| Method |
"[Researchers] assessed pHc in growing yeast cultures under batch
conditions to reveal that pHc is not constant during
growth. pHc was neutral in the beginning of the exponential
growth phase, and then gradually dropped approximately
0.3 pH units in mid-to late exponential phase,
before glucose was depleted. Upon glucose depletion pHc
decreased to 5.5 (Figure 1a)." |
| Comments |
"[Researchers] determined that the gradual reduction of pHc [cytosolic pH] from 7 to 6.7 during growth of the
culture was a response to changes in the cellular environment,
rather than a property of the cultured cells themselves:
[researchers] took cell and culture supernatant samples from
the beginning of the growth phase (where pHc was 7.0 and
the specific growth rate 0.48 h^-1) and at the end of the
growth phase, just prior to glucose depletion, when the
pHc and growth rate were decreased." equivalent to doubling time of 1.44 hours |
