Enhanced eicosapentaenoic acid production by a new deep-sea marine bacterium Shewanella electrodiphila MAR441^T - Fig 2

(A) Time period of cell growth (filled circles) and quantitative yield of whole cell TFAs and EPA in strain MAR441^T grown in marine broth medium at 15°C during the time period. Total fatty acids (TFAs, filled boxes); eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, open circles); quantitative yield of biomass (open boxes). (B) Change in average chain length (ACL, open diamonds) and relative proportion of whole cell FAs in strain MAR441^T grown in marine broth medium at 15°C during the time period. Straight chain fatty acids (SCFAs, filled circles), branched chain fatty acids (BCFAs, filled boxes), monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs, open boxes); eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, open circles). The experiments were carried out in triplicate and values are means of three samples based on S1 Table.
