✦ Synopsis
Experiments in batch-fermenters have demonstrated that the llfi-and 19-hydroxylation of Reichstein's Substance S by Pellicularia filamentosa ceases in the absence of glucose. The effects of glucose consumption rate and growth rate on hydroxylation have been investigated using chemostat cultures. With glucose-limited cultures, increased hydroxylation rates were observed with increased glucose consumption rates. With nitrogen-limited cultures, however, some form of glucose-repression exists. The maximum rate of hydroxylation occurred at a glucose consumption rate at which the culture was just nitrogen-limited. The growth rate had no major importance.
