Equations and calculations for fermentations of butyric acid bacteria
@article{Papoutsakis1984EquationsAC, title={Equations and calculations for fermentations of butyric acid bacteria}, author={E. Papoutsakis}, journal={Biotechnology and Bioengineering}, year={1984}, volume={26} }
A stoichiometric equation has been derived which describes the interrelations among the various products and biomass in fermentations of butyric acid bacteria. The derivation of the equation is based on an assumed ATP yield, two biological regularities, and the biochemistry of product formation of the fermentations. The equation obeys the constraints imposed on growth and product formation by thermodynamics and the biochemical topology. The validity of the equation is tested using a variety of… Expand
