A method is described for the indirect conductimetric assessment of microbial populations by the absorption of metabolic CO2 in an alkaline absorbent solution whose conductance is monitored. The method allows microbial growth in un‐modified conventional culture media to be monitored conductimetrically.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
