Table 3 Fatty acid and biomass yields and rates, calculated during nitrogen starvation from shake flask cultivation on single sugars glucose and xylose. This includes timepoints between 24 h – 56 h for BOT-O on glucose and xylose, and BOT-A2 on glucose, as well as 32–56 h for BOT-A2 on xylose. For better comparisons yields were also calculated as an hourly rate
Strain | Sugar | YP/S (g/g) | Hourly YP/S (g/g*h) | YX/S (g/g) | Hourly YX/S (g/g*h) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
BOT-O | glucose | 0.06 ± 0.03 | 1.9 × 10−3 ± 1.0 × 10−3 | 0.15 ± 0.04 | 2.7 × 10−3 ± 1.2 × 10−3 |
BOT-O | xylose | 0.07 ± 0.03 | 2.2 × 10−3 ± 0.9 × 10−3 | 0.15 ± 0.04 | 2.7 × 10− 3 ± 1.2 × 10− 3 |
BOT-A2 | glucose | 0.06 ± 0.01 | 1.5 × 10− 3 ± 0.4 × 10− 3 | 0.25 ± 0.01 | 4.5 × 10− 3 ± 0.5 × 10− 3 |
BOT-A2 | xylose | 0.01 ± 0.00 | 0.2 × 10− 3 ± 0.1 × 10− 3 | 0.15 ± 0.03 | 2.6 × 10− 3 ± 0.9 × 10− 3 |
