Interrelationships between methanogens and fermentative or hydrolytic bacteria are well documented; however, such cocultures do not allow a complete fermentation shift to a peculiar metabolite. A new stable association between Clostridium thermocellum and Acetogenium kivui is described which converts 1 mol of cellulose (anhydroglucose equivalent) into a 2.7 mol of acetate.
