GFP production in strain B13 (P_int-gfp) at different cell densities^a

Cell culture	GFP fluorescence intensity (AGV units) with 0.1 mM CBA		GFP fluorescence intensity (AGV units) with 10 mM CBA
	95th percentile	Top 5% MFV	95th percentile	Top 5% MFV
Chemostat, 6 days	83.8 (83.7-84.2)	86.0	80.9 (80.8-81.0)	84.7
Chemostat, 14 days	83.8 (83.5-84.1)	88.8	81.0 (80.8-81.2)	82.5
Starvation, 60 h	85.1 (83.8-87.4)	94.5	85.3 (84.2-86.3)	93.3

^aCells were taken from the chemostat after 6 days or 14 days of continuous cultivation or taken on day 6 and then incubated in batch culture without any carbon for 60 h. Cells were grown with 0.1 mM (OD₆₀₀ = 0.01) or 10 mM (OD₆₀₀ = 0.83) CBA. GFP fluorescence intensity values are given as for Table 1. Note that absolute values of GFP fluorescence in this table cannot be compared to those in Table 2 due to slight variations in the brightness of the UV light source.
