L-Glutamic acid is prepared by initially cultivating Brevibacterium divaricatum in an aqueous nutrient medium containing a carbohydrate source until essentially maximum growth of the organism is attained, subsequently adding high-test molasses to the nutrient medium and continuing the fermentation. Maximum growth may be determined by optical density measurements within the range 0.5 to 0.7. The use of strains NRRL. B-2311 and NRBL. B-2312 of B. divaricatum is preferred.
