Optimal growth of E. coli occurs at 37 °C (98.6 °F) but some laboratory strains can multiply at temperatures of up to 49 °C (120 °F).Growth can be driven by aerobic or anaerobic respiration, using a large variety of redox pairs, including the oxidation of pyruvic acid, formic acid, hydrogen and amino acids, and the reduction of substrates such as oxygen, nitrate, fumarate, dimethyl sulfoxide and trimethylamine N-oxide.
