Possible Interaction: Glucose and 2-Propanol

“The 13C-abundance in isopropanol synthesized by the engineered strain was significantly increased up to 4.8%, demonstrating actual reassimilation of CO2 emitted from glucose moiety by decarboxylation and potential contribution towards increase in the carbon yield of isopropanol on glucose.”

“ Glucose at 10 g l−1 increased 2-propanol and acetone utilization from 0.93 g l−1 to 1.77 g l−1 and from 0.11 g l−1 to 1.62 g l−1, respectively.”
