Talk:Bifidobacterium

Old comments
I deleted the external link, because it starts a Java applet that crashes Firefox 1.5.0.4. In Window, it's necessary to close (Windows) Firefox with the Task Manager after visiting the link. I feel that the link should be reverted only after careful examination by somebody qualified to determine the safety level of the external link. (i.e. not me) In any case, this type of behavior by an external link (indeed, the dependence on Java, let alone the crash) significantly detracts from Wikipedia quality.

-- what's up with that runny poop business?

Article update
I'm working on updating the article a bit. I intend to bring it to at least "Start" Class. --4wajzkd02 (talk) 19:38, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Clinical uses
The reference cited to support the statement in the article, "Bifidobacterium species administered as a probiotic have been found be an effective treatment for some types of inflammatory bowel disease and have no negative side effects.", states that the evidence that Bifido is an effective treatment for any types of IBD was inconclusive, and recommends further study. This should be clearly stated in the article. Dr.khatmando (talk) 07:38, 17 April 2017 (UTC)
