Abstract
SUMMARY: The assay of inositol has been developed using Kloeckera brevis B 768 and a strain of Schizosaccharomyces pombe. In the assay of Difeo Bacto yeast extract it was necessary to supplement the basal medium with an inositol-free preparation from yeast extract. A new assay design has been proposed and the results treated statistically.
