00:00 mhm mm. Alright folks let's get . We've got we're gonna finish up

00:26 six, finish up chapter six which the last unit that will be covered

00:34 the exam don't have that much more do so like I'm gonna get out

00:38 here early. Um So of course week remember exam one? Next friday

00:47 will be multiple time slots there if haven't signed up. So the scheduler

00:53 open. Um so of course look the exam one review sheet if you

00:59 , if you're wondering what's gonna be the exam, that's what's on

01:02 that's what's right in front of my when the test is made, so

01:05 not on there. Not in the . Okay um Black bar, so

01:12 quiz this week is not a typical know 567 question quiz. Okay um

01:23 not it's about 2234 questions or Okay of course it's a little more

01:29 to do it in as well so be you know just be aware of

01:34 . So I think you have 45 to complete it. So account for

01:39 little more time I guess trying to . So that of course is open

01:44 through monday then um mastering. So have one assignment due on monday that's

01:51 chapter six. So next Tuesday. we started unit to next Tuesday and

01:57 material is available. Um So in seven is kind of an extension of

02:05 in a way and six we're talking growth. Um seven, it's actually

02:11 about how do we stop growth. it's about looking at the effects of

02:15 , disinfectants, etc, that kind stuff. Okay, so um

02:21 so with chapter six here we're looking growth, we talked about different types

02:28 media. How you put these ingredients . Remember the C H O

02:31 P. S. Right? We these in order to facilitate growth.

02:38 ? The molecules ah biomolecules, carbohydrates, nucleic acid structure made of

02:49 with these various atoms on them. , so we formulate these media with

02:55 contain these things. Of course. . And so we know that

02:58 different nutritional types require different combinations of things. Different forms, right?

03:04 you're autotrophs we need co two if head or a trophy like us,

03:08 need more complex organic materials. So account for those things, right?

03:13 then of course things like temperature ph levels all have to be adjusted maybe

03:21 to grow what you're trying to So today it's more of um looking

03:28 kind of you might call growth how there's no calculations you'll have to

03:33 but we're gonna look at kind of real basic things um basically how the

03:40 , if you if you inoculate a growth medium of some type of

03:44 you can track it from beginning to and it will show you some kind

03:50 pattern. Ok, they all pretty kind of the same uh pattern but

03:55 differ in the length of the different or how maybe how high it will

04:01 in terms of how much cells you'll these kind of things. But the

04:04 pattern, the kind of shape is same. So we'll go over that

04:09 then I think we finished up with of what I guess a growth

04:14 The biofilm formation, look a little of that and that will close out

04:20 Six okay. So let's start with question. We had we had this

04:25 not gonna be a clear question because already had it before. But it

04:28 this question. I think in chapter , in the context of chapter one

04:33 what we're talking about pure culture Remember I guess it was coke as

04:37 was coming up with the germ had to isolate bacteria to develop techniques

04:43 do this. So this kind one of the things we're talking about

04:46 at the beginning is the the use growth medium types of growth medium and

04:53 is their use for different things? . So this is kind of asking

04:56 question really, what's the use the of a liquid media versus a um

05:06 media, right, urine lab, obviously doing these things. And so

05:11 not using flask, you're using a test tubes but nonetheless to contain liquid

05:16 . And so if you have environmental sample or a patient sample

05:20 You might want to grow up what's there and then see what you've

05:26 So if you're doing a trying to a pure culture, in other

05:30 um have a plate that will ultimately only one type of bacterium, one

05:37 and one species only with nothing else it. Right? Your culture that

05:42 media has to be a part of equation, right? Because yeah,

05:46 may grow up in liquid, You'll do like maybe growth studies in

05:50 . But if you want to if have a mixture of things in

05:54 okay, you cannot hope to obtain pure culture because yeah, you can

06:00 a sample in the microscope and oh yeah, there's like X,

06:03 . Z. Whatever swimming around in . I can see there's like 10

06:06 20 different things swimming in there. , that's fine. And well,

06:11 you've established that. But there's something can do with that unless unless you've

06:15 to the future and come up with super micro tweezers and you can actually

06:18 out individual cells. Obviously that's You can't do that. So what

06:22 you do? You try to put on plate because now you get a

06:26 representation something, a physical entity that can deal with work with.

06:33 You can take that. Here's a of what was in here now in

06:39 form and you can isolate these different into pure culture. Right? So

06:46 so solid media is always gonna have be a part of that somewhere if

06:50 what your goal is. Okay, obviously we're trying to figure out growth

06:56 of organisms. X. Right? here is X. Right here and

07:03 a bunch of other stuff. Um you need to get this one away

07:09 everything else and in pure culture. now you can start with that plate

07:15 pure culture and do what you do you want to do. Knowing with

07:19 knowledge that any kind of data you're now from that pure culture, you

07:24 , applies to that organism and you're dealing with a mixed culture anymore.

07:29 . So um so again this kind goes hand in hand with we just

07:33 just literally just talked about liquid versus media. The utility of liquid media

07:40 if you want um growth studies because very common to get your growth

07:47 which you'll see here in a Okay So number of cells and

07:54 Okay. And you'll see an S curve. And so you want there's

08:00 uses to get something like that. . As we'll talk about shortly but

08:06 get these values right? These are values that you get and you plot

08:13 . Okay. And very common. absorb ints is how you do

08:18 You would take for example that flask test tube popping in the spectrum odometer

08:26 absorb light. The more dense cloudy sample is, the more light's

08:33 Um The less cloudy less light. your values will increase as they grow

08:38 you'll get something that looks as I like this. That's as shape,

08:42 ? So that's what it is for . Um You don't really use solid

08:46 to get a growth curve. You really do that. But um the

08:50 use of course, is to get of cells right if you're growing um

08:55 know, there's lots of examples in book of how um using DNA for

09:02 different things like sequencing D. A. Seeing what kind of jeans

09:06 there that begins with growing it in and then you get lots of cells

09:10 way and you harvest them and manipulate . Okay, so it's kind of

09:15 22 uses for liquid media. So and of course over here you can

09:22 at growth characteristics on a plate. . They all have different shapes,

09:26 is and you can use that as way to identify. So um point

09:30 there's different uses for these things. so um and so again we talk

09:35 functional type using the media to for testing different functions perhaps. So something

09:42 an assay right yourselves in that test are producing some kind of enzyme and

09:51 want to measure how active it right? So you would grow it

09:54 samples under a specific type of growth that would test for that particular

10:02 Okay it could be something like So light pace is ace if you

10:09 see a c. At the end world that typically means an enzyme

10:12 You're looking for enzyme activity that will down fats lipids or fats. Okay

10:18 this can show you that. So is a a plate I think this

10:22 corn oil. Okay with a blue in it. And if the bacteria

10:27 on it as you see here is um swab of growth then there's a

10:33 around the growth that halo represents enzyme been released. Breaking down the corn

10:39 . Right? The fat And you it as a halo around there.

10:42 activity. So it's like paste Right? Control of being like paste

10:47 there. You don't see that. so that's just a simple kind of

10:51 test and a visual you can see the plate. Um We've already talked

10:56 this one. This was the aero . Right? So you can use

10:59 as an about chemical test or anaerobic . Uh yet special conditions for

11:06 Right. Keep you have to keep out um General purpose. So this

11:12 this is where nutrient you've probably all about that. You've heard about that

11:16 lab. So nutrient aga is a hetero trophic medium. You just use

11:22 It grows most of your basic types bacteria like E. Coli and salmonella

11:28 lots of lots of bacteria that are and they are quite happy on that

11:32 . But there's lots of things that grow on it. But it's it's

11:37 used for that kind of purpose heavy in the lab uh enrichment. So

11:42 where you can manipulate the components in media to um favor the growth of

11:49 certain type of microbe. Maybe it's that grows in soil and it has

11:52 particular property and you kind of want get it away from these other types

11:57 soil. So you have a formulation for it and it enriches for those

12:03 over the others. So really just manipulating the growth conditions. Okay now

12:09 that's kind of on the fringes of . So when you look at enriched

12:15 can often um confused. Okay I difference for me between these two because

12:23 both are kind of in the enrichment you want to enhance the growth of

12:28 certain type by giving it the nutrients once. Right in selected medium.

12:35 are trying to just get some types of the way and look for one

12:40 . Right? But typically this involves adding an inhibitory agents. Okay you

12:48 do that in enrichment culture inhibitory chemicals . Okay so you're actively adding a

12:59 antibiotic you can add certain chemicals will growth of gram negatives others inhibit growth

13:05 gram positive. Right? So you're adding something that will inhibit select against

13:10 from growing enrichment is not really that just you're using your C.

13:15 O. M. P. Right? And changing those up to

13:18 of to fit one particular type of for um in selecting media you're adding

13:25 chemical that says you're gonna you guys grow because you can't survive with this

13:29 in there. So that's that's the between those two types. Okay um

13:35 differential medium I think I have a on that. Let's just look

13:41 Yeah selected media. So here's selective . So again they have specific chemical

13:47 in it meant to to stop the of certain types certain types and very

13:55 . Um Many of these media were for really wastewater analysis. Okay so

14:04 wastewater of course you've got lots of in wastewater. Okay so water quality

14:10 you're trying to look for types that indicators of fecal contamination of water.

14:18 ? You don't want to have those your drinking water obviously. So a

14:23 of this media is kind of developed that. So you're types that are

14:27 one indicator of fecal contamination is anybody very common part of everybody knows this

14:35 begins with e coli thank you. E coli so that's an indicator

14:41 It's by definition gram negative um ferments . Okay and so you look for

14:48 of waste water that are that? and so how do you find it

14:52 waste water when there's all the other in there. That's where you select

14:55 media. So you add agents that inhibit grand positive. You don't want

15:00 in there. So you can add things like a don't even know

15:04 But one of the chemicals in these called bile salts. Okay. And

15:09 actually inhibits gram positives. So you you're going to favor the growth of

15:13 negatives which e coli is one of . So that's what the selected media

15:17 do. Now this selective media is this heck tones and terek. So

15:24 also doubles as being differential. So media Is one that you're looking

15:32 You're adding things into the medium to the appearance of a certain metabolic

15:40 And it gives you a visual if positive or negative we just saw the

15:46 light paced activity is one of Okay. So that could be differential

15:51 seeing if bacteria has the enzyme or . Right. So it's a visual

15:56 you a visual whether it's a halo around the growth or here again features

16:04 all around the growth. So this actually blood on them. Okay.

16:09 this is used for uh streptococcus strains causes things like pneumonia. Some types

16:18 strep throat um uh scarlet fever. other types cause like uh cavities and

16:27 on your teeth. So it's a to each each of the different types

16:31 streptococcus have a reaction on blood. there's three types A. B.

16:37 C. I'm not gonna worry about specific reactions now at the point now

16:41 it's a differential media that will produce reaction to whether it can lice blood

16:49 or not in this particular medium. ? A complete clearing zone around the

16:54 be forms like a greenish color that's of of reacting with the blood cells

17:01 blood cells have hemoglobin and it kind reacts and forms of green color.

17:05 call this partial hydraulics. Sis again worry about it. We'll talk about

17:09 later. Just this is just in context of what differential media is and

17:13 is one that doesn't do it at . So you can group streptococcus side

17:17 are medically important uh This way. so just a differential test. Um

17:23 you can combine, you can combine and differential together. That's that's what's

17:29 here. Okay so this is both . It has chemicals to inhibit gram

17:36 . So your favorite growth of gram And this is one that selects

17:42 I'm sorry that differentiates between. So see black colonies and it's not really

17:48 clear here. The black is obviously but it's kind of yellowish colonies.

17:52 there's more colorless colonies. That's the of ones that are hard to distinguish

17:56 least from this image here. But this is like the yellowish that's like

18:01 uh more colorless colonies and kind. But so two things being differentiated.

18:09 can it ferment lactose. Can it ferment lactose? Right? And so

18:14 you can plus then you have a colony. If you can't it's more

18:18 color less less yellow or more And H. Two s ability to

18:25 sulfur. Okay and rather reduce And you produce this which is a

18:31 precipitate. Okay and so we basically three types. You see one that

18:37 um use utilize sulfur. One that utilize lactose and one that can do

18:44 . You can differentiate these three Okay and so you don't need to

18:50 this either. But the salmonella and are two types that will you'll separate

18:54 on this medium. Uh They're both negatives. They both are lactose

19:01 And but salmonella is able to use sulfur so it's a way to distinguish

19:06 those two. Anyway so and salmonella like e coli are gram negative enteric

19:12 . So in land and land bill with these things as part of the

19:17 projects like E coli, salmonella klebsiella blah blah. They're all like gram

19:24 fitness group. Okay so selective differential . Any questions about that you'll work

19:32 in lab, you work with, work with these next week in the

19:36 and A. T. A. one of them. And but progress

19:38 there too. Um Okay growth so so one way to kind of visualize

19:48 course is one of the terms we in describing growth or growth measurements is

19:55 we call generation time. Okay and on it's on this slide coming up

20:01 time is different ways to think about . So uh that what you see

20:06 is literally the production of one generation ? In a bacterial cell of

20:12 dividing to make two, that's one . Okay so in measuring bacterial growth

20:18 look at um how quickly can it generations? Okay and how can

20:26 from a growth standpoint, how can enhance in terms of growth features and

20:32 components to maximize that? Okay, often a consideration. So um so

20:39 measure using the term generation time. so how many generations have passed and

20:44 . Amount of time. So you want to put a time element to

20:48 a rate and see how fast it's doing this. Okay. And so

20:54 also when we talk about the growth , well here is one kind of

20:58 curve. And so what we call growth, okay in ecology they call

21:04 a. J. Shaped growth which why this looks like a.

21:08 Right there. And so it's very growth occurring very quickly. What we

21:13 exponential or logarithmic growth is very fast . That 1 to 2 to 4

21:19 8 to 16. Very fast. ? And so you know under optimal

21:26 like an E. Coli can Double every uh 15, 20 minutes.

21:32 very rapid. So just to put in perspective, think how fast it

21:36 to produce, generate generations of Right? So 20 generations takes maybe

21:43 hours in bacteria. Um I can coli for humans it takes 400 years

21:50 produce 20 generations give or take. ? So it's a puts it into

21:55 . Okay so they can grow very under optimal conditions. So here's a

22:00 time. So you can look at as length of time for a cell

22:03 divide into two or more practical? the length of time for a population

22:09 double. That's kind of what you when you're actually measuring unit measurements,

22:13 can't really measure how long you're not not looking at one cell dividing the

22:17 , You're looking at a population that's growing. So you look at how

22:21 it takes to double the population. . And so a number of variables

22:28 of course influence um if you're growing coli on nutrient broth. Ok.

22:36 basic formulation or are you growing it a defined medium? Okay, so

22:43 sources defined. Right, so which would you think it would grow faster

22:48 ? Would it be faster on rich or on defined medium? Yeah because

22:54 has a bunch of preformed stuff made it. Right. So things like

22:58 are probably in their things like amino . So it doesn't have to make

23:02 stuff like it wouldn't define medium. whenever you have to stop and make

23:07 that's going to stretch out your time you can grow as fast um if

23:11 got a lot of stuff made for that equates to faster growth.

23:16 so there's that there's a temperature, , all the kind of parameters.

23:20 talked about well influence, you know , how long, how fast they'll

23:26 . Okay. Um and so just great idea here is this is a

23:32 question. Again, you're not going do any calculations, but I just

23:35 to show you uh one of so in the end and of course

23:40 population size. Biggin. Biggin population uh little end is number generations.

23:46 this is so if you want to out how many cells you had at

23:49 time point, you would use the you started with times two to the

23:56 of generations. Okay, so this here kind of represents that That doubling

24:02 . Okay, the to the And so for example, if we

24:07 10 started with 10 cells. and we went five generations.

24:13 so we have that equates to 32 . Okay, times 10. So

24:20 started with 10 times two to the , we get 320 cells in in

24:26 time frame. And so that's another , you can also put time on

24:29 as well to see how fast this occurring in. Okay, so really

24:33 some kind of basic equations. But see um numbers wise, right,

24:38 of cells. 12 1,000,020 generations that bacterias can occur as I said,

24:46 will be 10 to 12 hours very . Right? And and typically when

24:51 dealing with a wide range of numbers this, you use a lot of

24:57 base 10 to kind of compress the . Okay. The same thing you

25:01 with ph ph is also a lot the base 10 scale. Um so

25:08 and so here's one way you would log base 10 values. Okay.

25:14 you can use uh absorbency measurements, put in spectral Radiometer and can use

25:20 number and take the log to the 10. But it will give you

25:24 a where it's in the call log growth, you'll see a straight line

25:29 . Okay. And that can give an idea of of the growth rate

25:35 getting this line. Okay. And if you didn't use log base

25:39 this kind of shows you that because numbers are so big, right?

25:44 be kind of deceiving looking at You might think, oh that's not

25:47 growth there. Right. But certainly is Right. We're going we're going

25:51 30 0 to 32 to 32,000. ? So if you put it in

25:55 base 10 it becomes really apparent. know that it's Yeah, it's growing

26:00 fast. Okay so again there's that shaped growth. Okay But we put

26:07 a linear form using log base 10 really see that. Okay so um

26:15 a common thing you do when you're with values that are so can be

26:18 wide right? In terms of Um Now so this is again just

26:25 of give you a A bit of in terms of how really how powerful

26:31 bacterial growth thing is. Right so with 10 cells and bacterial bacterial type

26:37 every four hours. Okay. Will the population size after 20 hours.

26:42 happens if it doubles every 15 Right so on this side 20 hours

26:49 have um five generations. Okay um then plug in the values. Right

26:59 from the previous example 320 cells. if we do the same parameters

27:05 Uh Start with ourselves in 20 How many generations? In 20 hours

27:11 ? Right but doubling time is now shorter. four hours down to 15

27:17 . Okay. And you get to 80 times 10 and that's that's a

27:24 difference. Obviously 10 of the 25th . That's like holy cow. Alright

27:30 that 23 20 that's just taking the time down from 4 to 15

27:35 Okay So um so you know think a uh a cell that's infecting

27:45 An infectious agent. And how gross very quickly bacterial infection can very quickly

27:52 serious? Of course. Right? you start out maybe with have a

27:56 and a few cells are in there very quickly they can grow and can

28:00 be a problem uh maybe causing systemic so that bacterial growth can be a

28:08 thing. Hence uh you know finding to stop growth of infectious agents.

28:14 . Um many questions. Okay So here's the questions here is a clicker

28:24 . So this will take us into this is all about. So let's

28:29 How do we do here? So batch growth curve is shown which the

28:34 among eight D. Is false. what you're looking at is so the

28:38 batch growth. So let's see um . So batch growth is you would

28:47 for what you're gonna measure growth in you're gonna grow it in. Make

28:52 medium uh told up to about here inoculate okay. And then likely put

29:00 in an incubator, shaking it. ? And then every at periodic intervals

29:07 would take samples out and you somehow growth, right? You can do

29:11 in different ways but that's what you're . And so you're basically following doing

29:16 . Getting a pattern like you see and then you're just following all the

29:20 to the end. Okay. And . Just taking samples out to measure

29:26 . That's all you're doing right? that's that's what we call batch

29:30 Okay? There's variations of that you do but when you see batch

29:35 that's what it is. Right. set amount of media, you take

29:39 to measure growth and that's it. . You're not doing anything else manipulated

29:43 any other way. Right? You're trying to get this kind of a

29:47 , whatever it may be. And of course there's lots of uses

29:51 that. Um Very often if you studying a particular microbe, this is

29:59 of the first things you do because may want to use that microbe to

30:04 experiments with or test in time activities or whatever. And you might like

30:11 um do those studies a time point it's going to be most functional,

30:18 active. Right? So if you know what the growth curve looked

30:21 then when it got to each you know you may you may have

30:26 this culture at at one and one not going to be very active.

30:31 ? Rather you want you want to to get somewhere or two is at

30:36 then, you know, you wouldn't that where that would be unless you

30:40 it and kind of growth curve. that's that's one use and so but

30:44 you can compare growth curves, you have the same media and maybe you

30:48 to test a some kind of chemical a antimicrobial agent. How well does

30:53 work? Well you would grow it on the medium then you add agents

30:58 see how it affects growth and so like that. Um But the other

31:04 is of course um if you are to see how can optimize growth,

31:09 fast can I get to get up of cells? Um The and so

31:16 different uses for this. And so so for this question so changes in

31:21 size occur during phases two and That is actually true. Okay we'll

31:27 into that. So there are subtle changes sometimes not so subtle but there

31:32 definite changes in size as you go the growth curve and there's reasons for

31:37 B is also true. Okay so are exponential changes obviously here. Okay

31:46 as well here in four. And so it's really in in this

31:53 That that's that's what Chapter seven is controlling microbial growth because you're trying to

31:59 different agents and see how fast can make that that death become very

32:07 Right? Very rapid. Um So because it is exponentially going down not

32:13 of course. Okay. Acclamation phase does fit with 11 is what we

32:19 lag phase. Okay. Um So would have been inoculated right here.

32:28 means kind of to seed it. take your un inoculated sterile media and

32:34 add cells. That's the inoculation. and that's what the kick starts the

32:39 thing but you always when you do you always have some it's always gonna

32:44 flat but how long it stays flat dependent on various factors. But it

32:49 does that. Um most likely to forming in those sports in those spores

32:55 a kind of a stress response. ? So it's going to begin to

32:59 under stress right in here? For . Right. So it's likely where

33:06 going to be forming spores called stationary . It's not completely limited for nutrients

33:14 it's getting there. So that's gonna the signal in time. And say

33:18 you can form in the sports let's it now. And then by the

33:22 we get to, by the time get to hear we'll be finished and

33:27 all in those sports. Right? if you wait too long you get

33:30 four and there's absolutely no no food because it does takes energy to make

33:35 endo sports. You have to have to be able to do that with

33:37 you wait too long, not gonna . Okay, so all of these

33:44 true none none of these are Okay, so I went through a

33:48 bit of these points but let's talk them again, add a little bit

33:52 to it in here. Okay, again this is the batch growth

33:58 And so every time you grow bacterium , a really anything protozoan and

34:07 Any kind of microbe or any kind living organism. You're going to get

34:12 kind of a curve. Okay um it's gonna look like this. What

34:18 what will vary will be the length a lag phase. Okay. The

34:25 steep the exponential growth is and maybe like that or like that. What

34:32 you? Um The length of stationary may differ how high it gets,

34:39 . The number of cells you attain vary. Um And of course the

34:45 phase, maybe it's like that. it's like that, it's like

34:48 So the basic pattern is the It's just you can have variations in

34:53 of these stages based on what the is, what you're doing to

34:58 what you're growing on. Okay. So the uh so in blackface.

35:05 starting here. Okay, lag face there. Um Okay, so cells

35:13 the cells are coming from or what are, they're obviously coming from either

35:18 plate that you're just transferring to liquid they came from another liquid you're growing

35:24 . Right? So whatever the state that, the cells on that part

35:29 will affect what happens when they go the new stuff. Okay, so

35:33 have to think about. Okay, yourself down to the level of the

35:36 , what's going on? Well, could be slight ph changes, slight

35:41 in 02. Maybe uh slight solute differences between the two uh enough to

35:48 of maybe a slight temperature difference enough kind of, you know, put

35:54 on hold for a little bit right it gets adjusted. Okay, After

35:58 . Excuse me, after that then okay. How long are they on

36:02 plate before you transferred? How long they growing in that liquid before you

36:05 ? Which is a very old. there's hardly any cells that are left

36:09 in there. Right? That that have an influence. So if you

36:11 start this, if your inoculation is one cell or is it 1000 cells

36:18 gonna make a difference. 2000 cells to grow faster. Um the difference

36:24 the media types, Right, are growing it on minimal media and now

36:29 gonna transfer to rich media or vice that will influence okay, if you're

36:35 rich media and you're going to the , well the brakes are gonna be

36:39 on because now the cells going, I don't have all the pre made

36:44 I did before, I'm gonna make and when it still has to make

36:49 , that means turn genes on translate, blah, blah,

36:53 blah. Right, that takes So that's, that's going to stretch

36:57 blackface. Okay, but you can it around if you go from a

37:02 to a rich that can turn it because now it's in a situation where

37:06 doesn't have to make a bunch of in the last phase can be

37:10 Okay, so, so a lot things go into into, but it

37:14 an acclamation phase for sure, Turning different genes etcetera, that kind of

37:19 . Maybe making stuff until but when gets going it does go pretty

37:26 So, and then we're in log . So as mentioned, you may

37:31 the term at some point. They about, you hear mid log

37:39 Okay, that's typically the most The cells are at their biggest,

37:44 you have cell cell size changes. they tend to be a little bigger

37:49 middle because remember they're dividing them to a rod shaped cells, right?

37:55 it's a singular form. And then they're actively growing, you'll see lots

37:58 forms like this. So in the the life of a cell,

38:04 it will begin to get a little bigger. So it elongates, it

38:09 a rod shaped, it was, clock will get bigger as well,

38:13 it'll kind of elongate somewhat and then a signal for it then,

38:17 let's just divide. Okay, so odd shaped they go kind of like

38:21 and then they become too and so volume will increase during log phase for

38:28 reason. Okay, and mid long again, it's kind of their most

38:32 , right? So if you're interested finding in in analyzing themselves saying,

38:37 , this is the point where they're have their biggest enzyme activity for whatever

38:41 studying then, that's probably where I to take samples at or harvest the

38:46 harvest means to basically take what's grown here and there's different ways to concentrate

38:53 down to a really thick mass of . You can centrifuge it. Alright

38:57 will get the cells out of solution splatter against the bottom of the tube

39:03 ? Making it thick, what we paste. Okay because you pour off

39:08 liquid enough with a thick then sell right? And that's what you can

39:13 and isolate D. N. Or whatever. Okay so um but

39:18 mid log is kind of the most um the most functional state you might

39:23 . But then um then as we to here this is let me erase

39:28 of this stuff here. So as get to about this point, okay

39:34 we're kind of at the tipping point into stationary phase. And right before

39:40 of course you've amassed a lot of at this point here. Okay and

39:46 you and of course you're rapidly running of nutrients, you can't sustain that

39:49 population anymore and that level of growth in batch culture. Right so they're

39:56 to begin to slow down very Okay they're not out of nutrients

40:01 Right so in in stationary phase basically growth rate equals death rate kind of

40:10 , right? So they're still hanging . So now you get another cell

40:14 size change. Okay so you have think of the situation they're in so

40:20 stationary phase limited for nutrients which is be a stress condition. Okay and

40:26 we'll assume they can't make an indoor right? So now what are they

40:30 do? Try to survive? Well strategy is to get smaller so they

40:35 get slightly smaller because now you have material to keep up with. Um

40:43 and so it's it's a survival Okay? And so they kind of

40:48 that they kind of then shut down essential functions. Okay so again the

40:54 is let's conserve energy until we can out of this mess, so to

41:00 . Okay of course if you're if in batch culture nothing's gonna help,

41:04 gonna it's going to die because you're gonna do anything to help them.

41:07 ? Um So they can even um of course there's dead cells around so

41:12 can kind of feed off the dead for a bit. Alright but eventually

41:16 gonna run out of food okay? you're gonna be in death face.

41:20 so very quickly with no nutrients it's wonder that that's exponential as well,

41:27 nothing to sustain anybody so they're gonna okay now and so uh so those

41:35 your four stages. Okay? Now just so contrast to batch crow so

41:42 at this right here, okay is curve we just looked at, so

41:49 this time point or so we can stuff. Okay. And if you

41:57 that you can get a response like . So you see now we've raised

42:02 growth amount of cells that we've achieved sell more cell growth. We can

42:09 more cells. That's what you wanna . You can just feed them uh

42:15 log or mid log phase and then continue to grow right up upwards before

42:21 go into stationary phase. So you them another boost basically. Okay and

42:26 uh so the thing you do so would you add what's gonna give it

42:32 biggest boost? Right so if you're it's growing glucose just give it more

42:39 . Okay add more shovel more glucose midway through growth and then it'll keep

42:43 okay. The um so if we let's say the batch growth medium has

42:55 translator glucose. Okay now we add 20 here. Okay so you might

43:06 well that seems kind of inefficient. not add all of it up

43:12 Why not add 40 g per liter at the beginning. 40 right

43:18 Okay um so the when you do , what you see is this So

43:28 you're not in the media with 40 per liter it would just be like

43:34 wouldn't do much. Okay and there's reason for that which is why you're

43:41 to do this you have to do in stages feeding stages. Does anybody

43:44 why you see this response? You 40 g from your glucose at t

43:54 zero anyway based yeah tom exactly. has to do with the osmolarity so

44:04 much of glucose in the beginning it be too much. So you're gonna

44:07 that effect. Cells are gonna be from growing. So you do it

44:12 feeding stages because it's just too much terms of solute concentrations. So um

44:19 and you can feed more than once you know? So um so the

44:26 so you know those I know my classes, the one that has the

44:30 makers in it, that's the kind stuff you do. Uh biotech is

44:36 of the departments will be responsible for lots of cells, be they bacterial

44:42 you know other cell types. And often about getting lots of stuff and

44:47 that's the kind of things you do get there. Okay. Um Another

44:53 you do uh is used basically a computer controlled uh bioreactor. Okay because

45:05 this you're basically controlling all the physical . You're controlling ph you're controlling oxygen

45:11 , you're controlling um feeds into the . Okay? And in something like

45:19 which is typically a shake flask, don't have that capability. There's some

45:23 you can do but you don't have control like this a computer controlled system

45:28 you can set parameters like add base it gets up to down to this

45:34 add acid begins to this ph um more auction. If we get to

45:38 level so all those things are programmed controlled. And under that situation you

45:44 gross that growth that you can hope achieve in something like this. And

45:50 these vessels can be. I've seen vessels be as big as 100,000 gallons

45:57 stories high blow your mind. And uh but that's what you gotta

46:03 for industrial scale you know because that's teaspoon stuff. That's like oil barrels

46:08 stuff you need. Okay. And you've got to grow this way.

46:11 all the parameters and get lots of that way. Okay. Um The

46:18 thing you do production of vaccines You have to have lots of of

46:22 if you're using the parts of the as antigens to make a vaccine,

46:25 do the same kind of things to lots of growth. Okay. Um

46:31 questions about that. Okay so growth the name of the game. Um

46:39 so the last segment. Okay, and the ability to attach. Let

46:46 open that our absolute requirements for I don't think that's gonna be lag

47:01 in that one. Okay, counting . You're not sure the shot.

47:41 . 21. Yes of course biofilm . I've been shocked if you don't

47:49 that one. Um And so then next part is uh let me push

47:58 up. So for this reason bow forming bacteria must have what they may

48:09 more than one of these but they have this. Okay. Okay.

48:58 . Any stragglers. 1 2nd. . Yes. Right. That's for

49:07 . Okay so surface um the to the biofilm you also need to have

49:16 steady supply of nutrients. Right? one thing about biofilm formation as you

49:21 see from some of these is it a lot of growth. Okay so

49:30 has to be some kind of a continuous supply of nutrients feeding the

49:34 Okay. Which is via very often found in a pipe for example which

49:41 water and then likely organic material flowing continuously. Maybe at different rates but

49:47 it's it's typically always there a mat top of this probably algae mat on

49:54 of pond water in the pond or . Your teeth. They've kind of

50:00 this with purple dye. It kind showed the the biofilm itself is not

50:04 but the dye they used to enhance I guess it was. But yeah

50:08 sticky feeling you feel in your teeth the morning. That's typically biofilm.

50:13 Obviously you think of the food that's there that they can eat, you

50:16 ? Not surprising. Um But in of from healthcare standpoint uh definitely different

50:24 of medical devices. Um Things like you put in the body like a

50:32 replacement, the hip replacement heart valve Things you insert like a catheter,

50:39 breathing tube. Um These kind of are all potentially or surfaces that can

50:47 inhabited by a biofilm. Okay and biofilms that are medically important are very

50:55 and problematic treat because of the nature the biofilm of antibiotics being able to

51:01 in there and penetrate. Okay so uh in fact I think I I

51:09 have it on me. I I was walking to my other class the

51:12 day, I actually took a picture two biofilms on campus. One is

51:16 looks very much like this is a over there by SnR SnR one that's

51:21 as a wooden board in front of . So it's dripping down and the

51:24 is just full of this slimy It was also on the on you

51:29 look on the windows and many of buildings um STL building windows. There

51:33 like black grimy biofilms on those as , so they're fairly prevalent if you

51:39 around. Um And so looking in , okay so here is the actual

51:46 . So how this happens is really because these things all come in sterile

51:51 . So if you mishandle them, them out and inserting them, why

51:55 wouldn't wear gloves while doing this. seemed crazy. But you know your

51:58 have staff on them or you touch nose because membranes of staff and you

52:03 potentially be transferring that to the You insert into a person and now

52:08 introduced a potential pathogen, like a biofilm. Okay. And um you

52:14 see the number of cells are growing and these can break off or elsewhere

52:19 the body um and and cause more illness. So this is definitely a

52:25 uh that you will definitely see in hospital setting. Hopefully not because of

52:31 , but uh you very likely will these things. Um Now, so

52:38 of biofilm formation. Okay, so not as you might think a it's

52:46 random coming together of cells and they this kind of sticky glue that all

52:52 out together. Right? It's it a orchestrated process. Number of genes

52:59 involved. There's chemical signaling going on kind of orchestrate this thing. It

53:04 a species specific phenomenon. So not bacterial types can do this.

53:09 But many types can And of course like we mentioned earlier, what they

53:15 have the capability of or having there specific to attach to a surface.

53:21 . And that's that's an important, important characteristic of biofilm form. Now

53:27 also have in these types that do . You have types they're called.

53:33 actually call these swimmer's. Okay. of a fancy name for this is

53:42 tonic cells that you see there. . This term basically means their motor

53:49 and they can come around. So the swimmers are kind of the

53:53 that are think of them as the looking for a place to land that

53:58 be a nutrient rich place. so then because biofilms are all about

54:03 surface they're gonna have to be able attach. Okay. So what happens

54:08 swimmers stick? So swimmers become stickers they lose the flagellum? Okay And

54:22 attach the surface. Okay so swimmers . Right? So swimmers swim looking

54:28 a good spot and land lots of . Okay? And then they lose

54:34 and they plant themselves. Okay? so initially they form what are called

54:40 colonies. So very tiny colonies of few cells um Now whether you go

54:48 further from this point okay is dependent chemical signals. Okay so the chemical

54:59 . Okay let me put this down stickers. The chemical signals are put

55:08 . And so if you have enough that accumulate right here, okay,

55:16 cells accumulate. You get enough of chemical signals. So the chemical signals

55:21 to reach a threshold. Okay? if you get there so it's like

55:25 uh you know your parliamentary procedure right an organization you have to have enough

55:30 there to constitute a quorum that you then vote. Right? So you

55:34 to get enough bacteria there on the because then you'll have enough signal produced

55:41 you reach the level at which the they can trigger the biofilm formation.

55:46 ? And so it will then progress there's enough cells there. Okay so

55:51 really dependent on having a lot of around you to start the biofilm.

55:55 logic the logic is if you've got more and more cells are sitting down

56:02 and giving up chemical signals, it be that there are lots of nutrients

56:06 for them to eat. Right? then more common more calm because it's

56:10 favorable environment in terms of nutrition. ? That's kind of one of the

56:14 things as well. Is there food us? Right. And so um

56:20 presumably you get enough cells reach You form the biofilm because it's favorable

56:26 do so because why else would the b more and more be accumulating if

56:31 weren't an indicator of good a good site, so to speak. Right

56:36 then that will kick in or the produce the Xo policy Saccharine, this

56:42 this is the the extra sailor This is the glue that binds everything

56:48 . Okay so again that's all. is a gene controlled process.

56:55 So there'll be genes will be turned to make the this sugary material again

57:02 of think about the glue. Okay then so you have growth really kind

57:07 initially on the surface in two Right then very quickly it goes in

57:14 dimensions. Right this way and so called biofilm. Towers right goes

57:21 not just this way on the surface then up. Okay. And so

57:27 can see that from the top little here right now, it's growing three

57:33 . And then of course you have flowing in around right through here and

57:40 may get holds form. Okay? then that will be that will more

57:45 get nutrients to those who are kind stuck in the middle, right?

57:48 dense. So everybody gets happy and nutrients okay. And but then you

57:54 it's it's likely or certainly likely that there's just not enough food anymore to

58:00 everybody. Okay? And so then kind of begins to dissolve and so

58:05 will come off and now you see cells have their um fragile and

58:13 So now we go back to being again. Right? So we're stickers

58:17 234 and now we're going back to a swimmer again because they want to

58:22 find another another more favorable spot to up the biofilm again. Okay.

58:28 you know if there is like the the pipe, you know if you're

58:33 steady flow of nutrients, I mean bio foam can last a long

58:36 Okay. So it's just a matter having the nutrients to sustain everybody.

58:42 . But those that can't that don't enough and they can get their tail

58:48 and start swimming. Okay? And another spot. Okay? Um So

58:56 any questions about that information. And so it becomes a problem in

59:01 of a medical medically important type of , getting antibiotics that can diffuse into

59:08 and then even have an effect. . So that's why these biofilm infections

59:14 like weeks and months to really get be able to control them.

59:19 And you may have differences in the types. Maybe more resistant types are

59:24 the in the interior, less resistant the outside. So you can develop

59:28 kind of a resistance as well as result of this. So they're a

59:32 . Um Alright so that closes out or check for six. So that's

59:41 for today uh test next week. if you got questions stopped by officers

59:53 . Yeah. Um Never officially met
