heal.abstract	The ability of casein to stimulate proteinase production in pH controlled fermentations of various Lactobacillus strains was examined in MRS and whey permeate medium. All examined strains have maximum growth rate in substrates containing 0.5% casitone as amino acid source. In all cases lactic acid production coincides with the growth. When casitone was replaced by total caseine, the growth rate was several fold lower, but the specific activity of the proteinase was at least three fold higher. These results clearly show the inductive role of casein in proteinase production by lactobacilli.	en
