Co-production of hydrogen and ethyl acetate in Escherichia coli

Abstract Background Ethyl acetate (C4H8O2) and hydrogen (H2) are industrially relevant compounds that preferably are produced via sustainable, non-petrochemical production processes. Both compounds are volatile and can be produced by Escherichia coli before. However, relatively low yields for hydrog...
