data on the growth of Escherichia coli (E. coli) and to monitor how it grows under certain conditions. It has been demonstrated that the levels of glucose and dissolved oxygen were found to affect the rate of growth of E. coli proportionally with a lack of oxygen resulting in the lowering of the pH. In this experiment the growth of E. coli was studied at constant temperature (37 0C) at which it grows ideally. Experimental results for the growth of Escherichia coli showed good agreement with theory
