The worldwide surplus of glycerol generated as inevitable byproduct of biodiesel fuel and oleochemical production is resulting in the shutdown of traditional glycerol-producing/refining plants and new applications are needed for this now abundant carbon source. In this article we report our finding
Due to its availability, low-price, and high degree of reduction, glycerol has become an attractive carbon source for the production of fuels and reduced chemicals. Using the platform we have established from the identification of key pathways mediating fermentative metabolism of glycerol, this work
## Abstract The response of __Escherichia coli__ cells to transient exposure (step increase) in substrate concentration and anaerobiosis leading to mixedβacid fermentation metabolism was studied in a twoβcompartment bioreactor system consisting of a stirred tank reactor (STR) connected to a miniβpl
## Abstract Application of metabolic engineering principles to the rational design of microbial production processes crucially depends on the ability to describe quantitatively the systemic behavior of the central carbon metabolism to redirect carbon fluxes to the productβforming pathways. Despite
