โฆ Synopsis
A determination of the effect of temperature on growth of the test organisms revealed an optimum range of 30"-37". From the pHgrowth studies, tolerance to low pH levels was observed for all the microorganisms but the optimal range was 5.1 -7.2. Various carbohydrates as sources of carbon were utilized.
A known concentration (2.4 x 106) of each test organisms used in these studies was obtained by dilution. Growth was assessed by harvesting the cells, oven-drying at 80 "C for 24 hours and weighing (MEYNELL and MEYNELL 1970). Incubation of the culture flasks was in temperature regulated continuous shaker (Model (324).
