Summary
Malic acid degradation bySchizosaccharomyces pombe was studied in synthetic and natural media. Using different concentrations from 1 to 29 g/l, malic acid was degraded. Initial deacidification rate increased with initial malate concentration. During the stationnary phase,S. pombe was able to decompose malate added to the medium before or after sugar exhaustion.
