Research reveals how butanol toxicity affects microbial fermentation, offering insights to enhance biofuel production efficiency and economic outcomes.

Researchers have uncovered how biofuel alcohols, like butanol, damage microbial membranes, limiting production efficiency.

Researchers achieved a breakthrough in understanding the vulnerability of microbes to the alcohols they produce during fermentation of plant biomass.

One limitation of producing biofuel is that the alcohol created by fermentation is toxic to the microbes that produce it.Now ...
