An Efficient New Process for the Selective Production of Odd-Chain Carboxylic Acids by Simple Carbon Elongation Using Megasphaera hexanoica

The caproate-producing bacterium, Megasphaera hexanoica, metabolizes fructose to produce C(2)~C(8) carbon-chain carboxylic acids using various electron acceptors. In particular, odd-chain carboxylic acids (OCCAs) such as valerate (C(5)) and heptanoate (C(7)), were produced at relatively high concent...
