Why does bacteria on agar plates need to be removed from the incubator after 24-48 hours?
Sophiejadeh
To avoid overgrowth of the bacteria you have inoculated. Depending on the type of media you use, you could also have a false reading if it is left in there for the wrong amount of time.

What is the exponential growth model for the Number Of Bacteria In A Culture Increasing According To The Law Of Exponential Growth 135 Bacteria In The After 2 Hours And 415 Bacteria After 4 Hours?
If B(t) represents the number of bacteria after t hours, then B(t) = 43.9157*(1.7533)t for t >= 0.
Can bacteria reproduce every two hours?
no.
A culture of 10 bacteria is started and the number of bacteria will double every hour in about how many hours will there be 3000000 bacteria?
After t hours the number of bacteria is 10*2t. So 10*2t > 3000000 => 2t > 300000 => t(log2) > log(300000) => t > log(300000)/(log2) => t > 18.19.. So in just over 18 hours (or 18 hours and 12 minutes, approx).
Bacteria split into 2 sepearte bacteria once every minute in 24 hours bacteria filled the test tube when was the test tube half full?
the test tube was half full in 10hrs 20min
A few bacteria are placed in a nutrient solution After several hours thousands of bacteria are present Which life activities are primarily responsible for this?
Digestion and movement .
How many hours must cultured microorganism must grow in an incubator?
24 hrs
How long do chicks stay in a incubator?
They should be left in the incubator until they are dry,fluffy and active. Do not rush to remove them as opening the incubator will effect the un-hatched and still hatching eggs. This usually takes up to 36 hours and the first hatch chicks will survive quite well without food or water since the humidity in the incubator keeps them hydrated. After 36 hours all unhatched eggs should be candled to verify viability, and the hatched chicks moved to a brooder box.
If the chicken eggs were at room temp for a couple hours can it still hatch in an incubator if it is fertilized?
yes it can
If the temperature in chicken egg incubator goes down to 60F for 2 hours then what will be happened?
Little chicken funerals
What is the duration of The Removed?
The duration of The Removed is 1.58 hours.
When a chick has come out of its shell can you leave it in the incubator for 3 weeks?
Nope you can't leave it in the incubator for 3 weeks! maximum is 48 hours you can make your own brooder all you need is 1 Large Card Board or Plastic Box 1 Red Heat Lamp 1 Lamp and either kitchen towel or newspaper for the base Oh and don't forget chick crumb and chick grit
A bacteria splits in half after 20 minutes so that after 20 minutes there are 2 bacteria and after 40 minutes there are 4 bacteria How many bacteria will there be after 2 hours?
A bacteria splits in half after 20 minutes, so that after 20 minutes there are 2 bacteria, and after 40 minutes there are 4 bacteria. How many bacteria will there be after 2 hours?
A colony of bacteria is growing exponentially according to the function below, where t is in hours. What will the approximate number of bacteria be after 6 hours?
486
How many bacteria do you have from a single bacterium after 24 hours if it reproduces every hour?
You will have 16,777,216 bacteria after 24 hours if it reproduces once.
How many times do you turn an egg to get it to hatch?
My auto turning incubator turns eggs every 2 hours, but I am trying out a differant incubator that you have to turn them... From what I've found out you need to turn them a minum of 3 times in 24 hours, Most things say to turn them 3-6 times... Hope this helps! Enjoy your incubating!

Why are bite wounds not sutured?
Bite wounds are never sutured (sewn shut) because of the possibility of enclosing bacteria inside the injury. After 24 hours, the packing will be removed and the hand reexamined for signs of infection.
