Related to log phase: Stationary phase, death phase

log phase

That portion of the bacterial growth curve at which bacteria are reproducing at an exponential rate.

log phase

the exponential phase of growth in a bacterial culture. Plotting the log of the number of cells against time gives a straight line. See LOGARITHMIC SCALE and Fig. 213 .
