The bacterial growth curve comprises four phases: lag phase, exponential phase, stationary phase, and death phase.
Le quattro fasi della curva di crescita batterica sono la fase lag, la fase esponenziale, la fase stazionaria e la fase di morte.
| Text | The four phases of the bacterial growth curve include lag phase, exponential phase, stationary phase, and death phase |
|---|---|
| Extra | Exponential phase: the bacteria are replicating with exponential (not linear) growth Stationary phase: there are fewer resources available for the bacteria to use, so they are replicating just enough to prevent a decline Death phase: the environment is now longer capable of supporting the bacterial population |
