Effect of Endogenous and Exogenous Butyric Acid on Butanol Production From CO by Enriched Clostridia
Butanol is a potential renewable fuel. To increase the selectivity for butanol during CO fermentation, exogenous acetic acid and ethanol, exogenous butyric acid or endogenous butyric acid from glucose fermentation have been investigated using CO as ...

Molecular characterization of the missing electron pathways for butanol synthesis in Clostridium acetobutylicum [PDF]
Clostridium acetobutylicum is a promising biocatalyst for the renewable production of n-butanol. Several metabolic strategies have already been developed to increase butanol yields, most often based on carbon pathway redirection.

A Simplified Method for Butanol-Extractable Iodine and Butanol-Insoluble Iodine
Abstract A simplified method is presented for the determination of butanol-extractable iodine(BEI). The results compare favorably with the original method as described by Man et al. Also available, as part of the procedure for BEI, is a direct chemical determination for butanol-insoluble iodine (Bll) from the same specimen of serum ...
