Effect of deoxynivalenol concentrations on the growth and de-epoxidation activity of DX100 microbial consortium. a: Microbial cell density (OD600nm) in MSB with different DON concentrations measured at 24, 36, 48, 60, 72 and 96 h. b: Microbial cell growth (OD600nm) in NB with different DON concentrations, measured at 24, 48, 72 and 96 h. c: Temporal DON de-epoxidation activity of DX100 in MSB containing 20, 200 and 500 μg/mL DON. The relative activity was measured by quantifying de-epoxidation activity divided by microbial growth (OD600nm value) at different time points. Results are the mean of three replicate observations, and bars shown are ± standard errors of the means. The averages ± standard errors for three treatments and the control are presented in the graph. MSB = broth containing six mineral salts + 0.5% Bacto Peptone, DON = deoxynivalenol, and NB = nutrient broth
