• Microbial ecosystems
• Ecological interactions
• competition, syntrophy,
• predation, energy flow

Citric acid (C6H8O7): both electron donor for energy production
and for biomass synthesis.
YG = d/6a (mol C/mol C)Here:
Growth yield:new biomass produced

Catabolic energy production = growth + dissipation + maintenance

Anabolic Energy Demand
Anabolism (ANA):
carbon source + nutrients (N, P, …) + energy � 1 C-mol biomass
Catabolism (CAT):
electron donor + electron acceptor � products + energy
Metabolic reaction (MET): MET = ANA + λcat•CAT
number of times the catabolic reaction must proceed
in order to build 1 C-mol biomass
λcat:
λcat is directly related to the growth yield!
