Abstract
Pseudomonoas dentrificans pre-cultured (revived from agar plates) under var ying conditions (nitrate absent or present: dissolved oxygen absent or pres ent) was subsequently grown aerobically with or without nitrate present. an d finally exposed to anoxic conditions (i.e., aeration slopped and dissolve d oxygen stripped from solution). The occurrence and length of diauxic lags following transition from aerobic to anoxic conditions were affected stron gly by the nitrate and oxygen exposure history of the biomass.
