In contrast, as shown in Table 4, the maximum growth rate
of P. fluorescens increases with temperature as analogy with
Arrhenius model employed in kinetic analysis (Choma et al.,
2000; Fujikawa et al., 2004). The logarithm of the maximal
specific growth rate of P. fluorescens was plotted against the
reciprocal of the absolute temperature to obtain its Arrhenius
plot over the temperature growth range from 25 ◦C to 35 ◦C.
When the Arrhenius law was fitted to experimental data, it was
obtained a temperature characteristic (Ea) of 115.64 kJ mol−1
with a correlation coefficient of 0.997
