L. crescens growth at different temperatures with optimal pH and aeration requirements (250 rpm) constant. L. crescens was grown to exponential phase in Hi-GI at 250 rpm, 28 °C (OD600~0.7–0.8, Fig. 16) and washed with a sterile ACES-KOH buffer pH 6.5 prior to inoculation. Better growth is observed in M15 medium at 28 °C compared to 22 °C. L. crescens growth is similar in Hi-GI and BM-7 media at 22 °C and 28 °C. No growth is reported at 32 °C in the three media. I) Cell growth represented as optical density. II) Cell growth in Logarithmic (log2) scale of the optical density. a M15, pH 5.92, b Hi-GI, pH 5.92, and c BM-7, pH 6.5
