Final titers and final biomasses of different glycolic acid producing S. cerevisiae strains grown in SC media containing either d-glucose (20 g l^-1), d-xylose (20 g l^-1) and ethanol (20 g l^-1), or only ethanol (20 g l^-1) as carbon sources. The d-xylose utilising Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain H3675 (MATα his3 leu2 trp1 ura3::XYL1-XYL2 xks1::XKS1 MAL2-8c SUC2), a modified [CEN.PK113-1A [50]], was used as a parent strain for all S. cerevisiae glycolic acid production strains. ± presents the standard error of the mean (SEM; n = 3).
