During the exponential phase of growth you note that the absorbance of an
e. coli culture goes from 0.2 to 0.8 in 120 minutes. what is the generation time in minutes?
given data: groth rate: 0.2 to 0.8 time taken:120 min required: generation time? solution: generation time: t/n generation time: 120/0.2x0.8 120/0.16 750 min
