Abstract excerpt
Experiments were carried out to examine the capacity of two strains of Candida lipolytica, producing citric and isocitric acids in the alkane and glucose containing media, to grow on different two- and three-carbon compounds. The strains did not grow on oxalate, glyoxalate, glycolate, malonate or propionate. When cultivated in the media containing acetate, ethanol, glycerol, glucose or hexadecane, supersynthesis...
