When the bacteria double at a constant rate
It is called exponential because Growth of a microbial population in which cell numbers double within a specific time interval.
A microbial limit test is done on products to see if thy complies with compendial specifications for microbial quality. The two parts of the test are the quantitative phase and the qualitative phase.
Inhibits microbial growth
the answer must be exponential growth model.
Do you mean logarythmic? if so, then yes! Like any bacteria that replicates via binary fission, there is an exponential phase of growth where the yeast are splitting into two at their maximum rate. This will plateau out as resources deplete and toxic byproducts build up - stationary phase. The growth rate would then stop and the yeast will start to die - death phase.
It is called exponential because Growth of a microbial population in which cell numbers double within a specific time interval.
4 stages lag phase, exponential phase, stationary phase and, decelerating phase
The bacterial growth curve is usually exponential in shape just like most of the living organism.
Bacteria are most sensitive to antibiotics during the exponential stage (rapid growth).
Lag phase, exponential or log phase, stationary phase, death phase, and phase of prolonged decline.
population growth begins to slow down
A bacteriostasis is a phase in which microbial organisms are prevented from undergoing further growth without actually being killed.
Exponential
Under ideal conditions, the growth of a population of bacteria occurs in several stages termed lag, log, stationary, and death.During the lag phase, active metabolic activity occurs involving synthesis of DNA and enzymes, but no growth.Geometric population growth occurs during the log, or exponential phase, when metabolic activity is most intense..Following the log phase, the growth rate slows and the production of new cells equals the rate of cell death. This period, known as the stationary phase, involves the establishment of an equilibrium in population numbers and a slowing of the metabolic activities of individual cells. The stationary phase reflects a change in growing condition—for example, a lack of nutrients and/or the accumulation of waste products.When the rate of cell deaths exceeds the number of new cells formed, the population equilibrium shifts to a net reduction in numbers and the population enters the death phase, or logarithmic decline phase. The population may diminish until only a few cells remain, or the population may die out entirely.
implementation of exponential groth
Exponential growth does not have an origin: it occurs in various situations in nature. For example if the rate of growth in something depends on how big it is, then you have exponential growth.
microbial growth is the multiplying by dividing of micro-organisms such as bacteria, algae, fungi etc.
