## Abstract __Leishmania major__ and __L. donovani__ are parasitic protozoa that cause serious disease throughout the tropical and subβtropical regions of the world. They respond rapidly to osmotic stress. A sudden increase in osmolality causes a change in cell shape and an inhibition of the rates
Seven species of yeasts, largely consisting of Zygosaccharomyces, Debaryomyces and Schizosaccharomyces were subjected to osmotic stress using solute glucose to control water activity (Aw) in the growth media. An increased accumulation of polyhydric alcohols was revealed when the concentration of sol
