## Abstract Brewer's yeast preparations influence glucose metabolism in vivo and in isolated tissues. We have studied the effect of a brewer's yeast extract on glucose metabolism and grwoth of rat hepatoma and human embryonic cells. Growth of the rat hepatoma cells was very much stimulated by the e

Abstract
An aqueous‐alcoholic extract of yeast (PCO) was found to inhibit mitoses in Sarcoma 180, Krebs‐2 ascites carcinoma, and the L–1210 leukemia in vitro. Contrariwise, PCO did not inhibit, and in some experiments even stimulated, the mitoses in the following normal cells in vitro: L‐929 fibroblasts; two established lines of mouse corneal cells; and mouse bone marrow cells.

The possibility of using peat in industrial fermentation has received attention recently. KUSTER (1963) noted that peat contained stimulat'ing substances and that addition of peat as a whole or some of its fractions might influence and probably improve microbial fermentations.
