Figure 5From: Engineering E. colistrain for conversion of short chain fatty acids to bioalcoholsSubstrate specificity of engineered cells towards various short chain fatty acids. Various short chain fatty acids were added in the growth medium (i.e. Terrific broth + 45 mM glycerol) of E. coli MG1655 carrying control or the test plasmid and their conversion to the corresponding alcohol were monitored through HPLC or GC.Back to article page
