To anyone with information on Bifidobacteria,

I am currently writing a paper on the effects of Bifidobacteria on both
E.coli levels and the effects on human health. If anyone has any
referenced information (or internet references) on this, as well as as
the following questions, this would be greatly appreciated. 1. What is
the antibiotic that Bifidobacteria produces? Is it effective? 2. Why are
older aged people more vulnerable to E.coli poisoning? 3. Does decreased
Bifidobacteria levels increase the susceptibility of E.coli poisoning? 4.
Can oral forms of Bifidobacteria be consumed? How? Is it effective? 5.
Does fructooligosaccharides (FOS) promote Bifidobacteria growth? Does FOS
have any other effects on the human body?

Any prompt reply would be appreciated.
