What is a stationary phase?
Stationary phase is the stage when growth ceases but cells remain metabolically active. Several physical and molecular changes take place during this stage that makes them interesting to explore. The characteristic proteins synthesized in the stationary phase are indispensable as they confer viability to the bacteria.
What is the stationary medium approximation?
what is the stationary medium approximation? n_a'' = 0 and x_a<<1 (advection is neglected) For diffusion in a stationary medium, the species diffusion flux is equal to the absolute flux associated with transport of the species.
