Table 2.
Summary of the kinetic parameters for the replicates of the aerobic conditions and the microaerophilic conditions with: tLag−Exp, duration time of the lag phase or time at which the change from lag phase to log phase occurs (h); μ max, maximum growth rate (log cfu/mL h−1); Log10 (N0), logarithm of the initial population (log cfu/mL); Log10 (Nmax), logarithm of the maximum population (log cfu/mL), and tExp−Stat, time in which the change from log phase to stationary phase occurs.
