Abstract:Growing interest in renewable energy continues to motivate new work on microbial biohydrogen production and in particular utilizing Escherichia coli a well-studied, facultative anaerobe. Here we characterize, for the first time the H 2 production rate and capacity, of E coli isolates from the 50 000th generation of the Long-Term Evolution Experiment. Under these reaction conditions, peak production rates near or above 5 mL per hour for 100 mL of lysogeny broth (LB media) was established for the ancestral strai… Show more
