“…We identified three circumstances under which this phe nomenon occurred (see 80): (a) a free amino acid, but not its peptides, may be partially degraded by cellular enzymes [e.g. by decarboxylases (30)]; (b) uptake of an amino acid may be blocked by antagonistic amino acids, while uptake of its peptides is not (59); and (c) a simple deficiency in ability to transport a given amino acid into the cell may be present (54). Once in side the cell, the peptides seem to release the limiting amino acid by simple hydrolysis.…”

I This chapter cites only a few original articles from the relevant literature. It emphasizes work on the lactic acid bacteria during the period between about 1936 and 1952 and is an extension of previous accounts of this subject (75,79). Reviews that cover nutritional requirements of both these and other microorganisms in greater detail are available (16,18,55,77,34). Reviews dealing extensively with development and use of microbiologic assays are also available (1,3,77) . A useful anthology of papers in bacterial nutrition has appeared (35).
