Experimental evaluation of a model for cometabolism: Prediction of simultaneous degradation of trichloroethylene and methane by a methanotrophic mixed culture.

abstract：:The cellulase system of Bacteroides cellulosolvens was subjected to both catabolite repression and feedback inhibition by cellobiose. Cellulose-solubilizing activity was 50% inhibited at a cellobiose concentration of 2.6 g/L and completely inhibited by 12 g/L. Glucose at 12 g/L (the highest concentration tested) had n...
