Growth kinetics in three media composed of industrial by-products and in reference medium
The growth kinetics of strain GP139 in the four media
are shown in figure 2. The fermentation process can be
divided into three distinct phases, each with welldefined
characteristics: phase I, which is when vegetative
growth occurs; phase II, which is when the transition
to sporulation occurs; and phase III, which is when
spores mature and cells lyse
