Title: Mutant strain of C. acetobutylicum and process for making butanol

Abstract

A biologically pure asporogenic mutant of Clostridium acetobutylicum is produced by growing sporogenic C. acetobutylicum ATCC 4259 and treating the parent strain with ethane methane sulfonate. The mutant which as been designated C. acetobutylicum ATCC 55025 is useful in an improved ABE fermentation process, and produces high concentrations of butanol and total solvents.

Mutant E. coli strain with increased succinic acid production

Patent Donnelly, Mark; Millard, Cynthia S.; Stols, Lucy

A method for isolating succinic acid producing bacteria is provided comprising increasing the biomass of an organism which lacks the ability to catabolize pyruvate, and then subjecting the biomass to glucose-rich medium in an anaerobic environment to enable pyruvate-catabolizing mutants to grow. The invention also provides for a mutant that produces high amounts of succinic acid, which has been derived from a parent which lacked the genes for pyruvate formate lyase and lactate dehydrogenase, and which belongs to the E.coli Group of Bacteria.

Process for the fermentative production of acetone, butanol and ethanol

Patent Glassner, David A [4454 Satinwood Rd., Okemos, MI 48864]; Jain, Mahendra K [3950 Jonquil La., Okemos, MI 48864]; Datta, Rathin [442 W. Melrose Ave., #3, Chicago, IL 60657]

A process including multistage continuous fermentation followed by batch fermentation with carefully chosen temperatures for each fermentation step, combined with an asporogenic strain of C. acetobutylicum and a high carbohydrate substrate concentration yields extraordinarily high butanol and total solvents concentrations.

Strain sensors, methods of making same, and applications of same

Patent Biris, Alexandru S.; Trigwell, Steven; Hatfield, Walter

In one aspect, the present invention relates to a layered structure usable in a strain sensor. In one embodiment, the layered structure has a substrate with a first surface and an opposite, second surface defining a body portion therebetween; and a film of carbon nanotubes deposited on the first surface of the substrate, wherein the film of carbon nanotubes is conductive and characterized with an electrical resistance. In one embodiment, the carbon nanotubes are aligned in a preferential direction. In one embodiment, the carbon nanotubes are formed in a yarn such that any mechanical stress increases their electrical response. Inmore » « less
