Summary

Some strains of commercial cheese starters were obtained in higher yield after batch culture in whey-based media supplemented with soy peptones than in those supplemented with papain digested skim-milk. The soy peptones contained a greater proportion of small peptides than did the skim-milk digest. Also the average size of peptides was lower (3·4–3·9 residues) in soy preparations than in the milk digest (6·8). Small peptides isolated from the soy peptones were utilized by growing starters more completely than the equivalent peptides isolated from the papain digested milk. These observations may account for the difference in cell yields with soy and milk-digest peptones.
