Summary

A bibliographic study upon different storage techniques for yeasts and molds has showed that the deep-freezing process brought best guarantees. A preliminary study on some representative strains from cheese fongic flora made it possible to establish the storing diagram. After an approximate one-year storage period, the cell survival rate and the metabolic potential for different strains were estimated. At -80 deg C (or -196 deg C) cryopreservation, followed by a -196 deg C storage ensured a good storage result for cell viability.
