摘要

N-5-Monosubstituted hydantoins can be converted by fermentation or enzymatically into the enantiomerically pure L- alpha -amino acid. The object comprises microorganisms which are simple to cultivate and make high L- alpha -amino acid yields possible from various substrates. The microorganisms DSM 7329 and 7330 are suitable for the production of L- alpha -amino acids from corresponding hydantoins or carbamoyl- alpha -amino acids. The reaction is preferably carried out with dormant microorganisms. Production of various L- alpha -amino acids.
