Growth Condition
Strains Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1
Genotype
Culture medium Starter cultures were grown in complex LB medium containing 5 g/L yeast extract, 10 g/L peptone and 10g/L NaCl. For the second and main cultures, a minimal medium developed during the study ensured balanced growth of all strains, an importantprerequisite for the13C-flux approach. The osmolality of this medium was 500 mosmol/kg, which reflects that ofhuman urine. The medium contained the following (per liter): 2.5 g glucose, 13.0 g KH2PO4-2H2O, 20.6 g K2HPO4, 0.49 g MgSO4-7H2O, 2.5 g NH4Cl, 1.41 g Na2SO4, 0.085 g CaCl2-2H2O, 1.2 mg FeSO4-7H2O, and 25 mg 3,4-dihydroxybenzoate. For 13C-flux experiments, naturally labeled glucose was replaced with 99% [1-13C] glucose.

Growth rate
Case-specific description In vivo carbon flux distribution in the central metabolism of uropathogenic P.aeruginosa isolates during growth on glucose.Flux is given as average flux of all strains and is expressed as a molar percentage of the average glucose uptake rate of all strains (8.6 mmol/g/h).(Uropathogenic P.aeruginosa isolates from patients with direct urinary tract infections included the strains MH06u, MH09u, RN12u, RN13u, MH16u, MH17u, MH26u, and MH29u.Isolates from patients with catheter-associated urinary tract infectionsincluded the strains MH15c, MH25c, MH33c, MH34c, MH36c,MH37c, MH39c, MH56c, and MH57c.)
