24-h substrate and end product analysis. T. pseudethanolicus was grown at 65°C with 40 mM glucose and increasing concentrations of (A) furfural or (B) 5-HMF for 24 h. Culture supernatants were analyzed for glucose and end product formation by HPLC. Glucose consumption was determined by comparison with an uninoculated control. Error bars are the standard deviation of three replicate cultures.
