What is thermophilic bacteria?
The thermoduric bacteria refers to the bacteria that can survive to varying extent. This type of bacteria is able to survive the pasteurization process.
How does heat effect rotting?
Temperature effects the decomposing of everything.
What is danger growth zone?
The temperature that bacteria grows in best. I believe it's between 40 and 110 degrees.
How does boiling preserve food?
Boiling preserves food by killing harmful bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms that can cause spoilage or illness. The high temperature of boiling water destroys these pathogens and enzymes that could cause the food to deteriorate. Additionally, boiling can remove excess moisture from food, preventing the growth of bacteria and the subsequent spoilage.
Why must the temperature of the agar be no lower than 45C and no higher than 50C when being poured into the plates?
the bacteria will dentaure and die off
Is it possible to survive for a bacteria in 1000 degree temperature?
No, most bacteria cannot survive in 1000 degree temperature as they typically cannot withstand extreme heat. Such high temperatures would denature proteins and destroy cell structures, leading to the bacteria's death.
What is the significance of the microbe deinococcus radiodurans?
This Bacteria can withstand tremendous amounts of radiation. This bacteria can also live in a vacuum!
How are fish and bacteria different with respect to the concentrations of H plus ions they can withstand?
fish can't photosynthesize, but bacteria can photosynthesize.
Are bacteria necessary for life?
no
How do sterilizing agents destroy bacteria?
BACTERICIDAL
Does temperature affect the elimination of bacteria on an object?
Yes, the closer to human temperature, the easier bacteria grows.
List the various requirements needed for culturing bacteria?
Requirements for culturing bacteria typically include a growth medium (such as agar or broth), suitable temperature and pH conditions, appropriate oxygen levels, and necessary nutrients (such as carbohydrates, proteins, salts, and vitamins). In addition, sterile techniques, proper incubation conditions (temperature and time), and equipment such as incubators, autoclaves, and aseptic techniques are essential for successful bacterial culture.
What temperature is bacteria killed at?
bacteria is killed at 100 oc
How does bacteria control?
Cooling can control the spread and growth of bacteria. As the temperature lowers, the movement and division of bacteria slows and eventually, as the temperature falls enough, ceases.
Bacteria is necessary for the production of?
Depends on the bacteria. For example, bacteria E. Coli is needed for production of vitamin K.
Which organisms are necessary for the recycling of nitrogen?
Bacteria.
How does cooling control bacteria?
Cooling can control the spread and growth of bacteria. As the temperature lowers, the movement and division of bacteria slows and eventually, as the temperature falls enough, ceases.
