Extended Data Fig. 3: Cell growth and fucoidan secretion of Glossomastix in the semi-continuous culture.
From: Phosphate deprivation restricts bacterial degradation of the marine polysaccharide fucoidan

a, Cell density of Glossomastix in a semi-continuous growth and batch mode. b, Fucose yield of in the semi-continuous growth and batch mode. In the 1st batch culture, the starting inorganic phosphate concentration was 14 μM. In the 2nd, 3rd, 4th batch cultures and the semi-continuous growth, the actual phosphate concentrations were lower than the theoretical ones (7 μM, 3.5 μM, 1.75 μM and 0.875 μM respectively). The experiment was performed in independent triplicate (n = 3), error bars are the standard deviation of the mean.
