En stor del inom utvecklingen av nya produkter är test och validering. Denna process kräver användning av dyra och stora testsystem. På grund av dessa faktorer är det viktigt att maximera användningen av dessa testsystem. Till följd av detta har ett övervakningssystem utvecklats av test- och validerings-avdelningen på BorgWarner i Landskrona som kan läsa driftstatus (Till exempel på och av) av visA large part of developing products is the testing and validation of the new products. This process requires expensive test systems and a great deal of time and space. Because of these factors it is very important to maximize the usage of the test systems.

Under anaerobic condition the specific growth rate of Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 on different sugars, was analyzed using spectrophotometry. Electron acceptor (fructose) supported cells to cope with poor energy recovery by re-oxidising the NADH, thus enabling ATP formation thru acetate production, while fermenting glucose via the phosphoketolase pathway (PKP) and simultaneously operating via E
