Original Abstract

The strain Clostridium pasteurianum NRRL B-598 can be considered both butanol and hydrogen producer but also a little known and poorly described solventogenic Clostridium. The strain can utilize different saccharides like glucose, xylose, arabinose, cellobiose, saccharose, lactose and starch during acetone-butanol (AB) fermentation which is coupled with sporulation. After germination of spores, young cells exhibit significant motility and prior the sporulation, stock polysaccharide, granulose is formed in considerable amount giving the cells a typical Clostridium-like (drum stick) shape. Moreover, the strain boasts oxygen tolerance, low tendency to degeneration during long-term continuous experiments and robustness regarding small cultivation changes.
