Fig. 3From: Expression of SOD and production of reactive oxygen species in Acinetobacter calcoaceticus caused by hydrocarbon oxidationIntensity of superoxide anion radical generation (measured with lucigenin-activated Š”L) upon incubation of oil-biodegrading microorganisms within 30Ā days in basic mineral salt medium with addition of yeast extract or various hydrocarbons as a carbon source: Control - yeast extract and tryptone; Diesel - diesel fuel. CL with other hydrocarbons was lower than the control and is not shown in the figure. a - A. calcoaceticus EMBM-06 b - A. calcoaceticus VKPM B-10353. Differences from the control for all the data sets are statistically significant (pā<ā0.05)Back to article page
