Popis: The article has investigated the variation in the concentration of yeast and saprogenic bacteria, the COD and pH of dispersions over time in aerobic and anaerobic conditions. It has been shown that under aerobic conditions the death and decay of yeast cells are described by the first order equation. The water COD in the surface layer is determined by the concentration of live yeast cells at the initial period and that of water-soluble products of heir decay 3–4 days after depending on the preparation time for yeast dispersions. Saprogenic bacteria start to actively propagate on 3–4th day from the beginning of the experiment. A medium for their propagation is water-soluble organic matter formed as a result of autolysis and oxidizing destruction of yeast cells. Upon the end of four days the amount of saprogenic bacteria remains constant over two months.
