Bacteria that grow optimally in a pH range of near neutral (neutralophiles) require robust mechanisms for cytoplasmic pH homeostasis in order to survive, and in some cases grow, during exposure to ...
pH is a measurable parameter between the values of 0 and 14, defining the acidity or alkalinity of a solution. Solutions with a pH = 7 are considered neutral, pH < 7 are considered acidic and pH > 7 ...
