The Growth of Fungi on Some Different Derivatives of Cellulose (Rost Gribov na Razlichnykh Proizvodnykh Tsellyulozy),

Abstract

The biological resistance of methylcellulose and cyanoethylated fabrics to various fungi species was investigated. Test specimens were placed in sterile test tubes with a mineral culture and were innoculated with suspensions of cellulose-decomposing fungi. The resistance of the specimens to fungi decomposition is shown in tabular form as a function of the gamma value and pH of the culture. Cotton fabric was used as a control. The experiments show that the biological resistance of the treated cellulose increases as nitrogen content increases. (Author)
