Glucose, maltotriose, and unlabeled pullulan concentrations were 0.875 μmol L-1 monomer-equivalent. concentration was 40 μM as K; concentration was 16 μM as Na2HPO4. +AA treatment included all 20 genetically-encoded amino acids at equimolar concentrations, for a total concentration of 5.25 μM-C. n.m. indicates that xylan hydrolysis in 2006 was not measured in Isfjorden waters.
