Effect of [AMIM]Cl on BC production
G. xylinus was cultured in medium consisting of (w/v) 2.5% glucose, 0.5% yeast extract, and 0.3% peptone.
The initial pH of the medium was 5.0
Additions of 0.005, 0.01, 0.05, 0.1 or 0.5 g of [AMIM]Cl to 100 mL of the glucose- based culture medium were made to investigate the effects of the presence of IL.
The cultures were placed at 30 C in a static incubator for 7–14 days
