I was not shure about fermentation, because I thought that trehalose
can not be used by Bacteria (it was not mentioned in my Biochemical
Pathways index). Now I have found this pathway somewhere else. One
more question: There are several possibilities for acidification. What
is the normal reason to explain changes in pH? Protons, CO2,
lactate,..? And one last question: We see a linear increase in
conductivity with using Glucose. If we use e.g. mannitol or saccarose
we see a lower increase at first, after 120 min a stronger increase
and after 180 min again only a low increase. Is it like it is written
in school books: Do some enzymes have to be made first? If yes, what
happends after 180 min?
