## FIVE FIGURES The ability of products from ultraviolet damaged cells to stimulate the growth and proliferation of normal yeast suspensions has been studied in some detail (Loofbourow, '48). Fardon, Carroll and Ruddy ('37) established that the oxygen consumption of living yeast cells was stimulat

โฆ Synopsis
Acetaldehyde at above about 0.3 g/l inhibited yeast growth, suggesting that it may contribute to product inhibition in alcohol fermentations when present at high concentrations intracellularly. The toxic effects of acetaldehyde and ethanol were not mutually reinforcing, acetaldehyde appearing to alleviate slightly the effects of ethanol. In support of this, low concentrations of acetaldehyde greatly reduced the lag phase in ethanol-containing medium and increased the specific growth rate.

A large body of evidence exists suggesting that polyamines can play essential roles in cellular growth and differentiation. We examined the ability of alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), an irreversible inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase, the major rate-limiting enzyme in polyamine biosynthesis,
## Abstract This work concerns mathematical modeling of the rate of microbial growth on inhibitory levels of nutrients as affected by pH, concentration of the nutrients, temperature, cultivation method, and method of data analysis. __Candida utilis__ (ATCC 9226) was grown with sodium acetate as gro
