The effect of temperature on the growth of the bacteria Escherichia coli DH 5 α

DH5α is specific strain of E. coli that is a nonpathogenic bacterium belonging to the genus Escherichia. I used this type of bacteria to study comparative growth rates at different temperatures (28°C, 37°C, and 45°C) and for different times (24h, 48h, and 72h). I predicted that bacteria would grow best at 37°C compared to the other temperatures, because the mean temperature of many mammals is 37°C. Mammals often serve as a host to E. coli. To compare growth rates, I grew the bacteria in liquid…

Findings in this study clearly affirm that adaptation of bacteria to certain stresses may reduce the effectiveness of preservation procedures applied during later stage of food processing and storage.

The compressive strength of Giomers is better than GIC; however, the biofilm formation of Giomer is higher than G IC, whereas GIC has a higher fluoride content but inferior in surfaces morphology characteristic.

EVOLUTION OF THERMAL DEPENDENCE OF GROWTH RATE OF ESCHERICHIA COLI POPULATIONS DURING 20,000 GENERATIONS IN A CONSTANT ENVIRONMENT
- BiologyEvolution; international journal of organic evolution
- 2001
Twelve experimental populations of the bacterium Escherichia coli evolved for 20,000 generations in a defined medium at 37°C to quantify the extent to which they became thermal specialists with diminished performance at other temperatures, and whether antagonistic pleiotropy or mutation accumulation was primarily responsible for any thermal specialization.

None of the four thermotolerant mutants had an advantage relative to their progenitor even very near the upper limit of the thermal niche; in fact, all of the mutants showed a noticeable loss of fitness around 41°C, distinct from those that permit tolerance of otherwise lethal temperatures.

As researchers tease out the molecular details of how bacteria sense and respond to their neighbors, they may learn how to foul up the counting systems of specific strains, which could lead to ways to thwart the ability of pathogenic bacteria to cause illness without generating side effects by wiping out indigenous flora, as current broad-spectrum antibiotics usually do.
