Article Synopsis
- The study addresses challenges in measuring cell growth in cyanobacteria due to issues like self-shading and uneven CO levels in traditional photobioreactors.
- A new microfluidic platform allows for precise monitoring of cyanobacterial growth, providing uniform light and accurate CO supply at the single-cell level.
- The research demonstrated that under controlled conditions, cyanobacterial growth is stable with synchronized cell division, but growth ceases quickly in darkness and is limited by low CO levels.
Carboxylic acid consumption and production by Corynebacterium glutamicum.

Corynebacterium glutamicum is well-known as an industrial workhorse, most notably for its use in the bulk production of amino acids in the feed and food sector. Previous studies of the effect of gradients in scale-down reactors with complex media disclosed an accumulation of several carboxylic acids and a parallel decrease of growth and product accumulation. This study, therefore, addresses the impact of carboxylic acids, for example, acetate and l-lactate, on the cultivation of the cadaverine producing strain C.
