• Microbial growth is the increase in number of cells, not cell size

The Requirements for Growth: Physical Requirements
• Temperature– Minimum growth temperature– Optimum growth temperature– Maximum growth temperature

Psychrotrophs
• Grow between 0°C and 20-30°C• Cause food spoilage

The Requirements for Growth: Physical Requirements
• pH– Most bacteria grow between pH 6.5 and 7.5– Molds and yeasts grow between pH 5 and 6– Acidophiles grow in acidic environments

The Requirements for Growth: Physical Requirements
• Osmotic pressure– Hypertonic environments, increase salt or sugar,
cause plasmolysis– Extreme or obligate halophiles require high osmotic
pressure– Facultative halophiles tolerate high osmotic pressure

The Requirements for Growth: Chemical Requirements
• Carbon– Structural organic molecules, energy source– Chemoheterotrophs use organic carbon sources– Autotrophs use CO2
![Page 11: Chapter 3](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070423/568166af550346895ddaa7dc/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The Requirements for Growth: Chemical Requirements
• Nitrogen
– In amino acids and proteins
– Most bacteria decompose proteins
– Some bacteria use NH4+ or NO3
–
– A few bacteria use N2 in nitrogen fixation
• Sulfur
– In amino acids, thiamine and biotin
– Most bacteria decompose proteins
– Some bacteria use SO42– or H2S
• Phosphorus
– In DNA, RNA, ATP, and membranes
– PO43– is a source of phosphorus

The Requirements for Growth: Chemical Requirements
• Trace elements– Inorganic elements required in small amounts– Usually as enzyme cofactors

The Requirements for Growth: Chemical Requirements
• Oxygen (O2)

Toxic Forms of Oxygen• Singlet oxygen: O2 boosted to a higher-energy state
• Superoxide free radicals: O2–
• Peroxide anion: O22–
• Hydroxyl radical (OH)

The Requirements for Growth: Chemical Requirements
• Organic growth factors– Organic compounds obtained from the
environment– Vitamins, amino acids, purines, and pyrimidines

Culture Media
• Culture medium: Nutrients prepared for microbial growth
• Sterile: No living microbes• Inoculum: Introduction of microbes into
medium• Culture: Microbes growing in/on culture
medium

Agar
• Complex polysaccharide • Used as solidifying agent for culture media in
Petri plates, slants, and deeps• Generally not metabolized by microbes• Liquefies at 100°C• Solidifies ~40°C
![Page 18: Chapter 3](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070423/568166af550346895ddaa7dc/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Culture Media• Chemically defined media: Exact chemical
composition is known• Complex media: Extracts and digests of yeasts,
meat, or plants– Nutrient broth– Nutrient agar
