Monitoring dark hydrogen fermentation performance of indigenous Clostridium butyricum by hydrogenase gene expression using RT-PCR and qPCR

TL;DR: The results show that the specific hydrogen production rate of C. butyricum CGS5 was essentially linearly proportional to the level of hydA expression, whereas the profiles of microbial growth and volumetric H2 production rate followed a similar trend to that of the hydA DNA copies.

Formation of extracellular polymeric substances from acidogenic sludge in H2-producing process.

TL;DR: Investigation of the formation of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and surface characteristics of an acidogenic sludge in anaerobic H2-producing process showed that carbohydrates, proteins, and humic substances were the dominant components in bound EPS (BEPS), while in soluble EPS (SEPS), carbohydrates were the main component.
