cff-version: 1.2.0 abstract: "Chain elongation reactor microbiomes produce valuable medium-chain carboxylates (MCC) from non-sterile residual substrates where lactate is a relevant intermediate. Gas supply has been shown to impact chain elongation performance. In the present study, the effect of nitrogen gas (N<sub>2</sub>) supply on lactate metabolism, conversion rates, biomass growth and microbiome composition was evaluated in a lactate-fed upflow anaerobic reactor with continuous or intermittent N<sub>2</sub> gas supply." authors: - family-names: Data Librarian given-names: WUR - family-names: Ali given-names: Arielle - family-names: Buisman given-names: C.J.N.
