RESUMO
Growth of the methanogenic bacterium Methanoplanus endosymbiosus is dependent on the presence of ruminal fluid. Ruminal fluid could be replaced by the eluate of a rumen-derived anaerobic digester. From the eluate of the digester, a growth-stimulatory component was purified and identified as p-cresol. Authentic p-cresol supported a half-maximal growth rate of the organism at 50 nM concentration.
