Abstract

Using the method of enrichment cultures, eight lactate oxidase producer strains of the fungus Geotrichum candidum were identified. The microorganisms were isolated from diverse specimens of fermented vegetables and manure. Variation in (1) the content of glucose and lactate and (2) the degree of aeration made it possible to attain lactate oxidase activities of up to 130–140 U per 11 grown medium containing microbial cells.
