Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of solute and hydrogen ion concentration on the water relations of some xerophilic fungi.
J. I. Pitt,Ailsa D. Hocking +1 more
TL;DR: The results showed that a universal isolation medium for xerophilic fungi could be based on glycerol or glucose/fructose but not on NaCl as aw-limiting solute.
Journal ArticleDOI
Natural-abundance 13C nuclear magnetic resonance studies on the internal solutes of xerophilic fungi
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used NMR spectroscopy to study the patterns of accumulation of osmotically active internal solutes in five different fungi (Penicillium janczewskii, Eurotium chevalieri, Xeromyces bisporus and Wallemia sebi), and one non-xerophilic fungal species (P. digitatum).
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of water activity and culture age on the glycerol accumulation patterns of five fungi
TL;DR: Glycerol depletion appeared to be related to the formation of spores and their maturation, and the complexity of the spore-bearing structures.
