From: Identification of furfural resistant strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomyces paradoxus from a collection of environmental and industrial isolates

Figure 3

Growth curves of Saccharomyces strains grown in yeast nutrient broth containing 100 mM glucose and furfural. Data shown are the average of three replicate experiments. (A) S. cerevisiae NCYC 2826, (B) S. paradoxus NCYC 3277, (C) S. cerevisiae NCYC 3312, (D) S. cerevisiae NCYC 3290, (E) S. cerevisiae NCYC 3284 and (F) S. cerevisiae NCYC 3451. Media was supplemented with furfural at concentrations of 0.1 (squares), 0.5 (circles), 1.0 (triangles), 1.5 (diamonds), 2.0 (open squares), 2.5 (open circles), 3.0 (diamonds), 3.5 (open triangles) and 4.0 mg ml−1 furfural (crosses). OD, optical density; hr, hour.
