title: [Effect of the products of the vital activity of yeast-like fungi on levorin synthesis].
abstract: The effect on levorin synthesis of the cells and fermentation broth filtrates of Candida tropicalis after their cultivation in the fermentation medium was studied. It was found that the yeast-like fungi belonging to Candida excreted during their development some products capable of stimulating the synthesis of levorin by 40--60 per cent. When the actinomycete producing levorin was grown on the medium containing 80 per cent of the filtrate the level of levorin synthesis was the same as that observed with mixed cultivation of the actinomycete and C. tropicalis. The study on the conditions providing accumulation of the stimulating substances showed the following: production of the stimulating substances started during the first hours of the yeast growth and reached its maximum by the 48th hour, these substances being consumed by the actinomycete during the fermentation process. Aeration is required for production of the stimulating substances but its high levels are not necessary.
