LAB REPORT MICROBIOLOGY -GROWTH CURVES

  

Figure 3 [7]: Plot Bacterial abundance (CFU/mL) versus time (min) on semi-log paper using table 4 both temperatures on the same figure. Use symbols with a corresponding legend to differentiate the data. Draw a line only through the exponential phase of the curve.

Table 5 [4]: Generation times of E. coli incubated at various temperatures. Determine the generation times of the bacteria growing during exponential phase at both 32C and 45C using figure 3 (Be sure to show your how generation time was determined on Figure 3.)
