A KINETIC ANALYSIS OF THE ENDOGENOUS RESPIRATION OF BAKERS' YEAST.

摘要: The process of endogenous respiration two strains bakers' yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, was examined kinetically. rate with respect to time in a non-nutrient medium found exhibit phases: (a) period constant O2 consumption and CO2 production (R.Q. = 1) characteristic cells ample concentrations stored material; (b) first order decline time, where the proportional concentration some substrate, S. 1 throughout second phase.) nature this substrate reexamined evidence summarized confirms notion that it is carbohydrate, probably glycogen. These phases were shown depend upon age culture amount available.
