Discuss a bacterial growth curve and phases of bacterial growth?
The bacterial growth curve is usually exponential in shape just like most of the living organism.
What are the conditions that contribute to bacterial growth?
they need oxygen and heat and moisture to live.
Why use isopropyl alcohol to inhibit bacterial growth?
Isopropyl alcohol is used to inhibit bacterial growth because it acts as a disinfectant. This kills the bacteria and prevent them from multiplying.
Does Bacterial growth affect temperature?
Yes. Bacterial growth increases with temperature or humidity. Lower temperatures will inhibit or completely stop bacterial growth, but not kill bacteria. The best temperature for fastest growth of some bacterial strains (such as E. coli) is the human body temperature at 37°C. However, most species cannot survive in extreme temperatures. One way to kill common bacterial pathogens using heat is by boiling, a common sterilization technique.
Blood test that check for bacterial growth?
A blood culture

What is the difference between bacterial and anti bacterial hand wash?
Bacterial hand wash favors the growth of bacteria on the surface of the skin ( hands). On the other hand ( no pun intended) ANTI bacterial hand wash does not favor bacterial growth and in fact contains agents to prevent any bacterial growth on the hands.
What is the danger zone for bacterial growth?
The "danger zone" for bacterial growth are temperatures between 5 and 60 degrees
How is bacteria used to make insulin?
Human plasmids introduced into the bacteria stimulate insulin production. A special enzyme is used to cut out the insulin gene from a human cell. It is attached to a bacterial chromosome which is also split open by an enzyme. The gene is then transferred into a bacterial cell. The gene makes the bacterial cell produce insulin.
Can bacterial growth in urine result in false positive for methamphetamine?
No, drug tests are designed with things such as bacterial growth in mind.
How do you destroy bacterial growth?
by distorting it
What are the conditions that contribute to bacterial growth?
they need oxygen and heat and moisture to live.
How do you identify bacterial cells that have taken up your gene of interest?
A standard test is the antibiotic resistance take up. This is where you confer resistance plasmids containing the gene of interest to bacterial uptake. So you use two antibiotics, Kanamycin and Penicillin, to test that your bacteria so infused is now resistant to these two antibacterial agents. A successful recombination exercise will lead to growth on this medium.
How the sound affect the bacterial growth?
pooop
What is the function of pyrogens?
inhibit bacterial growth
What enzyme inhibits bacterial growth?
polymerase
What liquids are most susceptible to bacterial growth?
There are quite a few liquids that are susceptible to bacterial growth. Water and sugary warm liquids are the most susceptible.
