), using the commercial kit LCK 304 (Hach Lange®, Germany). At the end of each cycle total nitrogen (TN) determination was performed, using the commercial kits LCK 338 (Hach Lange®, Germany). Biomass concentration was measured as total suspended nitrogen (TSN), using the commercial kit LCK 304 (Hach Lange®, Germany).
Chemical oxygen demand (COD), nitrite and nitrate concentrations were determined using the commercial kit LCK 914, LCK 342 and LCK 339, respectively (Hach Lange®, Germany) .
The pH was manually controlled and measured by using a benchtop metre inoLabVR pH 7110 (WTW, Weilheim, Germany). The adjustment was performed by adding hydrochloric acid (HCl) with a syringe to the bioreactor until reaching the optimal pH.

All the samples were chemically characterized in terms of pH, TS, VS, carboxylic acids content and COD. TS and VS were analyzed according to standard methods (APHA, 2005) .
COD was determined by spectrophotometric analysis using the kits LCK 514 and LCK 914 (Hach-Lange). The concentration of total carboxylic acids and ethanol was determined using a gas chromatograph (Shimadzu GC-2010 Plus) equipped with an Agilent 19095F-123 capillary column (30 m length and 0.53 mm i.d.) followed by a flame ionization detector (FID). The carrier gas was nitrogen at 30 ml/min. The temperatures of the injector and the detector were 240 and 240 °C, respectively. Lactic acid concentration was analyzed by HPLC on a Dionex Ultimate 3000-LC system with an Aminex HPX-87H column coupled to a refractive index detector (RID). As mobile phase H2SO4 (4 mmol/l) was used. Methane and hydrogen production was analyzed using a gas chromatograph (SRI GC model 310) equipped with a Porapak Q column (182.88 cm length and 2.1 mm i.d.) followed by thermal conductivity detector (TCD). Nitrogen was used as carrier gas.

Optical density at 600 nm wavelength (OD 600 ) was used to monitor the increase in turbidity of pre-cultures, which is assumed to be correspondent to biomass growth only in balanced growth conditions, in a medium containing no hydrophobic compounds (Kalscheuer et al., 2007) (link).
Biomass concentration, as total suspended nitrogen (TSN), was determined using cuvette test LCK238, and the ammonium (NH 4 þ ) depletion was followed by cuvette test LCK 303 (Hach Lange ® , Germany).
COD, TN, nitrates, nitrites were estimated using the commercial kits LCK 914, LCK 338, LCK 340, LCK 341, LCK 303 (Hach-Lange ® , Germany). All analyses were done in triplicate, following the procedures recommended in kits protocol.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
