Sentence examples for nutrient substrate from inspiring English sources
An innovative anoxic/oxic (A/O) constructed wetlands (CWs) system was applied to remove the nutrient substrate in wastewater, and mathematical modeling for organic degradation, nitrification and denitrification in this system was then developed.
At time zero, there are no bacteria in the dishes, but each dish contains identical amounts of a nutrient substrate, glucose.
Energy is sourced from an electrochemical gradient coupling movement of nutrient substrate to translocation of ions.
Where channels are wider there is some incentive to travel on the nutrient substrate to the source of activation, despite this meaning a less direct route.
Symporters, or secondary-active transporters, can move a specific nutrient substrate against its concentration gradient in an energy requiring transport process.
Both nutrient substrates were polysaccharide-based, while the one that contained PBD was more easily absorbed by the mycelium due to its higher concentration in simple sugars.
The possibility of tailoring mycelium materials' properties by properly choosing their nutrient substrates paves the way for their use in various scale applications.
The nutrient substrates chosen for this work are biopolymers from pure cellulose and cellulose-potato dextrose broth (PDB) developed using a method already published by our group42.
The most promising result of the present work is that the developed natural composite mycelium materials present tunable and very well controlled structural and mechanical properties, achieved by exploiting different nutrient substrates for the hyphae growth, hence proving that the properties of the mycelium-materials are closely related to their nutrient substrates.
Peptone derived peptides acted as emulsifiers and at the same time as nutrient substrates and osmoprotectants for cells.
The developed mycelium-materials are natural polymeric composites (chitin, cellulose, proteins, etc). that require minimum energy for production (self-growing), and their characteristics can be tuned by modifying their nutrient substrates.
