Metabolic Role of the Br Factor in Butyribacterium Rettgeri.

Kline, Leo (University of California, Berkeley), L. Pine, and H. A. Barker. Metabolic role of the BR factor in Butyribacterium rettgeri. J. Bacteriol. 85:967-975. 1963.-The BR factor, which is replaceable by lipoic acid, was shown to be required for the decomposition of lactate by Butyribacterium rettgeri. Since the factor was not required for the fermentation of pyruvate or glucose by this org...

Butyribacterium rettgeri: a Role of Lipoic Acid in Anaerobic Electron Transport

Butyribacterium rettgeri is an anaerobic bacterium that ferments glucose, pyruvate, or lactate, with the formation of acetate, butyrate, and CO:, as the major end products (lactate may also be a major product of the fermentation of pyruvate or glucose). Extensive studies in the laboratory of Barker have shown two unusual features of these fermentations (l-8). The first is that the observed low ...

Application of anaerobic digestion products of municipal solid food wastes in treating wastewaters

Anaerobic digestion is the breakdown of biodegradable organic material by microorganisms in the absence of oxygen or in an oxygen-starved environment.This technology is superior to the landfilling and also the aerobic composting. The aim of the present study was to examine whether the effluent Volatile Fatty Acids from the anaerobic acidogenesis of the food waste can be used du to its high valu...

The utilization of butyric acid for the synthesis of cholesterol and fatty acids.

It has previously been found in this laboratory that in the biological synthesis of cholesterol the terminal methyl carbons of isovaleric acid are much more efficient carbon sources than the carboxyl carbons of the same compound and are also more effective sterol precursors than the carbon atoms of acetic acid (1). One explanation offered for these findings was that isovalerate is broken down t...

Exergy and Energy Analysis of Effective Utilization of Carbon Dioxide in the Gas-to-Methanol Process

Two process models are used to convert carbon dioxide into methanol. These processes have been extended and improved using Aspen Plus simulator software. Both processes are found in the CO2 correction system. In this machine, the desired synthesis gas is produced in a flexible configuration. At the same time, the conversion of CO2 to hydrogen via a copper-based catalyst ha...
