Table 4.

Reduction in µmax for bacteria at the highest concentration of adipic acid allowing growth

Species Strains pH 7 pH 6
Reduction in µmax (%) Adipic acid (mM) Reduction in µmax (%) Adipic acid (mM)
C. glutamicum DSM 20300 22 ± 4 384 84 ± 6 48
C. glutamicum ZW04 60 ± 4 384 88 ± 5 48
E. coli K12 MG1655 8 ± 1 384 64 ± 2 96

The reduction in µmax is corrected for osmotic pressure and compared to control with no adipic acid. Values given are the mean ± standard deviation of five replicates
