“…However, mathematical comparison of whole curves can allow identification of microorganisms [55] or can simply be used for quality control purposes (i.e., a measure of the variation of a specific process monitored using its associated thermal power curve). Several approaches can be used to compare curves.…”

“…These thermal profiles have been repeatedly proposed as a potential taxonomic tool (Boling et a1 . 1973;Russell et al 1975; Monk and Wadso 1975;Beezer et al 1976;Ljungholm et al 1976;Newel1 1980;Herman et al 1980;Perry et al 1983).…”

A numeric method is suggested for the treatment of microcalorimetric curves of bacterial growth to provide a new tool for their automatic identification. In this method the microcalorimetric curves are searched against certain reference profiles (stored in a library) by means of a cross-correlation analysis and a parametric comparison. The matching between the new curve and each reference profile is evaluated by means of a specific identification coefficient which provides an objective criterion for the identification of each species. The reliability of the method is discussed.

“…The thermograms obtained with M . fermentans suggest that these organisms are less sensitive to variations in oxygen pressure than are bacteria (see Binford, Binford & Adler, 1973;Monk & Wadso, 1975).…”

SUMMARYA static ampoule microcalorimeter was used to study the growth of mycoplasmas, acholeplasmas and ureaplasmas. Growth as indicated by thermograms was compared with the results of conventional methods, namely, terminal dilution counts, plate counts, turbidimetric measurements, glucose consumption and pH changes. Removal of oxygen had little effect on mycoplasma growth. The microcalorimetric method is potentially useful for identifying and enumerating the members of the M ycoplasmatales.
