Abstract
1) The metabolic pathway of D-glucuronic acid by A. aerogenes A-1 was investigated by the use of inhibitors, successive adaptation and chromatography. D-glucuronic acid is believed to be metabolized through galacturonic and tagaturonic acids to carbon dioxide and water by the dicarboxylic acid cycle.
2) The metabolic pathway of D-glucuronic acid and D-glucose by this organism appeared to be common below the dicarboxylic acid cycle.
