  1. The yield coefficients for biomass, ethanol, glycerol, pyruvate and acetate were determined in the exponential growth phase from linear regression of their concentration as a function of the residual glucose concentration. Succinate yield was calculated at a fermentation end-point. Ysx: grams of biomass per g of glucose consumed. Yssuc: grams of succinate per g of glucose consumed. Yse: grams of ethanol per g of glucose consumed. Ysac: grams of acetate per g of glucose consumed. Ysg: grams of glycerol per g of glucose consumed. Yspyr: grams of pyruvate per g of glucose consumed. μmax : maximum specific growth rate in h-1. TA: trace amount.
