Summary

Bibliographic review of the ability of certain bacteria to develop at low temperature together with equations describing the rate of growth in relation to temperature. Lipid composition, membrane fluidity and protein structure at low temperature are given. The acquisition of adaptability to low temperature and the causes of maximum growth temperature of psychrophilic and psychrotrophic bacteria are also given.
