1 CHAPTER 10 BACTERIAL GROWTH Eye of Science / Science Photo Library WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT? Increase in numbers is one of the requirements for infection. This increase is dependent upon bacterial growth. Understanding the requirements for growth will help in understanding the infectious process. Specific techniques used by clinical microbiologists have a key role in identifying and diagnosing bacterial diseases. OVERVIEW
2 BACTERIAL GROWTH Infectious organisms have specific growth requirements. These specific requirements allow for a maximum increase in numbers of infectious organisms. Increased numbers of pathogens help to defeat the host defense. BACTERIAL GROWTH Each division of bacteria is called a generation. The time between divisions is called generation time. Some pathogens have excessively long generation times while others have very short generation times. The shorter the generation time, the faster the number of bacteria increases within the host. BACTERIAL GROWTH
3 REQUIREMENTS FOR BACTERIAL GROWTH How well bacteria grow depends on the environment in which the organisms live. Growth requirements can be divided into two major categories: Physical Chemical PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS FOR BACTERIAL GROWTH The physical requirements for growth fall into three classifications: Temperature ph Osmotic pressure TEMPERATURE Bacteria are found in all ranges of temperatures. Bacteria can be separated according to temperature ranges in which they grow best. Psychrophiles grow at cold temperatures Mesophiles grow at moderate temperatures Thermophiles grow at high temperatures
4 TEMPERATURE The minimum growth temperature is the lowest temperature at which an organism grows. The maximum growth temperature is the highest temperature at which an organism grows. The optimum growth temperature is the temperature at which the highest rate of growth occurs. The optimum growth temperature varies between bacterial types. TEMPERATURE Temperature affects growth. Increased temperature breaks chemical bonds. This causes changes in the three dimensional structure. These changes can inhibit or destroy the ability for the molecules to function properly. TEMPERATURE Variable temperature requirements are seen in certain diseases. Treponema pallidum (the causative agent of syphilis) likes lower temperatures. Lesions are first seen on exterior parts of the body including lips, tongue, and genitalia.
5 TEMPERATURE Mycobacterium leprae (the causative agent of leprosy) also likes lower temperatures. Lesions are first seen on the extremities of the body including the face, ears, hands, feet, and fingers. ph Bacteria grow in a wide range of ph values. Most bacteria prefer the neutral ph of 7.0. Some bacteria are acidophiles that grow at extremely low ph values. Helicobacter pylori (causes stomach and duodenal ulcers) grows at a low ph value but is not an acidophile. ph ph can negatively affect protein structure. An excess of hydrogen ions causes bonds to break. This changes three-dimensional structure. Changes in three-dimensional structure destroy protein function. Destruction of protein function can be a lethal event.
6 OSMOTIC PRESSURE Osmotic pressure is the pressure exerted on bacteria by their environment. One of the major agents exerting such pressure is water. Osmotic pressure can inhibit bacterial growth. High salt concentrations can be used to preserve food (cure meats). Cause a hypertonic environment and plasmolysis. This is an imperfect way to preserve food because some bacteria are halophilic and thrive in high salt concentrations. OSMOTIC PRESSURE Halophilic organisms can be divided into: Obligate requiring a high salt concentration Extreme requiring very high levels of salt Facultative can grow either with or without high salt levels OSMOTIC PRESSURE The human body provides bacteria with the following: Optimal osmotic pressure Optimal temperature range Optimal ph range The human body is therefore an excellent incubator for pathogens.
7 CHEMICAL REQUIREMENTS FOR GROWTH Many of the chemical requirements for bacteria are the same as for human cells. The chemical requirements are almost as variable as bacterial species themselves. Several core chemicals are required for bacterial growth. CHEMICAL REQUIREMENTS FOR GROWTH CARBON All biological molecules contain carbon. Bacteria are classified based on ways that they acquire carbon. Chemoheterotrophs obtain carbon by breaking down other carbon molecules Chemoautotrophs obtain carbon from CO 2.
8 NITROGEN Nitrogen is involved in protein synthesis. It is an integral part of amino acid structure. It is part of the structure of nucleic acids. It can be obtained in a variety of ways: Decomposition of existing proteins From ammonium ions found in organic materials Nitrogen fixation SULFUR Bacteria must have sulfur to make amino acids and some vitamins. Sulfur is obtained from decomposition. Sulfur can be procured in the sulfate ions (SO 4 2- ) and from H 2 S. PHOSPHOROUS Phosphorus is essential for the synthesis of nucleic acids, AMP, ADP, and ATP. It is a major component for the development of the plasma membrane. Bacteria obtain phosphorus by cleaving ATP or ADP or from phosphate ions.
9 ORGANIC GROWTH FACTORS & TRACE ELEMENTS Bacteria use growth factors such as vitamin B 1, B 2, and B 6. Bacteria cannot synthesize these growth factors so they must be obtained from the environment. Bacteria also require potassium, magnesium, and calcium as enzyme co-factors. Some bacteria also require trace elements such as iron, copper, molybdenum, and zinc. OXYGEN Many bacteria do not require oxygen for growth. Some die in the presence of oxygen. This is due to the production of the superoxide free radical form of oxygen. This form is unstable and steals electrons from other molecules. This then leads to the death of the organism. OXYGEN There are two types of bacteria that grow in the presence of oxygen: Aerobes require oxygen for growth Facultative anaerobes can grow with or without oxygen. Both types produce an enzyme called superoxide dismutase that converts free radical oxygen to molecular oxygen and peroxide.
10 OXYGEN Peroxide is also poisonous. Bacteria produce two enzymes to deal with peroxide: Catalase converts peroxide to water and oxygen Peroxidase converts peroxide to water. OXYGEN There are three major categories of bacteria based on oxygen use: Obligate aerobes require oxygen for growth Obligate anaerobes cannot survive in the presence of oxygen Facultative anaerobes can grow with or without oxygen. OXYGEN There are two additional smaller categories of bacteria based on oxygen use: Aerotolerant grows in oxygen but does not use it in metabolism Microaerophile requires only low levels of oxygen for growth.
11 GROWTH OF ANAEROBIC ORGANISMS Special growth media and incubation conditions are required for anaerobic bacteria to grow. There are two methods used for culturing anaerobic bacteria. GROWTH OF ANAEROBIC ORGANISMS The first method uses the medium sodium thioglycolate, which forms an oxygen gradient during growth. Aerobic organisms grow at the top. Anaerobic organisms grow at the bottom. Facultative anaerobes grow throughout the medium. GROWTH OF ANAEROBIC ORGANISMS
12 GROWTH OF ANAEROBIC ORGANISMS The second method for growing anaerobic organisms is in a GasPak TM jar This incubation container provides an oxygen-free environment. Only obligate and facultative anaerobes can grow via this method. GROWTH OF ANAEROBIC ORGANISMS GROWTH MEDIA Growth media must provide all of the essential growth factors. Some bacteria are considered to be fastidious. They require a large number of these growth factors rather than just one or two growth factors. They grow very slowly and can be missed diagnostically.
13 GROWTH MEDIA There are two types of growth media: Chemically defined media Complex media CHEMICALLY DEFINED MEDIA Chemically defined media are those in which the chemical composition is precisely known. They are used for the laboratory analysis of compounds produced by specified bacteria. COMPLEX MEDIA Complex media contain not only numerous ingredients of known chemical composition but also digested proteins and extracts derived from plants or meats. The exact chemical composition of these digests and extracts is not known.
14 COMPLEX MEDIA Complex media are often called a nutrient and are available in two forms: Nutrient agar (solid) Nutrient broth (liquid) GROWTH MEDIA: Identifying Pathogens Growth media can be used to identify pathogens in several ways. All use selective media and differential media A selective medium is one that contains ingredients that prohibit the growth of some organisms while fostering the growth of others. A differential medium is one that contains ingredients that can differentiate between organisms. Many selective media are also differential media. GROWTH MEDIA: Identifying Pathogens Several types of media can identify pathogens. Bismuth sulfate agar only grows Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi (causes typhoid fever). There are selective media for the variety of Neisseria pathogens. Blood agar media identify production of hemolysins. There are three types of hemolysins: alpha, beta, and gamma.
15 GROWTH MEDIA: Identifying Pathogens CDC/ Dr. Richard Facklam CHARACTERISTICS OF BACTERIAL GROWTH Bacteria divide primarily by binary fission The parent cell divides into two daughter cells. Each division is considered a generation. The time between divisions is the generation time. CHARACTERISTICS OF BACTERIAL GROWTH Panel b: Dr Kari Lounatmaa / Science Photo Library
16 CHARACTERISTICS OF BACTERIAL GROWTH Generation times vary between bacterial species and are heavily influenced by: Environmental ph Oxygen level Availability of nutrients Temperature THE BACTERIAL GROWTH CURVE Lag phase bacteria are adjusting to their environment This varies depending on the organisms and the environment. THE BACTERIAL GROWTH CURVE Log phase the number of bacteria doubles exponentially There is a constant minimum generation time. This phase lasts only as long as a suitable level of nutrients is available. Bacteria are the most metabolically active and most susceptible to antibiotics.
17 THE BACTERIAL GROWTH CURVE Stationary phase the number of cells dividing is equal to the number dying It is caused by a decreasing availability of nutrients. THE BACTERIAL GROWTH CURVE Death phase (logarithmic decline phase) a continuous decline in the number of dividing cells It is caused by the exhaustion of the nutrient supply and by a build-up of metabolic waste. MEASUREMENT OF BACTERIAL GROWTH There are two ways to measure bacterial growth: Direct Indirect
18 DIRECT METHODS OF MEASUREMENT Direct methods of measuring bacterial growth include: Direct cell counts Viable cell counts Plate counts Most probable number Membrane filtration DIRECT METHODS OF MEASUREMENT Membrane filtration is used to look for water contamination This method generates the fecal coliform count. The filter pores are small enough to exclude bacteria. Filters are placed on media plates and incubated. The number of contaminating bacteria can then be counted. INDIRECT METHODS OF MEASUREMENT Indirect methods of measuring bacterial growth include: Turbidity most often used Total weight Chemical constituents Measuring cell products
19 CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS OF BACTERIAL GROWTH Many bacteria are fastidious in a laboratory setting. Some bacteria cannot be grown in a laboratory setting. Some bacteria have stringent nutritional requirements. All of these things can affect diagnosis and treatment of infection. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS OF BACTERIAL GROWTH Bacterial growth requirements can lead to missed identification of pathogens and wrong diagnoses This can be caused by improper handling of clinical specimens. It can also be cause by improper culturing. Specific standard procedures for collecting specimens are intended to limit these problems.
