Aims The purpose of the two experiments was to determine the fundamental effects that temperature has on the growth and survival of bacteria. During the first experiment five different bacterial broth cultures of Escherichia coli‚ Pseudomonas fluorescens‚ Enterococcus faecalis‚ Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus stearothermophilus were individually incubated at temperatures of 5‚ 25‚ 37‚ 45 and 55°C for one week in an aim to distinguish the effect temperature has on growth and survival of the five different
