Method Metabolic network analysis was performed by combining labeling experiments with mathematical modelling (Christensen et al., 2000 PMID 10592531)
Comments In this way, it was possible to compare cells growing in a chemostat at steady state, with a speci?c growth rate of 0.1h^-1, with cells growing in a batch cultivation, with µmax=0.37h^-1, in a quantitative fashion.
