Phenylpropanoic Acid: Growth Factor for Ruminococcus albus
Abstract
Phenylpropanoic acid accounted for part of the stimulatory effect of rumen fluid on the rate of growth and of cellulose digestion by cultures of Ruminococcus albus strain 8 grown on a chemically defined medium. As little as 3 muM concentration gave maximum response.
