Phases of bacteria growth (in vitro)
Growth curve
• Lag
– Adapt to nutrients
• Log
– Active growth
• Stationary
– Death = Growth rate
• Death
– Nutrients consumed
– pH too low (why?)
• Optimize curves in production
Nutritional Factors
• Carbon Source
– Hetero- or Auto-
– Organic compounds or CO2
• Nitrogen Source
– NO3- ==> NO2 ==> NH3 to Amino Acids ==> Proteins
• Sulfur
• Phosphorus
• Trace Elements
– Fe, some required for growth or virulent
– Host sideophores bind Fe
All pathogenic bacteria are heterotrophic
-obtain energy by oxidizing organic molecules
(Carbohydrates, lipids and protein)
Metabolism- yield ATP as an energy source
-Aerobic respiration, 1 glucose produce 38 ATP -
enzymes
-Anaerobic respiration, 1 glucose produce 2 ATP
(fermentation) -enzymes
Requirement for oxygen in respiration
-obligate
-facultative

Temperature Requirements
• Mesophile
37℃ (Pathogenic bacteria)
• Thermophiles
– Hot spring, hot tubs-public
– Heat Resistant Enzymes in PCR
(Tag DNA polymerase)
• Psychrophiles
– Cold food (growth in transit)
– Listeria grows in hot dogs

Chapter 6
Hydrogen Ion concentration (pH)
• Neutralophiles (pH 6.0-8.0)
• Acidophiles (< pH 3.0) (Helicobacter pylori)
• Alkaliphiles (pH10.5) (bacteria from salina,
Vibrio. cholera)
Microorganisms regulate their internal pH
over a wide range of external pH values by
pumping protons in or out of the cell
Oxygen Requirements
• Classification
– Aerobic
– Anaerobic
– Falcultative Anaerobic
– Microaerophilic
O2 is reactive-toxic (binds e-’s)
Oxidization of compounds
Loss of energy from compounds
DNA molecule breaks
Why can some organisms grow in the presence of oxygen?
Toxic forms of oxygen need to be neutralized by enzymes
-Superoxide dismutase
-Catalase
-Peroxidase
If microbe does not produce these enzymes must have
anaerobic conditions Aero-
tolerant
Microaerophile

Culture medium
-the mixture of various nutrients that is suitable for
the growth of microorganisms
Types of Culture Media
-based on the function and chemical components
-based on the physical state
.
• Culture medium
A liquid or gel with mixture of various nutrients that is suitable for the growth of microorganisms
Classification of culture medium with based on the function and chemical components
components:
Basic medium
Enrichment medium (Basic medium + nutrients
Selective medium(medium + inhibitor)
Differential medium (medium + indicator)
Anaerobic medium
Liquid medium (nutrient broths or LB medium)
Solid medium (liquid medium + agar from seaweed)
Semi- solid culture
19
Based on the function and the chemical components
• Basic Medium
-contains the basic nutrients for the most bacterial growth;
-the base of other kind of media. e.g. broth.
Nutrient Medium/Enriched Medium
Additional or special nutrients (e.g., serum, growth
factors, trace elements) are added to support some
fastidious bacterial growth. e.g. blood agar.
20
• Selective Medium
the medium that can prevent the certain bacterial growth while permitting others.
e.g. SS agar
Differential Medium
Some special substrates and indicators are added into the media in order to produce a visual differentiation when several bacteria grow on the same kind of medium.
e.g. EMB agar (Eosin-methylene blue agar).
Liquid medium
Solid medium(agar 15g/L )
Semi-solid medium( agar 3~5g/L)
Solid medium
Richard Petri Petri dish
Semi-solid
medium
Angelina Fannie Eilshemius Hesse
Agar-used for jam、jelly、jelly drops…
1. Chemical: agarobiose
2. Not digested by bacteria,no nutrient;
3. Melted at 85 ℃; solidified at 32-40 ℃
Isolation:
• Streaking on the surface of
solid medium in Petri dish
Colony:
• A single cell bacteria grow to as
a visible cluster on the surface
of solid medium
-pure bacterial strain
Bacterial growth on solid
medium
Bacterial growth in semi-
solid medium
Flagella bacteria
Grow Diffusion,
turbid around
No flagella bacteria
Growth along the stab line,
clear around
No motility Motility
Review questions (chapter 2)
1. p41:1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and think about explainations.
2. Summary the differences between the cell wall of
G+bacteria and G-bacteria (related with clinical practice)
3. Why penicillin and lysozyme have less effect on G-
bacteria?
4. Structures of bacteria associated with clinical practice.
Explain which bacterial structures can be as an
antibiotics target.
Review questions(chapter 4 & 5)
1. In p65: question 1, is it right? Why?
2. In p65: question 2, 4, 5
3. Why a doctor should know the growth curve of
bacteria?
4. In p76: 1, 3, 5, 10
