Physiological Constants of the Entomopathogenic Bacterium Xenorhabdus nematophila Determined by Microbial Growth Kinetics
Figure 3
Eadie-Hofstee linearization plot to calculate the physiological constants and . By plotting μ as a function of , the resulting slope is equivalent to the negative value of ; therefore, the glucose value for X. nematophila is reported to be 2.02 mg/L. According to (2), is defined as the -intercept; therefore, for X. nematophila was calculated to be 1.03 h−1.
