Fig. 5From: Photoautotrophic production of polyhydroxyalkanoates in a synthetic mixed culture of Synechococcus elongatus cscB and Pseudomonas putida cscAB Nitrate-limited co-cultivation of S. elongatus cscB and P. putida cscAB. Optical density, Nile red-stained cell count of P. putida cscAB and cell count of S. elongatus cscB are depicted over time in a. Sucrose, PHA and nitrate concentrations are plotted in b. Uncertainties in PHA concentrations were estimated from the propagation of errors of the PHA standards. Nitrate was fed at a constant rate of 46 ± 2 mg/day after inoculation with P. putida cscAB Back to article page
