Influence of mutagenic chemicals on fermentative production of lactic acid by Lactobacillus delbrueckii.
The influence of ammonium fluoride, caffeine, alloxan, and hydrogen peroxide on the fermentative production of lactic acid by Lactobacillus delbrueckii 9649 was studied. It has been found that hydrogen peroxide has an inhibitory effect, while caffeine and alloxan stimulate the fermentation process. The presence of ammonium fluoride does not have any marked influence on the fermentation process.
