Abstract

The results of this study confirm the enhanced production of L-lysine bySaccharomyces cerevisiae during the fermentation of glucose at a 0.6M concentration of NaCl previously observed (8). Changes in NaCl concentration above or below 0.6M caused a drop in the maximum production of lysine. Fermentations run at 1.0, 1.4, and 1.8 VVM aeration rates and at 0.0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, and 1.2M NaCl concentrations gave the highest intracellular lysine yield at 0.6M and 1.4 VVM.
