  1. aAll possible combinations of rotary evaporation (RE); overliming (OL), and activated carbon treatments (AC) were performed
  2. bDetermined by Dörsam et al. [19] as % (w/v). The concentration was converted into g/L assuming the density of water [2]. The only exception was acetate, for which, according to the results of Kövilein et al. [42], no growth limit was determined so far
