedicated to hangovers. But it is very expensive. So I am thinking of using the regular bacillus subtilis version. Will it help with a hangover in some way?
I see a lot of people throwing out their jars and refusing to work with sour rot in their jars. The issue is a misunderstanding of what Bacillus Subtilis is. From day one of researching mycology we are told that contams need to be tossed. Indeed, there are contaminationβs that shouldnβt be consumed by humans like mold. But sour rot is not a mold.
Bacillus Subtilis is a bacteria. Our bodies actually need bacteria and viruses to survive. They help build our immune systems and also serve many other purposes. Bacillus is a probiotic that has many benefits including DNA protective and antioxidant activity, improved gut health, and may prevent cancer. Bacillus is also used in many OTC medications including probiotics for pregnant women. It has also been studied, tested and proven to not be a toxigenic to humans, animals, or plants.
The problem in Mycology is that Bacillus Subtilis is an anti-fungal bacteria. So yes, it can kill the mycellium in your jar. But if your jar is far enough along to Spawn to Bulk then you should use your discernment and decide whether itβs beneficial or not. Bacillus Subtilis in its vegetative state has also been proven to be killed by H202. A concentrated amount of H202 in your dunking chamber should be enough to not harm your developed cake while eliminating the bacteria.
Please note that bacillus spores can only be completely killed by heat treatment. Iβm not advocating for spreading contamination. Iβm just hoping to start a discussion on the identification of different contams and what they actually do to humans when consumed.
Also, letβs remember that mushroom hunting entails picking shrooms that have been left in the wilderness with all kinds of bacteria and other organisms. They are still edible. Positively identified psilocybin species have not caused harm from being consumed through cow poo, forest organisms, viruses carried by other animals, etc.
What do you all think about this?
Streaked this in the lab at the place where I'm doing my high school internship yesterday. It was my first time streaking in a test tube. So happy with the results!
The media is nutrient agar btw :)

Bacillus Subtilis is used in a study to help erradicate or tone down H. Pylori. What major brand sells this? Is it widely available? I canβt find it at the local drug store. It is used in conjunction with Streptococcus Foecalis, which I also do not know how to get in a practical way. Any Brazilians (and others, as well) familiar with these?
