Effect of the steam-exploded wheat straw hydrolysate on the growth of B. coagulans MA-13. a Average growth curves in Bioscreen media containing different concentrations of hydrolysate (Additional file 1: Table S1). b Maximum specific growth rates (ÎĽ max) expressed as percentage (%) relative to the rate in the absence of hydrolysate (0%). Error bars show the deviation between duplicate experiments
