Abstract
The ionic species that are formed during the microbial growth of Escherichia coli were determined by capillary isotachophoresis as a function of the time of cultivation. This formation was indicated by the change in a sum parameter, the impedance of the nutrient broth, measured by a special electrode system. Based on the determination of the individual ions formed under the given conditions (identified as acetate, lactate, alpha-ketoglutarate, fumarate, ammonium and probably a simple amine), the change in conductivity was calculated and compared with that obtained by the impedance measurement of the bulk medium. From the results it can be concluded that the change in the sum parameter as a function of time is originated by the ions determined.
