I began planning out my media experiment and what I would need. I want to look at how different growth mediums affect the growth of a bacteria, from the morphology of the bacteria's morphology, to the individual bacteria's morphology, to the protein expression. So I will be growing Deinococcus aquaticus on six different media and studying the differences and similarities.I also began reviewing a paper given to me by Chad, "Quantitative Characterization of the Growth of Deinococcus geothermalis DSM-11302: Effect of Inoculum Size, Growth Medium and Culture Conditions". It may provide some insight into the question of media effect, and could be interesting to either recreate the experiment with D. geothermalis or tweak it for D. aquaticus.
