Bio-hydrogen production from waste materials

This book is one of our contemporary medical bibles. It needs no introduction; those who have frequent need of it know it very well, and those who use it less often seek it out on the library shelf when problems arise. The book is truly encyclopedic. Everything relevant discovered during the six-year intervals between publication finds its way into these pages. By today's standards, its 1,778 closely packed small-print pages are a bargain. The mutant gene is both hero and villain in this book. It is reponsible for the biochemical abnormality that results in disease, no matter how rare a given abnormality may be. By the same token, however, it is truly an experiment of nature, shedding light on fundamental metabolic sequences and biologic mechanisms. This volume, more than most, explains the contributions of the laboratory to clinical medicine. Each chapter seems to have been rewritten, so that the exciting

The Merck Index

A [Fe]-hydrogenase gene (hydA) was cloned from Clostridium paraputrificum M-21 in Escherichia coli using a conserved DNA sequence of clostridial hydrogenase genes amplified by PCR as the probe. The hydA gene consisted of an open reading frame of 1749 bp encoding 582 amino acids with an estimated molecular mass of 64,560 Da. It was ligated into a shuttle vector, pJIR751, originally constructed for Clostridium perfringens and E. coli, and expressed in C. paraputrificum. Hydrogen gas productivity of the recombinant increased up to 1.7-fold compared with the wild-type. In the recombinant, overexpression of hydA abolished lactic acid production and increased acetic acid production by over-oxidation of NADH, which is required for reduction of pyruvic acid to lactic acid in the wild-type.
