The hydrogen-producing bacterium was isolated from fresh water and identified as Enterobacter cloacae. The isolated was named Enterobacter cloacae YJ-1. In batch culture, The optimum cultivation temperature and pH of strain YJ-1 was 35℃ and 7.5, respectively. All of the added glucose was consumed completely during fermentation even though pH was not controlled. Amount of hydrogen produced on each condition of 2％ glucose, 4％ sucrose and 5％ fructose was 950, 1000 and 948 mL/L, respectively and resulted in increasing hydrogen production approximately 2.5-times more than controlled condition. The maximum hydrogen production was obtained when 50 mM phosphate was added. In repeated-batch culture, hydrogen gas of 1920 mL/L was totally produced for 48. The maximum hydrogen was produced on the condition of 0.5％ yeast extract, but the production amount was not changed on the condition of over 0.5%. Most of the organic acids produced during the fermentation were formic and acetic acid, and propionic acid was moiety also generated.

수소를 생산하기 위하여 자연계로부터 분리된 균주는 Enterobacter cloacae로 동정되었으며 이 균주를 YJ-1으로 명명하였다. 수소발생량을 기준하여 이 균주의 최적 성장조건을 살펴본 바, 회분식 배양에서 35℃, pH 7.5로 나타났다. 따라서 탄소원의 농도를 변화시킨 결과, 최대의 수소생산은 2％ glucose, 4％ sucrose, 5％ fructose에서 각각 950 mL/L, 1000 mL/L, 948 mL/L을 얻어졌으며, 초기에 비해 2.5배 높은 생산량을 얻을 수 있었다. 유기산 축척에 따른 pH 저하를 막기 위해 완충제인 phosphate를 첨가한 결과, 50 mM에서 가장 높은 수소를 생산할 수 있었다. 반회분식 배양으로 50％의 새로운 배지를 8 hr 간격으로 치환하여 48시간동안 수행한 결과 1920 mL/L의 수소를 생산할 수 있었다. Yeast extract는 균체성장에 중요한 성분으로서 0.5％에서 최대의 수소를 생산할 수 있었다. 발효 중 생성된 유기산은 대부분 formic acid, acetic acid이고 적은 양의 propionic acid가 생성되었다.
