Abstract:Thiocapsa roseopersicina strain 6311 grew phototrophically in a mineral medium containing fructose as sole electron donor and carbon source with a doubling time of 11--13 h, provided the mineral medium contained vitamine B12 (50 ng/ml), not more than 20 mM phosphate, and the culture was preincubated in the dark for 24 h. In fructose-grown cells but not in autotrophically grown cells, the cell-protein content was strongly reduced when vitamine B12 was growth limiting, while the carbohydrate content was increase… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
