CO2 incubator
maintains CO2
level (5-10%),
humidity and
temperature (37o
C) to simulate in
vivo conditions.
Water bath
To warm media,
before placing on
cells
Can harbor fungi and
bacteria, spray all
items with 70%
ethanol before
placing in the hood.
Usually takes 10 -15
minutes for media to
warm, 5-10 for TRED
to thaw
Vacuum pump
For permanent
aspiration of
liquids (media,
PBS and TRED).
Use unplugged
glass pasteur
pipets, throw into
sharps box when
done.
Inverted Phase
Microscope
A phase contrast
microscope with
objectives below the
specimen.
A phase plate with an
annulus will aid in
exploiting differences in
refractive indices in
different areas of the
cells and surrounding
areas, creating contrast

Growth patterns and kinetics in batch

- growth phases
- effect of factors: oxygen supply
- heat generation

Growth Kinetics
Introduction
- Autocatalytic reaction:
cell concentration
substrates + cells extracellular products + more cells
S + X P + nX
S: substrate concentration (g/L); X: cell mass concentration (g/L);
P: product concentration (g/L); n: increased number of biomass.

Growth Kinetics
Introduction
- Quantifying cell concentration:
- direct: no suspended solid and interference
compounds.
cell mass concentration preferred
dry weight, optical density (turbidity) (600-700nm Wave
Length)
cell number density:
Petroff-Hausser slide (hemocytometer), plate counts, etc.
Growth Kinetics
- Quantifying cell concentration:
- indirect: direct method is inapplicable. (mold
solid state fermentation)
Cell mass can be determined by
measurement of protein, DNA or ATP. e.g. 1mg
ATP/g dry weight bacterial cell.
If 100 mg ATP/L is measured, then the cell mass:
100 mg (ATP/L)/1 mg ATP/g dry cells=100 (g dry
weight cells/L)

Cell lysis may occur and viable cell mass may drop.
A second growth phase may occur and cells may
grow on lysis products of lysed cells (cryptic

At the end of the batch growth period, the measured yields are
apparent as of endogenous metabolism occurring, Kd > 0,
which changes the metabolic pathways of the substrate.
