Dynamic Metabolic Flux Analysis Demonstrated on Cultures Where the Limiting Substrate Is Changed from Carbon to Nitrogen and Vice Versa

Figure 5

Fluxes in mol/L/h of the biomass production. Open symbols are the values as derived from the polynomials with formula 4; closed symbols are values obtained after flux balancing (top). The growth rate in 1/h of the cells during the transients (bottom). Left: C -limitation to N -limitation; right: N -limitation to C -limitation. The first point left of each figure is the steady state value before the medium switch. The last point right on each figure is the steady state value after at least 50 hours. Error bars represent the standard deviations.
