P. pastoris growth profile in the presence of different inhibitors. a growth curves of: acetic acid (2 g.L⁻¹—closed triangle, and 6 g.L⁻¹ open triangle), furaldehydes (0.15 g.L⁻¹ HMF, 0.9 g.L⁻¹ furfural—closed diamond and 0.25 g.L⁻¹ HMF, 1.5 g.L⁻¹ furfural—open diamond), and hydrolysate (10%—closed square, and hydrolysate 30% open square) against control (closed circle with dotted lines). b substrate consumption and product formation in different conditions: control, acetic acid 2 g.L⁻¹, acetic acid 6 g.L⁻¹, FH 0.9/ 0.15 g.L⁻¹, FH 1.5/ 0.25 g.L⁻¹, hydrolysate 10%, hydrolysate 30%. Biomass (OD600, black circle), glucose (pink diamond), acetic acid (blue square), glycerol (green triangle), ethanol (gray upside-down triangle), furfural (yellow star), HMF (orange cross). Timepoint 4* highlights the timepoint where samples were taken. Xylose concentration was constant through the cultivation. The experiments were performed in triplicate and the figure represents the profile of one replicate
