Abstract
The electro-optical (EO) properties of a microbial cell suspension of a Brevibacterium strain were studied during the process of metabolism of acrylamide and certain other amides. Upon optimisation of cell grow th conditions, followed by EO measurements, we found that acrylamide p roduced a specific effect on the cell orientational spectra (OS) over the frequency range 10 to 502 kHz. The other amides used also affected the EO properties of the cells.
