Fig. 1From: Removal of the product from the culture medium strongly enhances free fatty acid production by genetically engineered Synechococcus elongatus Effects of exogenously added palmitic acid on the growth of the WT and dAS1T cells. a Growth curves of WT (circles) and dAS1T (triangles). Cells were grown either with (+, open symbols) or without (−, filled symbols) 0.13 g L−1 of palmitic acid (PA). Data shown are the mean ± SE from biological triplicates. b Appearance of the cultures at t = 96 h, showing the growth defect of dAS1T grown in the medium supplemented with PABack to article page
