Abstract
SUMMARY: The growth of three yeast species was inhibited by δ-hexachlorocyclo-hexane more strongly than by the γ-isomer; the degree of inhibition was related to the inositol requirement of the given yeast. The fermentation of glucose was inhibited only by the δ-isomer and the effect was not reversed by inositol. In one species oxygen uptake was inhibited more strongly by the δ-isomer than by the γ-isomer; only the inhibition caused by the γ-isomer was affected by inositol.Keywords
