C. Sasikala et Cv. Ramana, GROWTH AND H-2 PRODUCTION BY SYNECHOCOCCUS SPP USING ORGANIC INORGANIC ELECTRON-DONORS/, World journal of microbiology & biotechnology, 10(5), 1994, pp. 531-533
Growth with simultaneous photoproduction of H-2 was obtained on variou
s organic and inorganic compounds using axenic cultures of the oxygeni
c phototrophic bacteria synechococcus sp. OU 103 and S. cedrorum. High
est H-2 production occurred with restign cells of S. cedrorum on malat
e (11.8 mmol H-2/vessel), whereas Synechococcus sp. OU 103 preferred s
ulphide (10.3 mmol H-2/vessel) as electron donor.
