Abstract
The sensitivity of a wide variety of yeasts to Williopsis and Hansenul a killer toxins was found to depend on the pH of the medium, thus exte nding our understanding of the factors influencing killer toxin activi ty. We would therefore suggest that the screening of new organisms pro ducing new killer toxins is carried out at different pH values and wit h more than one sensitive test culture.
