Abstract
The equations of Monod that describe the course of bacterial population growth and substrate concentration during continuous culturing are usually analysed with reference to steadyβstate conditions. These equations are analysed to give information on the course of bacterial population growth from inoculation to the achievement of a steadyβstate condition. For common values of certain parameters occurring in Monod's development, growth is well approximated by an exponential law (logarithmic phase) which depends on: (a) the maximum specific growthβrate constant for the organism and medium concerned, and (b) the constant dilution rate.
