The Interactions of Pept1De-Precipitating Lignosulphonic Acids and the Fermentation of Various Sugars by a Strain of Candida Utilis
Vekselvirkninger mellom peptidpresipiterende ligninsulfonsyrer og fermentering au forskjellige sukkerarter med en stamme au Candida utilis
Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica volume 13, pages 505–519 (1972)
Abstract
The fermentation of various sugars by Gandida utilis in the presence of purified peptide-precipitating lignosulphonic acids has been studied. An inhibitory effect on the fermentation of sucrose, glucose, xylose and an equimolar mixture of glucose and fructose was found, the effect being most pronounced for xylose. Inhibition of the fermentation of xylose was seen when 0.5 % lignosulphonic acids were included, but not when 0.25 % were used. A difference in the inhibitory effect on the fermentation of sucrose and an equimolar mixture of glucose and fructose was observed, and the result is discussed in relation to a possible inhibitory mechanism of the lignosulphonic acids.
The peptide-precipitating ability of the lignosulphonic acids seemed to be little influenced during the fermentation of the sugars by Gandida utilis.
Sammendrag
En har studert fermentering av forskjellige sukkerarter med Candida utilis i blanding med rensede peptidpresipiterende ligninsulfonsyrer. En fant at fermentering av sukrose, glukose, xylose og en ekvimolar blanding av glukose og fruktose ble hemmet. Hemmingseffekten var mest uttalt når xylose ble brukt. Med 0,5 % ligninsulfonsyrer kunne en se hemming av xylosefermenteringen, men ikke når 0,25 % ble brukt.
Det ble funnet forskjell i den hemmende effekt på sukrosefermentering og på fermentering av en ekvimolar blanding av glukose og fruktose, og dette resultat er diskutert i relasjon til en mulig hemmingsmekanisme for ligninsulfonsyrer.
Ligninsulfonsyrenes peptidpresipiterende evne synes ikke å forandres under fermentering av de sukkerarter som er brukt.
