Culture and Growth conditions

Culture Media

A microbial culture medium is a mixture of substances that promotes and supports the growth and differentiation of microorganisms. Culture media contain nutrients, energy sources, growth-promoting factors, minerals, metals, buffer salts, and gelling agents (for solid media).

The culture media used for this sample is/are –

• ANAEROBACULUM MEDIUM (DSMZ Medium 104a)

The corresponding compositions of the culture media is/are –

• Name: ANAEROBACULUM MEDIUM (DSMZ Medium 104a)

Enzymes

• catalase

• cytochrome oxidase

Temperature

Generally, an increase in temperature will increase enzyme activity. But if temperatures get too high, enzyme activity will diminish and the protein (the enzyme) will denature.

On the other hand, lowering temperature will decrease enzyme activity. At freezing temperatures enzyme activity can stop. Repeated cycles of freezing and thawing can denature proteins. In addition, freezing causes water to expand and also forms ice crystals, hence cells begin to rupture.

Every bacterial species has specific growth temperature requirements which is largely determined by the temperature requirements of its enzymes. Each organism will have:

• a MINIMUM GROWTH TEMPERATURE,
• an OPTIMUM GROWTH TEMPERATURE,
• and a MAXIMUM GROWTH TEMPERATURE.

The temperature at which the samples of Acetomicrobium hydrogeniformans (Maune and Tanner 2012) Ben Hania et al. 2016 have been cultured is/are :

Temperature	Kind of temperature
55	growth
40 - 65	growth
55	optimum

Hence, from the above data, it is concluded that the bacteria is thermophilic .Thermophiles are “heat-loving” organisms having optimum growth between 50-60°C. Many thermophiles cannot grow below 45°C..

Isolation, sampling and environmental information

Isolation

Isolation refers to the separation of a strain from a natural, mixed population of living microbes, in order to identify the microbe of interest. This sample type is isolated from oil water separation unit effluent, Oil production water.

Location

The geographic location in which Acetomicrobium hydrogeniformans (Maune and Tanner 2012) Ben Hania et al. 2016 sample(s) is found is Alaska, North Slope Borough.

It is taken from USA, which is a country in the continent of North America.
