Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

Line 21, please make a space between the number and oC. Hours should be written as h. Check these errors throughout the manuscript.

Line 29, citation 16?

Highlight the novelty in the introduction section.

In each citation, authors wrote author et al. Please remove all places.

One abbreviation is defined many times please remove it. for ex: urinate dehydrogenase (Udh) this one used in line 83 and line 85 and other places also.

Write ml as m and μl as μL.

Line 248, figure is what? what is x and y-axis. Write in English.

The discussion section is too short. It is better to merge in the result section.

Each discussion needs to be improv critically. I don’t find any informative discussion.

 

English needs to be revised.

English is very difficult to understand/incomprehensible

Reviewer 2 Report

However, my main concerns are

In Fig 2.2 A&B, and Fig 3.3 are poorly labeled, making it difficult to know what is being presented.

Figure 3.6. gluconic acid can be detected in the fermentation fluid of recombinant strains y and x axis present in the different language in manuscript. Authors need to represent the results in text.

Figure 3.6. Footnotes are not given.

Section 4 Discussion change in to conclusion.

Authors are not following journal guidelines.

The results and discussion need to be presented in a clear manner, presenting a summary or results and their relation to the published literature. Please make tighter connections to the results obtained and the discussion.

The results explanation is very limited please clarify it in detail. Discussion only repeats the results, without any interpretation.

Discussion is missing, explain in more details.
