A physician obtains a specimen from a patient with tuberculosis. This sample has one viable bacteria, an organism with slow doubling time in vitro of 48 hours, which corresponds to the growth rate constant in vitro of 0.04 h^-1. Estimating that the biomass of a single mycobacterial organism is 2.3x10^-13 g and that this organism is immediately going to enter the log phase, how many hours will it take to produce 10^-6 grams of biomass?
