Table 2 A, 7-L lab-scale fermentation; B, 50-L pilot-scale fermentation; Pf, maximum MA production; Xf, maximum dry cell weight; Sf, final residual glucose concentration; Qp, average volumetric MA production rate; qp, average specific MA production rate; Yp/x, specific MA production; Yp/s, MA production yield based on glucose; Yx/s, DCW yield based on glucose. The data represent the mean (±standard deviation) of two independent experiments.
