Abstract
⺠Ni2+ and Mg2+ affected the phototrophic growth and H2 production by Rhodobacter sphaeroides MDC6521. ⺠The highest growth specific rate was obtained with 4-6 μM Ni2+ and 5 mM Mg2+. ⺠The changes in pH increase were observed with Mg2+ but not with Ni2+. ⺠Ni2+ and Mg2+ increased drop in external redox potential during the growth. ⺠2-4 μM Ni2+ and 5-10 mM Mg2+ were effective for significant increase of H2 production.
