If this does not help can you provide any more details as to exactly what sugar this organism converts to acetic acid (vinegar)? Fructose, Sucrose, Galactose, etc?

Participanti’m using orange , manggo and banana
so maybe it is fructose"The fermentation kinetics of acetic acid production from fructose by Clostridium formicoaceticum was studied at pH 7.6 and 37 degreesC"
37 degreesC is too high 🙁 i’m using room temperature

ParticipantIs this microbe doing a conversion of sucrose/fructose to acetic acid DIRECTLY or does it first convert it to sugar alcohol, then to acetic acid? (I dont think this is the case but I have to ask)

Participanti don’t know 🙁
that’s why i ask 🙁
is it acetobacter or Clostridium formicoaceticum or other bacteria ? - August 9, 2010 at 1:13 am #100808

ParticipantLook into Acetobacter and yeast, then 😉 Theyll convert sugar alcohol to acetic acid + h2o

ParticipantAcetic Acid Bacteria or Acetobactor is the bacteria that changes fruit juices into Acetic Acid.
