The decrease in number of bacteria may even become logarithmic. Hence, this phase of growth may also be called as negative logarithmic or negative exponential growth phase. Near the end of the logarithmic phase of a batch culture, competence for natural genetic transformation may be induced, as in Bacillus subtilis [10] and in other bacteria ...
During this bacterial growth phase, the number of new cells appearing is proportional to the population. This terminological confusion between logarithmic growth and exponential growth may be explained by the fact that exponential growth curves may be straightened by plotting them using a logarithmic scale for the growth axis.

[120] [121] The second phase of growth is the logarithmic phase, also known as the exponential phase. The log phase is marked by rapid exponential growth. The rate at which cells grow during this phase is known as the growth rate (k), and the time it takes the cells to double is known as the generation time (g). During log phase, nutrients are ...
Logarithmically growing bacteria differ from stationary phase bacteria with respect to the number of genome copies present in the cell, and this has implications for the capability to carry out an important DNA repair process. During logarithmic growth, two or more copies of any particular region of the chromosome may be present in a bacterial ...
For protein expression and purification in bacteria it is recommended that protein induction and cell harvesting should be done at specific OD 600 (usually at the end of the log phase, OD 600 = 0.4). OD 600 is preferable to UV spectroscopy when measuring the growth over time of a cell population because at this wavelength, the cells will not be ...
Investigators Rarely Sustain Allegations Of Any Kind. Sources: Invisible Institute, City of Chicago, Census Bureau, CNN Of 10,500 complaints filed by black people between 2011 and 2015, just 166 — or 1.6 percent — were sustained or led to discipline after an internal investigation.
In an encore “20/20” airing Dec. 27 at 9 p.m. ET, the show, which originally aired in 2023, tells the story of Julie Jensen, the mother of two who was found dead in her bed in 1998.
The lag phase is not well known in microbiology, but it is speculated that this phase consists of the microorganism adjusting to its environment by synthesizing proteins specific for the surrounding habitat. [6] The log phase is the period where a culture experiences logarithmic growth until nutrients become scarce. The stationary phase is when ...
