Measurement of the rate of hydrogen production by Clostridium butyricum using an amperometric method

The rate of production of hydrogen by Clostridium butyricum was measured using a modified oxygraph equipment. As an example of the application of the method, some results of the investigations on the effect of short‐chain volatile fatty acids on the metabolism of the organism are shown.
