Clostridium ljungdahlii as a biocatalyst in microbial electrosynthesis – Effect of culture conditions on product formation

Bioresource Technology Reports, 2022
Microbial electrosynthesis enables the production of value-added chemicals from CO2 and electrons provided by an electrode. Clostridium ljungdahlii is an electroactive acetogen that potentially could be used in microbial electrosynthesis systems. However, the optimal operational parameters for microbial electrosynthesis using C.

Characterizing acetogenic metabolism using a genome-scale metabolic reconstruction of Clostridium ljungdahlii. [PDF]

Microb Cell Fact, 2013
Abstract Background The metabolic capabilities of acetogens to ferment a wide range of sugars, to grow autotrophically on H2/CO2, and more importantly on synthesis gas (H2/CO/CO2) make them very attractive candidates as production hosts for biofuels and biocommodities.

DNA transfer between two different species mediated by heterologous cell fusion in Clostridium coculture

mBio
Prokaryotic evolution is driven by random mutations and horizontal gene transfer (HGT). HGT occurs via transformation, transduction, or conjugation. We have previously shown that in syntrophic cocultures of Clostridium acetobutylicum and Clostridium ...

CO2 fixation by anaerobic non-photosynthetic mixotrophy for improved carbon conversion

Nature Communications, 2016
Microbial fermentation yield is limited by CO2 loss in glycolysis. Here, the authors engineered Clostridium ljungdahlii for the anaerobic, non-photosynthetic mixotrophy production of acetone, increasing carbon product yield while reducing CO2emissions ...

Effectively Converting Cane Molasses into 2,3-Butanediol Using Clostridiumljungdahlii by an Integrated Fermentation and Membrane Separation Process

Molecules, 2022
Firstly, 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BDO) is a chemical platform used in several applications. However, the pathogenic nature of its producers and the expensive feedstocks used limit its scale production.

Clostridia as Promising Biofactory for Heterotrophic (Fructose) and Autotrophic (C1-Gas) Fermentation

Fermentation
This study compared the performance of Clostridium ljungdahlii and Clostridium aceticum in the fermentation of fructose and C1-gasses (CO, CO2, N2) to produce valuable products such as ethanol and acetic acid. In heterotrophic fermentation (fructose), C.

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

Frontiers 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)

Evaluation of Media Components and Process Parameters in a Sensitive and Robust Fed-Batch Syngas Fermentation System with Clostridium ljungdahlii

Fermentation, 2020
The fermentation of synthesis gas, or syngas, by acetogenic bacteria can help in transitioning from a fossil-fuel-based to a renewable bioeconomy. The main fermentation products of Clostridium ljungdahlii, one of such microorganisms, are acetate and ...
