Conversion of chitinous wastes to hydrogen gas by clostridium paraputrificum M-21

TLDR
The chitinolytic bacterium Clostridium paraputrificum strain M-21 produced 2.2 and 1.5 mol hydrogen gas from 1 mol Nacetyl-d-glucosamine (GlcNAc) and ball-milled chitin equivalent to 1 mol of Glc NAc, respectively, at pH 6.0 as discussed by the authors.
