A pellicle-forming yeast, identified as Candida ingens, was found to grow on substrates derived from the anerobic fermentation of monogastric animal wastes. The organism used volatile fatty acids C2 to C6 and ammonia nitrogen. It had a preferential uptake of the acids in increasing order of molecular weight, removing 90% of the total titratable volatile acid. The nonwrinkled pellicle had a doubling time of 3.2 h, and the doubling time of the wrinkled pellicle was 4.2 h. Proximate amino acid and nucleic acid analyses suggested that the organism might be acceptable as a source of single cell protein. Its vitamin B group content compared favorably with that of other yeasts. It contained 6% calcium and 7% phosphorus. It could be useful in removing these minerals from effluents as well as in providing them as nutrients in livestock rations.
一种形成菌膜的酵母，被鉴定为巨大假丝酵母，它能在源自单胃动物粪便厌氧发酵的底物上生长。该微生物利用C2至C6的挥发性脂肪酸和氨态氮。它优先按分子量递增顺序摄取这些酸，去除了90%的可滴定挥发性酸总量。无皱菌膜的倍增时间为3.2小时，有皱菌膜的倍增时间为4.2小时。近似氨基酸和核酸分析表明，该微生物有可能作为单细胞蛋白来源被接受。其维生素B族含量与其他酵母相比具有优势。它含有6%的钙和7%的磷。它可用于从废水中去除这些矿物质，也可作为家畜日粮中的营养物质提供这些矿物质。
