Spontaneous large-scale autolysis in Clostridium acetobutylicum contributes to generation of more spores

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Autolysis is a widespread phenomenon in bacteria. In batch fermentation of Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824, there is a spontaneous large-scale autolysis phenomenon with significant decrease of cell density immediately after exponential phase.

Effects of butanol on Clostridium acetobutylicum [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1985
The internal pH of Clostridium acetobutylicum was determined at various stages during the growth of the organism. Even in the presence of significant quantities of acetic, butyric, and lactic acids, an internal pH of 6.2 was maintained. Experiments using N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide indicated that a functioning H+-ATPase is necessary for internal pH ...

The potential of caproate (hexanoate) production using Clostridium kluyveri syntrophic cocultures with Clostridium acetobutylicum or Clostridium saccharolyticum

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Caproate (hexanoate) and other medium-chain fatty acids are valuable platform chemicals produced by processes utilizing petroleum or plant oil. Clostridium kluyveri, growing on short chain alcohols (notably ethanol) and carboxylic acids (such as acetate)

Autolysis of Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1992
The optimum conditions for autolysis of Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824 were determined. Autolysis was optimal at pH 6.3 and 55 degrees C in 0.1 M-sodium acetate/phosphate buffer. The ability of cells to autolyse decreased sharply at the end of the exponential phase of growth.

Apple pomace as an alternative substrate for butanol production

open access: yesAMB Express, 2023
Butanol-producing strains Clostridium sp. UCM B-7570 and C. acetobutylicum UCM B-7407 were used for research from “Collection of strains of microorganisms and plant lines for food and agricultural biotechnology” of the Institute of Food Biotechnology and

Modeling Growth Kinetics, Interspecies Cell Fusion, and Metabolism of a Clostridium acetobutylicum/Clostridium ljungdahlii Syntrophic Coculture

open access: yesmSystems, 2021
Clostridium acetobutylicum and Clostridium ljungdahlii grown in a syntrophic culture were recently shown to fuse membranes and exchange cytosolic contents, yielding hybrid cells with significant shifts in gene expression and growth phenotypes.

Oxygen and the Growth and Metabolism of Clostridium acetobutylicum [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1971
Summary: Clostridium acetobutylicum has been studied during batch cultivation at pH 7 and 35° in a glucose + casein hydrolysate + vitamins and salts medium kept (i) anaerobic (E h, – 400 to – 370 mV), (ii) aerated (E h, – 50 to 0 mV; dissolved O2, < 1 μM), and (iii) aerobic (E h, + 100 mV; dissolved O2, 40 to 50 μM).
