Fig. 4From: Renewable synthesis of n-butyraldehyde from glucose by engineered Escherichia coli n-Butyraldehyde production using two-phase extraction for in situ product removal. a Cell growth in media with extractant dodecane and oleyl alcohol overlay. b Total n-butyraldehyde titer using different extractants. c n-Butyryaldehyde distribution in the culture media (water phase) and extractant (organic phase) for the 48-h samples. The ratio of extractant to TB is defined as the volume of extractant added divided by the 20 mL of culture (TB with 2% glucose). Error bars represent the standard deviation of triplicated experimentsBack to article page
