Hello.
I am in desperate need of some advice regarding an experiment.
I am testing the purple non-sulfur bacteria Rhodospirillum rubrum.
My aim is to compare the rate of growth of the bacteria using light and
fermentation for energy metabolism.
But, should I be testing just fermentation(dark cupboard with sugars) vs just light (U.V light box, no sugars. Or should I test U.V light + sugars, and sugars + no light.
I really need some advice.
Thanks.
