Does anyone know if there is a database of known yield coefficients of microbial growth on different substrates?. Lets say for example, of the yield coefficient of yeast growth on glucose.
Please check the following publication to find some informations:
-MediaDB: A Database of Microbial Growth Conditions in Defined Media. Matthew A. Richards et al. PLoS One. 2014; 9(8): e103548. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4123892/
Abstract: Isolating pure microbial cultures and cultivating them in the laboratory on defined media is used to more fully characterize the metabolism and physiology of organisms. However, identifying an appropriate growth medium for a novel isolate remains a challenging task.
