Gas-liquid chromatography technique for detection of hippurate hydrolysis and conversion of fumarate to succinate by microorganisms.

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

A gas-liquid chromatography technique which allows simultaneous detection of hippuric acid (N-benzoylglycine) hydrolysis and conversion of fumaric acid to succinic acid by microorganisms uses a new medium, hippurate-formate-fumarate broth, and a gas chromatograph equipped with a thermal conductivity detector. This technique gave more reproducible results than other tests used in the study for detecting hippurate hydrolysis and also gave consistent results in detecting succinic acid produced from utilization of fumaric acid.
