Fig. 1From: Metabolic engineering enables Bacillus licheniformis to grow on the marine polysaccharide ulvanGrowth screening of ten different organisms. The growth of these organisms was investigated using ulvan-derived monosaccharides (rhamnose, xylose, glucuronic acid), ulvan and ulvan hydrolysate B (UHB) which was generated with F. agariphila enzymes recombinantly expressed in E. coli (see Additional file 1: Table S1, Reisky et al. [14]). Cultures were grown in triplicates (*duplicates) in 96 deep-well plates in 1Â mL culture volume. The OD600nm was measured after 48Â hBack to article page
