Effects of alginate concentration, NaCl concentration, and pH on growth and P(3HB) production in Cobetia sp. IU180733JP01 (5-11-6-3) and Cobetia sp. IU190790JP01 (5-25-4-2). (A) Effect of alginate concentration on growth, P(3HB) production, and P(3HB) content of Cobetia sp. IU180733JP01 (5-11-6-3) in the MM medium containing 2% NaCl at 30°C, pH 5.0 for 3 days. (B) Effect of alginate concentration on growth, P(3HB) production, and P(3HB) content of Cobetia sp. IU190790JP01 (5-25-4-2) in the MM medium containing 2% NaCl at 30°C, pH 5.0, for 2 days. (C) Effects of NaCl concentration on growth, P(3HB) production, and P(3HB) content of Cobetia sp. IU180733JP01 (5-11-6-3) in the MM medium containing 3% (w/v) alginate at 30°C, pH 5.0 for 3 days. (D) Effect of NaCl concentration on growth, P(3HB) production, and P(3HB) content of Cobetia sp. IU190790JP01 (5-25-4-2) in the MM medium containing 3% (w/v) alginate at 30°C, pH 5.0, for 2 days. (E) Effects of pH on growth, P(3HB) production, and P(3HB) content of Cobetia sp. IU180733JP01 (5-11-6-3) in the MM medium containing 3% (w/v) alginate and 6% NaCl at 30°C for 3 days. (F) Effect of pH on growth, P(3HB) production, and P(3HB) content of Cobetia sp. IU190790JP01 (5-25-4-2) in the MM medium containing 3% (w/v) alginate and 5% NaCl at 30°C for 2 days. Closed bars, dry cell weight; gray bars, P(3HB) production; open bars, P(3HB) content. Dry cell weight was measured after freeze-drying. The P(3HB) content of freeze-dried cells was determined by the weight of the produced P(3HB). The data represent means ± S.D (n = 3).
