Comparison of ectoine production according to cell growth. Methylomicrobium alcaliphilum 20ZDP2 was cultured in medium containing 6% NaCl and 0.05 μM tungsten and sampled each time as the OD600 value increased (OD 1–9). All experiments were performed in triplicate and the range of the raw data was within ± 5% of the average
