Optimal bacterial growth depends on key physical parameters such as temperature, pH, oxygen levels, and moisture, each varying by species. Temperature required for bacterial growth: Bacteria have different optimal temperature ranges for growth: Psychrophiles: Grow at low temperatures (0-20°C). Mesophiles: Grow at moderate temperatures (20-45°C), including most human pathogens. Thermophiles: Grow at high temperatures (45-80°C). … Read more
