Abstract
Proline and glutamine were the predominant free amino acids in S. aureus MF-31 challenged by 5.8 or 10% NaCl in the growth medium. The accumulation of glutamine was the result of its synthesis; the accumulation of proline was by transport.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
