  • Title: Production of 1,3-propanediol by Klebsiella pneumoniae from glycerol broth.
    Author: Cheng KK, Zhang JA, Liu DH, Sun Y, Yang MD, Xu JM.
    Journal: Biotechnol Lett; 2006 Nov; 28(22):1817-21. PubMed ID: 16912919.
    Abstract:
    Broth containing 152 g glycerol l(-1) from Candida krusei culture was converted to 1,3-propanediol by Klebsiella pneumoniae. Residual glucose in the broth promoted growth of K. pneumoniae while acetate was inhibitory. After desalination treatment of glycerol broth by electrodialysis, the acetate in the broth was removed. A fed-batch culture with electrodialytically pretreated broth as substrate was developed giving 53 g 1,3-propanediol l(-1) with a yield of 0.41 g g(-1) glycerol and a productivity of 0.94 g l(-1) h(-1).
