Application

Application Comment Organism
biofuel production proteome analysis as well as enzyme assays performed in cell-free extracts demonstrates that glycerol is degraded via glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, which is further metabolized through the lower part of glycolysis leading to formation of mainly ethanol and hydrogen. Fermentation of glycerol to ethanol and hydrogen by this bacterium represents a remarkable option to add value to the biodiesel industries by utilization of surplus glycerol Anaerobium acetethylicum
