Citric acid had a toxic effect on the mycelial growth ofGeotrichum candidum. At equal pH, citric acid was more toxic than HCl but its effect was minimized by adding CaCl2. The results indicate that the toxic effect of citric acid is due to the undissociated component and its ability to sequester the essential cations present in the growth medium.
柠檬酸对球拟酵母的菌丝生长有抑制作用。在等 pH 值条件下,柠檬酸比 HCl 的毒性更大,但添加 CaCl2 后其毒性作用最小化。结果表明,柠檬酸的毒性作用归因于未解离的成分及其螯合生长介质中必需阳离子的能力。
