Dissimilation of Carbon Monoxide to Acetic Acid by Glucose-Limited Cultures of Clostridium thermoaceticum.
Clostridium thermoaceticum was cultivated in glucose-limited media, and the dissimilation of CO to acetic acid was evaluated. We found that cultures catalyzed the rapid dissimilation of CO to acetic acid and CO(2), with the stoichiometry obtained for conversion approximating that predicted from the following reaction: 4CO + 2H(2)O --> CH(3)CO(2)H + 2CO(2). Growing cultures formed approximately ...

متن کاملElucidation of Growth Inhibition and Acetic Acid Production by Clostridium thermoaceticum.
The production of acetic acid by Clostridium thermoaceticum was studied by using batch fermentations. In a pH-controlled fermentation with sodium hydroxide (pH 6.9), this organism was able to produce 56 g of acetic acid per liter. On the other hand, when the pH was not controlled and was decreased during fermentation to 5.4, the maximum attainable acetic acid concentration was only 15.3 g/liter...
متن کاملCarbon dioxide and acetate utilization by Clostridium kluyveri. II. Synthesis of amino acids.
The isolation and identification of labeled amino acids from the acid hydrolysates of cells of Clostridium kluyveri grown in synthetic medium containing ethanol, acetate, and CO* as carbon sources, and with Cl402 or acetate-l-Cl4 as labeled substrate, have been reported previously (28). Alanine, serine, glycine, threonine, and aspartic acid so obtained have been degraded to determine the positi...
متن کاملTracer Studies on the Role of Acetic Acid and Carbon Dioxide in the Fermentation of Lactate by Clostridium lacto-acetophilum.
In a previous study of the fermentation of lactate by Clostridium lacto-acetophilum (Bhat and Barker, 1947) it was shown that pure cultures of this organism can decompose lactate only when acetate is provided as a second substrate, whereas enrichment cultures of the same organism do not require added acetate. This difference in nutritional requirements indicated a corresponding difference in th...
