Parameter | M1 | Control | Percent improvement |
---|---|---|---|
Initial DCW (g/L) | 6.02 | 5.66 | – |
Final DCW (g/L) | 12.94 ± 0.54 | 9.83 ± 1.08 | +65.94 ± 16.08% |
Ethanol titers (g/L) | 122.85 ± 1.46 | 87.75 ± 1.30 | +39.99 ± 1.84% |
Ethanol yielda | 96.58 ± 1.14% | 83.99 ± 1.24% | +14.99 ± 1.51% |
aEthanol yield is expressed as percentage of the maximum theoretical ethanol yield (0.51 g ethanol per gram of glucose consumed)
