Popis: Periodic addition of serotonin into a cultivation medium during growing of the yeast Candida guilliermondii and the bacterium Streptococcus faecalis exerts stimulatory influence on the growth of the cultures. The effect manifests itself in activating cell reproduction in the lag-phase, accelerating exponential growth of the cultures and their quicker reaching the stationary phase. The stimulatory effect of serotonin is optimal if serotonin is added to the growth medium at concentrations up to 10(-7) M with a periodicity of 2 hours.
