TABLE 3.
Influence of an elevated concentration of bacteriological peptone (BP), Lab Lemco (LL), or yeast extract (YE) on μmax, X1, I1, X2, I2, YX/S, and mS of L. curvatus LTH 1174 in MRS medium at a constant temperature of 25°C and a constant pH of 5.5
| Componenta | μmax (h−1) | X1 (g of CDM liter−1) | I1 | X2 (g of CDM liter−1) | I2 | YX/S [g of CDM (g of glucose)−1] | mS [g of glucose (g of CDM)−1 h−1] |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard MRS | 0.47 | 0.29 | 1.67 | 0.85 | 0.14 | 0.17 | 0.18 |
| BP | 0.58 | 0.39 | 1.28 | 0.91 | 0.26 | 0.21 | 0.18 |
| LL | 0.48 | 0.38 | 1.00 | 0.78 | 0.41 | 0.22 | 0.26 |
| YE | 0.49 | 0.41 | 1.10 | 0.99 | 0.57 | 0.24 | 0.45 |
