Time course of TAG production as fatty acids from glycerol by R. opacus MITGM-173. Performed under the optimized conditions. The strain was grown in a modified defined medium containing 96 g L−1 glucose and 6.55 g L−1 (NH4)2SO4 in bioreactors. Values and error bars represent the mean and s.d. of triplicate experiments.
