Google Doodle is marking the birth anniversary of Dr. Stamen Grigorov – the Bulgarian microbiologist and doctor who discovered Lacto bacterium Bulgaricum, the bacterium essential to the fermentation of yogurt, which is to be found in nature in Bulgaria as a free element.
The bacterium was first described in 1905 by Bulgarian university student Stamen Grigorov in a report delivered at Pasteur institute in Paris. Lacto bacterium Bulgaricum is what makes yogurt a natural probiotic with a wholesome effect on human health.
One of the world’s first probiotics was developed by Prof. Nikola Alexandrov in the 1980s in Bulgaria on the basis of Lacto bacterium Bulgaricum.
