TABLE 4.
Calculated amounts of acetate formed from the CO2 reduction pathway in 24 h
| Group | Acetate concn (mM) with the following sources of acetate:
|
% of total from CO2 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| CO2 | CO2 + substrate Ca | ||
| Aneg | 12.87b | 42.38 | 30.36 |
| Apos | 7.76b | 46.10 | 16.83 |
See Table 1 for the total amounts of acetate formed by fermentation.
Values are significantly different (P < 0.002), as determined by Student’s t test.
