| Method |
Because some 14%(w/w) of cell dry weight is nitrogen (can be calculated from BNID 101800) and there is some 2ml cytoplasm/g dry weight (BNID 100044), a specific growth rate of 1.0h^-1 requires an N assimilation flux of 0.14[gN/gDW]×1.0[1/3,600sec]/14[gN/molN]/2[ml/gDW]˜1.4µmole/(ml×s)=1.4mmole/(liter×s) (primary source) |
