A2 Practical Investigations Title: The effect of Temperature on the growth of Aspergillus oryzae Develop a Hypothesis This particular investigation is to discover how a range of temperatures effects the growth rate of the fungi Aspergillus oryzae. Most fungi’s tend to survive within the temperature range of 5-35oC‚ with the optimum depending on their normal environmental temperature. The fungi Aspergillus oryzae is heterotrophic which means they taken in their food from dead organic matter and cannot

sterilizing it with 70% ethanol. Then trypticase soy agar (TSA) was poured into six groups of 60 Petri dishes (See Appendix 1). The dishes were labeled based on the antibiotic used and were left to dry and solidify at room temperature. After an hour‚ the dishes were placed in a refrigerator at three degrees Celsius. If there was visible condensation on the agar plate‚ they were flipped to avoid the contact of heat that drove the moisture out of the agar dishes. The contents of the broth culture of E.
