Aa. Bespalov et Np. Elinov, THE INFLUENCE OF CARBOHYDRATE ADDITIVES O N THE GROWTH AND POLYSACCHARIDE PRODUCTION BY CRYPTOCOCCUS-LUTEOLUS (SAITO) SKINNER, STRAIN-228, Mikologia i fitopatologia, 30(2), 1996, pp. 20-25
The influence of the various carbohydrate additives on growth and poly
saccharide production by the Cryptococcus luteolus strain 228 was inve
stigated. It was shown that the carbohydrate additives had not influen
ced essentially on the polysaccharide production by the C. luteolus. S
ome increase of cell biomass (on 10-22 %) and polysaccharide productio
n are marked at adding to medium mannitol, sorbitol and maltose at the
ratio with glucose 10:40 Gamma/pi, which can be recommended to grow a
n inoculum.
