Effect of the osmotic conditions during sporulation on the subsequent resistance of bacterial spores.

abstract：:Fermentation-derived products are in greater demand to meet the increasing global market as well as to overcome environmental problems. In this work, Escherichia coli has been metabolically engineered with acrylate pathway genes from Clostridium propionicum for the conversion of D-lactic acid to propionic acid. The in...
