Table 1 Measured OTRmax and maximum oxygen transfer capacities calculated according to an empirical correlation (OTRmax,Lattermann) as well as calculated kLa values during E. coli cultivations on synthetic Wilms-MOPS medium in 48 deep-well MTPs

From: Quasi-continuous parallel online scattered light, fluorescence and dissolved oxygen tension measurement combined with monitoring of the oxygen transfer rate in each well of a shaken microtiter plate
