Development of novel microbial synthetic consortia for the production of antimicrobial fermentates containing caproate [PDF]
Applied Microbiology and BiotechnologyShort- and medium chain carboxylic acids (SCCA/MCCA) are natural antimicrobials produced by fermentation and chain elongation, but currently only a few SCCA/MCCA are used in food-related applications.

Species-specific ribosomal RNA-FISH identifies interspecies cellular-material exchange, active-cell population dynamics and cellular localization of translation machinery in clostridial cultures and co-cultures [PDF]
mSystemsThe development of synthetic microbial consortia in recent years has revealed that complex interspecies interactions, notably the exchange of cytoplasmic material, exist even among organisms that originate from different ecological niches.

Butyric Acid and Caproic Acid Production Using Single and Mixed Bacterial Cultures
Engineering Proceedings, 2023 In this study, we explored different bacterial strains (Clostridium beijerinckii, C. acetobutylicum, C. oryzae, and C. kainantoi) belonging to the Clostridium group and produced butyric acid (C4) using acetate as a carbon source. All the strains produced
