Hershey, Alfred Day, Bronfenbrenner, Jacques (July 1938) Factors limiting bacterial growth. III. Cell size and "physiologic youth" in Bacterium coli cultures. J Gen Physiol., 21 (6). pp. 721-728. ISSN 0022-1295
Abstract
1. Measurements of the rate of oxygen uptake per cell in transplants of Bacterium coli from cultures of this organism in different phases of growth have given results in essential agreement with the observations of others. 2. Correlations of viable count, centrifugable nitrogen, and turbidity, with oxygen consumption, indicate that the increased metabolism during the early portion of the growth period is quantitatively referable to increased average size of cells. 3. Indirect evidence has suggested that the initial rate of growth of transplants is not related to the phase of growth of the parent culture.
