Candida guilliermondii, an Actidione‐resistant Yeast from Wine*

摘要

Candida guilliermondiivar.guilliermondii, a yeast which showed high resistance to actidione, was isolated from a red wine sample. Growth in 5000 parts/106of actidione was equal to that of the control. Sorbic acid and sodium benzoate were most effective in checking the growth at 250 parts/106but growth occurred at 750 parts/106of potassium metabisulphite. Fermentation of glucose, galactose, sucrose and raffinose was not inhibited in the presence of 1000 parts/106actidione. This is the first report on the occurrence of actidione‐resistant yeasts in the genusCandidaand on the isolation ofC. guilliermondiivar.guilliermondiifrom win
