Research is underway to investigate the effect of mechanical stress on          the growth and metabolism of microorganisms.  Mechanical stress here is         due to the physical crowding of cells against each other in an                  entrapped environment.  Specific objectives of the research are:  to            characterize microbial growth as a function of mechanical stress; to            characterize the morphology of mechanically stressed microbial cells;           and to test a water stress hypothesis.  By contributing to an improved          understanding of entrapped cell physiology, this study intends to               facilitate the design and analysis of immobilized cell technology.
