The document discusses bacterial physiology and growth. It covers the following key points:
1) Bacteria require nutrients like carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, sulfur, and phosphorus for growth. They also require growth factors and microelements.
2) Environmental factors that affect bacterial growth include temperature, pH, oxygen availability, and water availability.
3) Bacteria are commonly grown in the laboratory using solid or liquid culture media, which must be sterilized to obtain a pure culture and prevent contamination.
4) The bacterial growth curve consists of four phases: lag, log (exponential), stationary, and death phases. The bacteria acclimate, multiply rapidly, stop growing due to lack of nutrients,

9. 1-Nitrogen source; Ammonium (NH 4+ ) is used as the sole N source by most microorganisms. Ammonium could be produced from N 2 by nitrogen fixation, or from reduction of nitrate and nitrite. 2-Sulfur source; Most microorganisms can use sulfate (SO 4 2- ) as the S source. 3-Phosphate source (PO 4 3- ) is usually used as the P source. Bacterial Growth Nutritional factors
10. 4-Mineral source; For most microorganisms, it is necessary to provide sources of K + , Mg 2+ , Ca 2+ , Fe 2+ , Na + and Cl - . Many other minerals (e.g., Mn 2+ , Mo 2+ , Co 2+ , Cu 2+ and Zn 2+ ) can be provided in tap water or as contaminants of other medium ingredients. 5-Growth factors; Compounds that bacteria require but cannot synthesize Bacterial Growth Nutritional factors

13. Obtaining a pure culture A solid medium is required for obtaining a pure culture of microorganism. Agar: an algae extract, polysaccharide in nature, which very few bacteria can degrade. The agar plate contains 1.5% of agar. Colony: population of bacterial cells arising from a single cell. Cultivating bacteria on a solid medium (bacterial isolation)
18. Culture of microorganisms Complex (rich) media nutrient agar or broth; blood agar or chocolate agar for more fastidious bacteria. Chemically defined (minimal media) Selective media Inhibitors for organisms other than the one being sought are added. Culture media Differential media Substances that certain bacteria change in a recognizable way are added. Nutrient broth Glucose-salt Peptone Glucose Meat extract Dipotassium phosphate Water Monopotassium phosphate Magnesium sulfate Ammonium sulfate Calcium chloride Iron sulfate Water
20. Principles of bacterial growth -Bacteria multiply by binary fission . -Microbial growth is defined as an increase in the number of cells in a population. Bacterial growth curve Bacterial growth in laboratory conditions Generation time E. coli : 20 min M. tuberculosis : 12-24 h
22. A balance between slow loss of cells through death and the formation of new cells through growth and division. The bacteria die off rapidly, the curve turns downward, and the last cell in the population soon dies. Bacteria synthesize macromolecules required for multiplication. The length of lag phase depends on the conditions in the original culture and the medium into which they are transferred. The doubling time is measured during this period. The bacteria are most susceptible to antibiotics during this time. Bacteria stop growing due to decrease of nutrients and O 2 supply, and accumulation of toxic metabolites.
23. Assimulation (anabolism): energy-requiring Dissimulation (catabolism): energy-acquiring Bacterial Metabolism Focal metabolites: metabolic intermediates that link anabolic and catabolic pathways. Glycolysis Pentose phosphate pathway TCA cycle Respiration (aerobic and anaerobic) Fermentation

33. Thank you Study Questions Besides chemical nutrients, what are 4 other factors you would consider when trying to grow a bacterium for the first time? Why do you need to sterilize bacterial media? What are some ways you could do this? What would happen if you didn’t sterilize the media? What are the four phases of growth curve? What is happening in each?
