Bacterial populations grow at a really rapid pace, with their whole populations doubling within hours resulting in exponential growth models.
What is a microbial growth curve?
Bacteria are simple to cultivate in the lab, thus their growth has been extensively researched.
It has been established that bacteria will develop in a predictable manner in a closed system or batch culture (with no food added and no wastes removed), resulting in a growth curve with four distinct phases of development: the lag phase, the exponential or log phase, the stationary phase, and the death or decline phase. Additionally, this growth curve can provide an organism's generation time, or how long it will take for the population to double.
