From: The influence of microbial physiology on biocatalyst activity and efficiency in the terminal hydroxylation of n-octane using Escherichia coli expressing the alkane hydroxylase, CYP153A6

Figure 4

Whole cell biocatalyst inhibition studies conducted by pre-adding (A) acetic acid (B) 1-octanol, to the reaction mixture at the start of octane hydroxylation. Biomass concentration was 4 g LBRM-1 with an initial glucose concentration of 5 g l-1. The end-point concentration was determined after 75 h of reaction in 40 ml amber vials.
