Abstract excerpt
Escherichia coli molecular hydrogen (H(2)) production was studied during mixed carbon (glucose and glycerol) fermentation at pH 6.5. Wild type cells in the assays supplemented with glucose produced H(2) at ~2 fold lower level than cells grown on glucose only. When compared to the wild type, H(2) production in the assays added with glucose was decreased by ~2 fold in fhlA, hyfG and double fhlA hyfG mutants and by...
