Chemostat mass-based yield ratios (SA/AA, FA/AA and Y Glc,SA ) plotted against D. The average YGlc,SA is relatively stable at 0.48 ± 0.047g.g−1. FA/AA is close to the equimolar value (0.77g.g−1) at a D of 0.8h−1, decreasing to zero as D is decreased. SA/AA is in the vicinity of 1.4g.g−1 for D values below 0.5h−1, while a slight decrease is observed at higher D values.
