Abstract

Protoplasts of osmotolerant yeast strain AM-06 and AM-35 were isolated by digesting cell wall with lytic emzyme mixture containing 10 mg zymolyase-5000, 0.1 M 2-mercaptoethanol and 2/15 M phosphate buffer ( pH 7.5 ) in the presence of 0.6 M and 1.0 M KCl, respectively. The higher yield of protoplast formation was obtained from cells in log phase. In term of osmotic stabilizer, sorbital and mannitol can be used instead of KCl.
