In the study done by Zhang et al . ( 2009 ), the ?D values of fatty acids in Thakassiosira pseudonana chemostat cultures were-197.30,-211.20 and-208.00 for C14, C16 and C18 fatty acids respectively.
12.
However, since the concentration of the limiting nutrient in the chemostat cannot exceed the concentration in the feed, the specific growth rate that the cells can reach in the chemostat is usually slightly lower than the maximal specific growth rate because specific growth rate usually increases with nutrient concentration as described by the kinetics of the Monod equation.
