Abstract
Substrates used by Brochothrix thermosphacta when growing aerobically on meat include glucose, ribose, glycerol, glycerol-3-phosphate and inosine. Glycogen and inosine-monophosphate are not used. Of these substrates, only glucose and ribose are metabolized during anaerobic growth. Ribose is probably the major energy source for anaerobic growth on high pH meat.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
