Growth Response of Lactobacillus brevis to Aeration and Organic Catalysts.
Under stationary and anaerobic conditions, greater cell yields of Lactobacillus brevis were obtained from autoclaved than from filter-sterilized glucose media. Fructose, tentatively identified as a product generated by the heating process, served as an excellent catalyst for inducing growth. The addition of micromolar quantities of pentoses or potential pentose precursors to the filter-steriliz...
متن کامل1,3-Propanediol:NAD+ oxidoreductases of Lactobacillus brevis and Lactobacillus buchneri.
In the cofermentation of glycerol with a sugar by Lactobacillus brevis and Lactobacillus buchneri, a 1,3-propanediol:NAD+ oxidoreductase provides an additional method of NADH disposal. The enzyme has been purified from both L. brevis B22 and L. buchneri B190 and found to have properties very similar to those reported for the enzyme from Klebsiella pneumoniae. The enzymes required Mn2+ and are p...
متن کاملPyruvate metabolism in Lactobacillus brevis.
The pyruvate metabolism of LactobaciUus plantarum and Latobacillus arabino8su, which according to Bergey (1948) are identical organisms, has been studied by Rowatt (1951) and Nossal (1952). Both these homofermentative lactobacilli were shown to form 3-hydroxybutan-2-one (acetoin) as the main product of their pyruvate metabolism. No one appears to have studied the metabolism of pyruvate by any o...
متن کاملMembrane-bound ATPase contributes to hop resistance of Lactobacillus brevis.
The activity of the membrane-bound H+-ATPase of the beer spoilage bacterium Lactobacillus brevis ABBC45 increased upon adaptation to bacteriostatic hop compounds. The ATPase activity was optimal around pH 5.6 and increased up to fourfold when L. brevis was exposed to 666 microM hop compounds. The extent of activation depended on the concentration of hop compounds and was maximal at the highest ...
متن کاملFermentation of glucuronic acid by Lactobacillus brevis.
Certain heterofermentative lactic acid bacteria often encountered in food and beverage fermentations are able to utilize the uronic acids as a sole carbon source for energy (J. R. Stamer and B. O. Stoyla, Bacteriol. Proc., p. 1, 1967). Although the mechanisms of uronic acid degradation by gram-negative or phytopathogenic microorganisms have been extensively studied (W. J. Payne and R. A. McRori...
