Introduction
Ruminococcus albus 7
Ruminococcus albus 7 is isolated from bovine rumen by Robert Edward Hungate in 1951 [1]. This bacterium utilized A, B, C and D as substrate. The main fermenting end products ot this bacterium are acetate and ethanol. Produces more ethanol, H2, and CO2 rather than Ruminococcus flavefaciens.
This bacterium have high cellolytic ability and play a key roll for initial fiber degradation in rumen [X]. The production of H2 during fermentation by R. albus, providing electrons for CO₂ reduction and methane production by methanogenic archaea [].
