Characterization of cell growth, substrate utilization, end-product synthesis and gene expression patterns in cellulose degrading co-cultures of Clostridium termitidis CT1112 and Clostridium intestinale URNW

Co-cultures of selected fermentative bacteria have been shown to improve rates of substrate conversion and yields of some fermentation end-products. We have tested this hypothesis using a co-culture of the mesophilic, cellulolytic bacterium Clostridium termitidis CT1112 and the mesophilic, saccharop...
