  1. aM  malic acid, S  succinic acid
  2. bValues refer to the organic acid distribution measured at 240 h minus the initial concentrations of malic and succinic acid and are given as percentage of the total acid concentration which is displayed in Table 4
  3. Data represent means ± standard deviation, n = 3
