and may result in an increase in a microorganisms size,population number,or both.A wide variety of techniques can be used to study microbial growth by following changes in the total cell number,the population of viable microorganisms,or the cell mass.Solid objects can be sterilized by physical agents such as heat and radiation;Liquids and gases are sterilized by heat,radiation,and filtration through the proper filter.A knowledge of methods used for microbial control is essential for personal and public safety.Concepts Microbial growth

the number of microbial cells in a population.Growth rate is the change in cell number or cell mass per unit time.The interval for the formation of two cells from one is called a generation.The time required for this to occur is called the generation time.7.2 Population GrowthGrowth is A growth experiment beginning with a single cell having a doubling time of 30 min is presented.This pattern of population increase,where the number of cells doubles during each unit time period,is referred to as exponential growth.Exponential Growth A growth experiment beN=N02n N=final cell number.N0=initial cell number,and n=number of generations.n=(log N0 log N)/log 2 =(log N0 log N)/0.301=3.3(log N log N0).The generation time g of the cell population is calculated as t/n,where t is simply the hours or minutes of exponential growth.Calculating Generation TimesN=N02n N=final cell numGrowth Cycle of PopulationsA typical growth curve for a population of cells can be divided into several distinct phases called the lag phase,exponential phase,stationary phase,and death phase.Growth Cycle of PopulationsA tGrowth curve of bacteria1.Lag Phase 2.Exponential Phase 3.Stationary Phase4.Death Phase Growth curve of bacteriaLag Ph Lag Phase When a microbial population is inoculated into a fresh medium,growth usually does not begin immediately but only after a period of time called the lag phase,which may be brief or extended depending on the history of the culture and growth conditions.This happens because for growth to occur in a particular culture medium the cells must have a complete complement of enzymes for synthesis of the essential metabolites not present in that medium.Lag Phase When a microb Exponential Phase It is a consequence of the fact that each cell divides to form two cells,each of which also divides to form two more cells,and so on.Most unicellular microorganisms grow exponentially,but rates of exponential growth vary greatly.In general,prokaryotes grow faster than eukaryotic microorganisms Exponential Phase It is a If a single bacterium continued to grow exponentially for 48 hr,produce a population that weighed about 4000 times the weight of Earth!This is particularly impressive because a single bacterial cell weighs only about one-trillionth(10 l2)of a gram.Stationary PhaseAn essential nutrient of the culture medium is used up or some waste product of the organism builds up in the medium to an inhibitory level and exponential growth ceases,or both.If a single bacterium con If incubation continues after a population reaches the stationary phase,the cells may remain alive and continue to metabolize,but they may also die.If the latter occurs,the population is said to be in the death phase.Death Phase If incubation continues af Population growth is measured by following changes in the number of cells or weight of cell mass.7.3 Measurement of Growth Population growth is measur The number of cells in a population can be measured by counting a sample under the microscope,either on samples dried on slides or on samples in liquid.With liquid samples,special counting chambers must be used.Total Cell CountDirect microsopic counting procedure using the Petroff-Hausser counting chamber.The number of cells in The usual practice,which is the most valid statistically,is to count colonies only on plates that have between 30 and 300 colonies.To make a 10-fold(101)dilution,one can mix 0.5 ml of sample with 4.5 ml of diluent,or 1.0 ml sample with 9.0 ml diluent.Viable Counting method The usual practice,whichThe usual way to perform a viable count is to determine the number of cells in the sample capable of forming colonies on a suitable agar medium.There are two ways of performing a plate count:the spread plate method and the pour plate method.In either case the sample must usually be diluted before plating.The usual way to perform a viaChapter-7-Microbial-Growth-and-Growth-control-微生物学-教学课件-英文版The number of colonies obtained in a viable count depends not only on the inoculum size but also on the suitability of the culture medium and the incubation conditions used;It also depends on the length of incubation.The length of incubation.Some

cell suspension looks cloudy(turbid)to the eye because cells scatter light passing through the suspension.The more cells present,the more light scattered and hence the more turbid the

volume to which medium is added continuously and from which continuous removal of any overflow can occur.Once such a system is in equilibrium,cell number and nutrient status remain constant,and the system is said to be in steady state.7.4 Continuous Culture:The Chemostat A continuous culture is es The most common type of continuous culture device used is a chemostat,which permits control of both the population density and the growth rate of the culture.Both parameters can be set by the experimenter.The Chemostat The most common type of coChemostat used for continuous cultures.Rate of growth can be controlled either by controlling the rate at which new medium enters the growth chamber or by limiting a required growth factor in the medium.Chemostat used for continuous Relationship among nutrient concentration,growth rate(solid line),and growth yield(dashed line)in a batch culture(closed system).At low nutrient concentrations both growth rate and growth yield are affected.Relationship among nutrient coSteady-state relationships in the chemostat.The dilution rate is determined from the flow rate and the volume of the culture vessel.Thus,with a vessel of 1000ml and a flow rate through the vessel of 500ml/hr,the dilution rate would be 0.5hr-1.Note that at high dilution rates,growth cannot balance dilution,and the population washes out.Note also that although the population density remains constant during steady state,the growth rate(doubling time)can vary over a wide range.Thus,the experimenter can obtain populations with widely varying growth rates without affecting population density.Steady-state relationships in Even over rather wide ranges,any desired growth rate can be obtained in the chemostat by simply varying the dilution rate.A practical advantage to the chemostat is that a population may be maintained in the exponential growth phase for long periods,for days and even weeks.The experimenter using the chemostat can have such cells available at any time.Experimental Uses of the ChemostatEven over rather wide ranges,The activities of microorganisms are greatly affected by the chemical and physical conditions of their environments.Understanding environmental in fluences helps us to explain the distribution of microorganisms in nature and makes it possible for us to devise methods for controlling microbial activities and destroying undesirable organisms.Four main factors:Temperature,pH,water availability,and oxygen.7.5 Effect of Environment on GrowthThe activities of microorganis Bacteria grow over a range of temperatures;they do not reproduce below the minimum growth temperattire nor above the maximum growth temperature.Within the temperature growth range there is an optimum growth temperature at which bacterial reproduction is fastest.Effect of temperature on bacterial growth rate Bacteria grow over a range of Enzymes exhibit a Q10 so that within a suitable temperature range the rate of enzyme activity

the oxygen diffuses into the medium.(b)Facultative anaerobes growth is best near the surface,where oxygen is available,but occurs throughout the tube.(c)Obligate anaerobes-oxygen is toxic,and there is no growth near the surface.(d)Aerotolerant anaerobes-growth occurs evenly throughout the tube but is not better at the surface because the organisms do not use oxygen.(e)Microaerophiles,aerobic

in toxicity for the host.Several agents are more toxic for the virus than the host,and there are a few agents produced by the host that specifically target viruses.There are several classes of chemotherapeutic agents that have been shown to be clinically effective in controlling viral replication.7.7 Viral ControlViruses actually use the host The most successful and commonly used agents for antiviral chemotherapy are the nucleoside analogs.The first compound to gain universal acceptance in this category was azidothymidine(AZT),Azidothymidine is chemically related to thymidine but is a dideoxy derivative,AZT inhibits HIV.Because the normal host cell function of DNA replication is targeted,these drugs almost always exhibit some level of host toxicity.Several other chemicals work at the level of viral polymerase.A relatively novel class of antiviral drugs are the protease inhibitors.Antiviral Chemotherapeutic AgentsThe most successful and commonAntiviral chemotherapeutic
