  1. Production of HA and chondroitin were analysed in the presence of inducer (nisin) alone or in combination with either GalNAc or phosphatidylcholine. Experiments lasted 18 h. Biomass and polymer concentrations indicated in the table were determined after 18 h of growth
  2. nd not detectable
  3. aPercentage of intracellular polymer on the total produced of each type (HA or chondroitin)
