Abstract
Buffering power and membrane conductance to H+ were measured inZymomonas mobilis subspmobilis ATCC 29191 by a pulse technique. Over the pH range studied, from 4.02 to 7.44,Z. mobilis presented very high values of cytoplasmic buffering capacity; it was a significant proportion of the total buffering capacity. These results support the idea that the cytoplasmic buffering power might be part of the pH homeostatic mechanism.
