Macrokinetic characteristics for fermentations performed at different temperatures
| Macrokinetic parameter | Value at temp (°C)a |
||
|---|---|---|---|
| 15 | 25 | 30 | |
| Duration of glucose fermentation (h) | 300 | 142 | 72 |
| Lag phase (h) | 15 | 6 | <2 |
| Doubling time (h) | 6.5 ± 0.2 | 2.4 ± 0.1 | 1.3 ± 0.1 |
| Final dry biomass (g liter−1) | 5.8 ± 0.3 | 6.0 ± 0.6 | 5.6 ± 0.1 |
Doubling time and biomass are expressed as means ± SD.
