Figure 1From: Production of the short peptide surfactant DAMP4 from glucose or sucrose in high cell density cultures of Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) Growth curves and product formation profile for batch cultivation in LB medium supplemented with glucose (LBG) and induced at DCW ~1g/L. Biomass formation (DCW, circles) is reported on a logarithmic scale; product accumulation (DAMP4, open squares), sugar concentration (SS, open triangles) and acetate formation (Ac, inverted filled triangles) are shown. The point of induction is indicated by a dashed vertical bar. Experimental error represented as SD, n ≥ 2.Back to article page
