Microbial Growth

The development of microbial growth is influenced by various natural conditions (both physical and synthetic) like pH, temperature, saltiness, gas focus (O2, CO2, and H2), nutrients, water action, and assimilation. Knowing the distinctive physical and chemical factors that influence the development and endurance of microbial growth in the climate will assist with reinforcing endeavors outfitted towards their control. These lines lessen or diminish their harmful impacts on humankind, creatures, and the climate.

Assume that after washing your hands, you leave ten bacterial cells on a new bar of soap. You then decide to do a plate count of the soap after it was left in the soap dish for 24 hours. You dilute 1 g of the soap 1:106 and plate it on heterotrophic plate count agar. After 24 hours of incubation, there are 168 colonies. How many bacteria were on the soap? How did they get there?
A serial dilution of a bacterial culture yields the following number of colonies. Which plate(s) should be used to determine the original cell density?

A broth culture is initially inoculated with a single bacterial cell. For the first hour the bacteria has a generation time of 30 minutes, for the second hour the generation time has been reduced to 15 minutes, and for the third hour the generation time has been reduced to 10 minutes. At the end of the third hour how many bacteria are present in the broth culture?
Per the USDA, whole, unpasteurized fresh eggs can contain no more than 50,000 CFU/mL bacteria in a standard plate count. You are curious if the fresh eggs that you buy from your neighbor are considered safe to consume so you use your eScience Microbiology kit to test these eggs using direct plate count after serial dilution. After you complete the experiment, you obtain 74 countable colonies from the 10-2 dilution plate. The inoculum volume you plated was 0.1 mL. How many bacteria are present in 1 mL of the egg you sampled? Are these eggs considered safe to consume per USDA standards?
