What is the best temperature range for medical bacterial growth?
It depends on what the bacteria is. If it is a bacteria that infects humans, then a temperature of 36-38 degrees C. Some bacteria like cold temperatures and some will grow in hot springs.
What is the maximum temperature you should store the bacteria plates at and why?
It all depends on what you wish to grow. If you want to grow bacteria that like to live on the skin, such as Staphylococcus aureus, then the best temperature is below normal body temperature or 86 to 95 Degrees Fahrenheit (30 to 35 Degrees Celsius). If you are interested in E.coli, then the temperature would be body temperature 95 to 98.6 Degrees Fahrenheit (35 to 37 Degrees Celsius). These do not grow well above or below these temperatures.
In biology what would be the best temperature for growth?
This is highly, highly highly situational. Some bacteria grow best at 100 degrees celcius (or more) and yet others grow near zero. Most mammilian cells will probably grow best around 37 though.
Does bacteria die when in the freezer?
Yep. There are some uncommon bacteria (psycrophiles) that are able to grow at low temperature, as Arthrobacter.
What pH and water activity (aw) levels do bacteria grow best?
pH levels vary among bacterial species. For example; acidophillic bacteria grow best at low pH. While alkalophiles grow better at alkaline (high) pH. Most bacteria grow best at high aw (>0.90). While few bacterial species such as xerophiles grow best at an aw of 0.6-0.7
Pathogenic bacteria grow best at body temperature?
4.6-7.5
What temperature does bacteria grow in?
It grows best around body temp 37c
What is the temperature grow in bacteria?
There are a few different temperatures that allow you to grow bacteria. Warm temperatures tend to grow bacteria rather well.
Why does bacteria grow fastest at room temperature?
It is actually wrong. The bacteria grow fastest in incubators.
What is the best temperature range for medical bacterial growth?

Why do you put bacteria in an incubator which is 25 degrees Celsius?
we incubate at 25 degrees Celsius because it is room temperature and it is the best temperature to grow bacteria that lives on objects like the counters, and sinks.
What factors can you control that would slow down the reproduction of the bacteria?
One of the factors that can you control that would slow down the reproduction of bacteria is the temperature and the humidity. Many bacteria grow best in a warm, humid environment similar to human body temperature.
What is the maximum temperature you should store the bacteria plates at and why?
It all depends on what you wish to grow. If you want to grow bacteria that like to live on the skin, such as Staphylococcus aureus, then the best temperature is below normal body temperature or 86 to 95 Degrees Fahrenheit (30 to 35 Degrees Celsius). If you are interested in E.coli, then the temperature would be body temperature 95 to 98.6 Degrees Fahrenheit (35 to 37 Degrees Celsius). These do not grow well above or below these temperatures.
Why does the freezer preserve food the best?
Bacteria grows slower at colder temperatures. In room temperature, the bacteria will multiply quickly and create mold, but at lower temperatures, the bacteria grows slower, or wont even grow at all.
In biology what would be the best temperature for growth?
This is highly, highly highly situational. Some bacteria grow best at 100 degrees celcius (or more) and yet others grow near zero. Most mammilian cells will probably grow best around 37 though.
Does temp effect bacerial growth Explain?
Yes. The warmer/humid the temperature, the faster the bacteria growth. It best grows at 10* to 40*. I think 37* will grow the best.
Does bacteria die when in the freezer?
Yep. There are some uncommon bacteria (psycrophiles) that are able to grow at low temperature, as Arthrobacter.
