Enterococcus faecalis grows on ascorbic acid.

Ibrahim Mehmeti1, Margrete Solheim, Ingolf F Nes, Helge Holo.   

Abstract

We show that Enterococcus faecalis can utilize ascorbate for fermentative growth. In chemically defined media, growth yield was limited by the supply of amino acids, and the cells showed a much higher demand for amino acids than when they were grown on glucose.
