Metabolic energy conservation for fermentative product formation

Product inhibition of the fermentative formation of glutamic acid.

The addition of penicillin to cells of Corynebacterium glutamicum growing in 5-liter fermentors initiated the excretion of glutamic acid. The rate of glutamate production in fermentors declined continuously with time and reached 75% of the initial rate in 24 hr after penicillin had been added. The addition of glutamate to resting cell suspensions had only a slight effect on sugar utilization bu...

Energy Conservation in Building

The building sector accumulates approximately a third of the final energy consumption. Consequently, the improvement of the energy efficiency in buildings has become an essential instrument in the energy policies to ensure the energy supply in the mid to long term moreover is the most cost-effective strategy available for reducing carbon dioxide emissions This paper is studying the main objecti...

Energy conservation in fermentative glutarate degradation by the bacterial strain WoG13.

Dicarboxylic acids with 2-5 carbon atoms can be degraded fermentatively by pure cultures of various strictly anaerobic bacteria. The small amount of free energy released in these decarboxylations (about 20-25 kJ mol-1) is conserved as sole source of growth energy either through sodium-pumping decarboxylases or through electrogenic substrate/product transport devices. In the glutarate-fermenting...
