  1. astrains were cultured for 48 h in mineral salt medium supplemented with 1 g/L yeast exact and 20 g/L glucose at 37°C at a rotation rate of 220 rpm under aerobic conditions;
  2. bThe specific glucose uptake rate was determined between 0 h and 24 h of the fermentation. rCDW: residual cell dry weight.
  3. cData were expressed as average values and standard deviations (SD) of three parallel studies.
