[Fermentation products and the pectolytic enzymatic activity in Clostridium felsineum strains differing in intensity of sporulation].
Clostridium felsineum strains differing in the activity of pectolytic enzymes and the rate of spore formation varied also in the synthesis of fermentation products. Strains with the high rate of spore formation synthesized less butyric and propionic acids, but twice as much butanol; as a result, the proportion between butyric acid and butanol was 8 times as low as in the strains forming a small quantity of spores. The strains with the high activity of pectolytic enzymes contained 6.7 times more acetic acid, 3.5 times more ethanol and 2.7 times less propanol.
