Abstract

The monosodium glutamate slop wastes of spent mother liquor and liquid fertilizer were utilized in biomass production of yeasts. Twenty-one yeasts consisting of 8 species of Saccharomyces, 8 species of Candida, Torulopsis glabrata, §chizosaccharorayses pombe, and Rhodotorula pilimanae were grown. Five and 2 yeasts qualified in the first group producing above 4 g/100 ml of spent mother liquor and liquid fertilizer, respectively; 4 and 7 yeasts in tte second group producing 3-4 g/100 ml; 3 and 10 yeasts in the third group producing 2-3 gilie,m1; and 4 and 2 yeasts in the fourth group producing less than 2 g/100 ml. The highest yielding group includes Candida utilis va.r. thermo-phila, Rhodotorula pilimanae, Kluyvemrnyces rnarxianus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae Fiefs. hmann and C. guilliermondii in the spent mother liquor; and Sacch,M2L.--rn ces carlsbergensis and Kluyverorgces ma in the liquid fertilizer.
