Figure 4

Kinetic analyses of n- dodecane degradation in R. erytropolis AP (pTipQT1- alk R7) recombinant strain (square in the graph). Cells of the recombinant strain were grown on rich medium and then, after induction with thiostrepton, were collected and exposed to n- dodecane. For comparison, kinetics of n- dodecane degradation in R. erytropolis AP (triangle in the graph) without the cloned fragment expressing the alk B gene, is also showed.
