Lab quiz 11-13 Flashcards
Aerobe
Requires oxygen for survival
Anaerobe
No O2, obtain energy from fermentation or anaerobic cell resp.
Facultative Anaerobe
Can use respiration and fermentatiin, depending on presence of O2
Aerotolerant anaerobe
Don’t use O2,but have enzymes to detoxify it.
Obligate Anaerobe
Cannot survive in O2 environments, no O2 detoxifying agents.
Microaerophiles
Carry out cell resp, only tolerate small amounts of O2
Brewer Jar
Catalyst removes O2
Sodium thyoglycollate
Contains reducing agent, and O2 indicators.

TDT
Measures the time it takes to kill all of the bacteria at a specific temp.
TDP
Lowest temperature where the bacteria are killed in a period of 10 minutes.
