LITERATURE
activity is detected between 72 and 168 h of incubation, and it reaches the maximum value when the absorbance of the culture is around 0.47 (at 600 nm). This maximum activity value is observed shortly after the beginning of the exponential phase of growth, and in that moment, high nitrite concentration within the media is quantified (up to 18.8 mM). This growth phase is characterised by oxygen depletion (culture medium is initially aerobic, but it becomes microaerobic as soon as the biomass increases shortly before the stationary phase of growth)
