Characteristics and Adaptability of Some New Isolates of Clostridium thermocellum.

J Bender1, Y Vatcharapijarn, T W Jeffries.   

Abstract

Six strains of Clostridium thermocellum isolated from various environments were characterized as to growth rate, production of reducing sugars, ethanol, and acetic acid from cellulose, base composition of DNA, and the abilities to adapt to ethanol and to grow at 45 degrees C. Five of the six new isolates produced 7 to 15% more ethanol and two produced about 45% more reducing sugars than a standard reference strain. One strain (MC-6) adapted more readily to growth in 2% ethanol than the others.
