abstract：:Citrate metabolism by Enterococcus faecium FAIR-E 198, an isolate from Greek Feta cheese, was studied in modified MRS (mMRS) medium under different pH conditions and glucose and citrate concentrations. In the absence of glucose, this strain was able to metabolize citrate in a pH range from constant pH 5.0 to 7.0. At a...
