Figure 3From: Benzoic acid fermentation from starch and cellulose via a plant-like β-oxidation pathway in Streptomyces maritimusTime-courses of dry cell weight using glucose as the sole carbon source: S. maritimus /WT in modified TSB medium with 5% tryptone and 3% glucose (open circles); S. maritimus /WT in modified TSB medium with 5% tryptone and 3% xylose (open triangles). Time-courses of produced benzoate in culture: S. maritimus/WT in modified TSB medium with 5% tryptone and 3% glucose (closed circles); S. maritimus/WT in modified TSB medium with 5% tryptone and 3% xylose (closed triangles). The dry cell weight and benzoate concentration were determined in the same culture. Each data point shows the average of three independent experiments, and error bars represent standard deviation.Back to article page
