Modeling surface growth of Escherichia coli on agar plates.
Surface growth of Escherichia coli cells on a membrane filter placed on a nutrient agar plate under various conditions was studied with a mathematical model. The surface growth of bacterial cells showed a sigmoidal curve with time on a semilogarithmic plot. To describe it, a new logistic model that we presented earlier (H. Fujikawa et al., Food Microbiol. 21:501-509, 2004) was modified. Growth ...
متن کاملGrowth of the Escherichia coli cell surface.
Phage T6 was used as a label to follow the growth of the outer membrane in a strain of Escherichia coli temperature sensitive for the production of the T6 receptor. Extension of the surface takes place at the cell poles. Small cells extend at only one pole, whereas larger cells grow from both poles. The change from unipolar to bipolar growth appears to depend on the attainment of a particular c...
متن کاملEquilibrium Isotherm, Kinetic Modeling, Optimization, and Characterization Studies of Cadmium Adsorption by Surface-Engineered Escherichia coli
Background: Amongst the methods that remove heavy metals from environment, biosorption approaches have received increased attention because of their environmentally friendly and cost-effective feature, as well as their superior performances. Methods: In the present study, we investigated the ability of a surface-engineered Escherichia coli, carrying the cyanobacterial metallothionein on the cel...
متن کاملHerpetomonas megaseliae and Crithidia harmosa: growth on blood-agar plates.
A technique for culturing two species of trypanosomatid flagellates on blood-agar plates is described. Herpetomonas megaseliae and Crithidia harmosa were grown as discrete clone colonies on plates prepared in sterile petri dishes with a medium derived from that of Tobie et al. (1950, J Parasitol 36: 48-54). Plates were inoculated with 0.01 ml flagellate suspension and the inoculum was spread ev...
متن کاملAtypical reactions of Escherichia coli on eosin methylene blue agar.
Evidence is presented that atypical reactions of Escherichia coli on eosin methylene blue agar are due to variations in pH in localized areas of the medium.
