  1. *Biomax the maximum biomass; **rglc the average glucose consumption rate; ***Ybio/glc biomass yield to glucose consumption versus the Biomax. Statistics analysis was performed based on one-way ANOVA method and the data in the same column with the same letters (a–d) meant no significant difference (P ≤ 0.05)
