What will I learn?
This course equips you with practical skills to design and analyse batch culture experiments, covering media selection, oxygen management, and detailed growth curve assessments. Link key metabolic pathways to ATP production, redox balance, and enzyme functions, while relating these to cell envelope, morphology, and biofilm development through contemporary assays and comprehensive data integration.
