Six Types of Microbes Based on Oxygen Requirement • Aerobe • Obligate Aerobe • Facultative Anaerobe • Microaerophile • Anaerobe • Obligate Anaerobe
Aerobes • Use O2 in its metabolism and has enzymes needed to process toxic oxygen products. Bacillus anthracis
Obligate Aerobe • Can’t grow in the absence of oxygen. Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Microaerophile • Require small amount of oxygen for metabolism. Helicobacter pylori
Anaerobe • Grow best in the absence of oxygen.
Facultative Anaerobe • Doesn’t require oxygen for metabolism and is capable of growth in the absence of oxygen. Staphylococcus aureus
Obligate Anaerobe • Organisms that lack enzyme to process toxic oxygen. Clostridium tetani
