From: Dynamics of dark fermentation microbial communities in the light of lactate and butyrate production
Sample ID | Experiment | Day of passage/replicates | Sample name in Fig. 3 | Fermentation substrate /products description |
---|---|---|---|---|
MLA-3-AC | MLA | 3/pooled A+C | MLA 3 A and MLA 3 C | The main non-gaseous fermentation products of molasses were lactate and ethanol, concentration of butyrate was very low |
MLA-9-AC | MLA | 9/pooled A+C | MLA 9 A and MLA 9 C | The main fermentation product of molasses supplemented with acetate and lactate was butyrate; lactate as a substrate was efficiently utilized |
LA-3-BC | LA | 3/pooled B+C | LA 3 B and LA 3 C | Lactate as a substrate was partially metabolized |
LA-18-AB | LA | 18/pooled A+B | LA 18 A and LA 18 B | The main fermentation product of the medium containing exclusively lactate and acetate was butyrate; lactate as a substrate was efficiently utilized |
