Production of a bioflocculant by Rhodococcus [Corynebacterium] erythropolis S-1 grown on alcohols

Rhodococcus erythropolis strain S-1, which was isolated from soil, produces a bioflocculant. We have found that alcohols are useful carbon sources for its flocculant production. Ethanol was best for flocculant production and culture time. The bioflocculant produced on ethanol medium flocculated a wi...

Zusammenfassung:	Rhodococcus erythropolis strain S-1, which was isolated from soil, produces a bioflocculant. We have found that alcohols are useful carbon sources for its flocculant production. Ethanol was best for flocculant production and culture time. The bioflocculant produced on ethanol medium flocculated a wide range of suspended soils, alkaline and acid
