Validation of the P. propionicus metabolic model for fermentative growth. The biomass yield per mol of substrate, the ratios of acetate to substrates, and the ratios of produced propionate to substrates were obtained from experimental data of P. propionicus fermenting 2,3-butanediol, acetoin, ethanol, propanol, butanol, and lactate [6], and were compared to those predicted by in silico simulations with the P. propionicus metabolic model. * indicating that acetate was consumed during fermentation of propanol and butanol.
