Summary of BglA optimization in different media (LB, TB, and M9NG) with IPTG and lactose as inducers.

Expression inducer	Growth medium	Max OD600	BglA % in TCP	BglA mg/ml
IPTG	LB	3.69	50	0.6
	TB	5.49	70	0.7
	M9NG	3.47	40	0.5
Lactose	LB	6.56	50	1.5
	TB	16.46	70	2.0
	M9NG	15.18	70	2.2

Note. TCP: total cell protein. Concentration determined through relative densitometry.
