Elevated 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde production from glycerol using a Citrobacter freundii mutant.

Abstract excerpt

A mutant strain of Citrobacter freundii capable of elevated 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde production from glycerol was isolated using chemical mutagenesis and a screening protocol. The protocol involved screening mutagenized bacterial cells on solid minimal medium containing 5 % (v/v) glycerol. Colonies were picked onto duplicate solid minimal medium plates and one plate was stained with 1 % (w/v) phloroglucinol....
