Thermoanaerobacterium thermosaccharolyticum

Besides Clostridium sphenoides, the organism Clostridium thermosaccharolyticum (now called Thermoanaerobacterium thermosaccharolyticum ) also produces R-1,2-PD and acetol firom glucose. Other products made include acetate, ethanol, and lactate. In a fed-batch fermentation, the yield of 1,2-PD on glucose was 0.27 g/g at 30.7 h. The maximum titer reached was 7.9 g/1. In contrast to C. sphenoides, the C. thermosaccharolyticum...
