Saccharomyces cerevisiae growth curve

Fig. 10.2. Standard curve for cell density define based on growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Figure 8.21 The content of different PolyP fractions in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells in the process of growth after re-inoculation of late-logarithmic cells on the fresh medium with a high initial culture density (a) re-inoculation from a P -limited medium (with 1 mM P ) to a complete Reader medium (with 18 mM P ) (b) re-inoculation from a complete Reader medium to a fresh one (o) polyP(I) (A) polyP(II) ( ) polyP(III) (a) polyP(IV) (x) polyP(V). The growth curves are shown below in Figure 8.23(c).

Curves of cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast growth in suspension at various concentrations of nickel (II) sulfate may serve as an example (Figure 1) [14], These curves are the evidence of toxic action of nickel (II) ions. Increase of toxicant concentration leads to decrease of rate during the period of exponential growth (parameter p in equation (7)) and maximum size of population of yeast (Parameter p/a in equation(7)) at one and the same initial size of yeast population, N0=100 cells/ml. 

Lead 1 is a broadly active conqxiund with commercial levels of pathogen control that also inhibits growth of yeast. Figure 1 shows a growth curve for Saccharomyces cerevisiae in the presence and absence of Lead 1.
