Abstract

Microbes are known to grow and divide rapidly. Since microbes are invisible to the naked eye, how do we see them grow? The main tool that microbiologists use is the microbial growth curve. In this citizen science mini-project, we will take a detailed look at what is a microbial growth curve, and how to interpret the data.

Keywords: microbial growth curve, microorganisms
