Figure 4. Effects of spontaneous degradation on glutamine rate estimation.

Figure 4

(A) When first-order degradation of glutamine is not accounted for, the data do not fit the exponential growth model. (B) When the correct degradation constant is included, Equation (4) provides an acceptable fit to the raw concentration measurements. Flux is measured in units of nmol/million cells/hour.
