Saccharomyces cerevisiae, when growing exponentially in batch culture, passed through a phase in which, on average, one cell in 10(4) survived plating onto a low water activity (aw) agar medium. Stationary phase cultures were resistant as were all other species tested, with the exception of Candida krusei. In continuous culture, S. cerevisiae was more resistant at low than at high dilution rates. Plating at low aw was lethal to those cells that were not protected by an adequate content of compatible solute. In naturally resistant yeasts and in S. cerevisiae that had been exposed to an adaptation process, the compatible solute was one or more types of polyhydric alcohol. Resistance in stationary phase was attributable to a different cause.
