Lynen, aware of the membrane impermeability of yeast, obtained malonate inhibition by disturbing the membrane on treatment of yeast cells with liquid nitrogen-^. At pH , the lowest pH for respiration of these microorganisms, acetate oxidation by C. creatinovorans was inhibited "^jyo', by Pseudomonas fluorescens, 15%; by Tetrahymena geleii, completel}'. The membrane of moulds seems more im- permeable to malonate: malonate
