Abstract
Oxidation of glucose to 2,5-diketogluconic acid by Erwinia herbicola w as inhibited at 100% dissolved 0, tension (DOT) relative to air at 1 a tm. Gluconic acid accumulation, however, increased under this conditio n. The negative influence of the high DOT is attributed to a 10-fold d ecrease in 2-ketogluconate dehydrogenase activity.
