Abstract
Using Candida rugosa JF 114, the differences between the monosaccharide components of kerosene-assimilated cells (K-cells) and those of glucose-assimilated cells (G-cells) were investigated.
The monosaccharide components of both cells consisted of glucose, mannose and galactose. The K-cells have a lower content of total saccharide, namely, crude carbohydrate and a higher content of crude fat than the G-cells. It is concluded that there is no qualitative difference between the monosaccharide components of G-cells and K-cells.
