Figure 2From: A newly isolated Bacillus licheniformisstrain thermophilically produces 2,3-butanediol, a platform and fuel bio-chemicalEffect of initial glucose concentration on 2,3-BD production by strain 10-1-A. The initial glucose concentrations used were at 64.0 g/L (■), 91.0 g/L (●), 125.0 g/L (▲), 152.0 g/L (▼) and 180.0 g/L (★). The experiments were conducted in 500-mL Erlenmeyer flasks containing 100 mL of each medium with shaking at 180 rpm on a rotary shaker at 50°C.Back to article page
