For the production of single cell protein from n-paraffin, yeasts utilizing n-paraffin and ethanol were isolated from oil deposit and oil field soils. The mixed cultivation between yeasts assimilating n-paraffin and ethanol was carried out to increase cell yield. Finally, selected strains were identified and suitable medium composition for mixed culture was compared with that of single cultures using flask and 5 l-jar fermentor. Yeasts grow on n-paraffin and ethanol were identified as Candida tropicalis var. KIST 76 and Trichosporon cutaneum KIST 76H respectively. By mixed cultivation under the suitable medium composition using 5 l-jar fermentor, maximum dry cell weight reached 20 g/l after 12 hrs. cultivation and it's protein content was 58%. Yield has been increased about 25% and protein content has been increased 6.7% compared to that of single culture, Candida tropicalis var. KIST 76, after 16 hrs. cultivation.

국내외에서 수집한 유침 및 유전지대의 토양시료에서 n-paraffin자화성균주와 ethanol자화성균주를 분리하여 혼합배양을 시도하였고 선정된 균주에 대해서는 등정과 아울러 최적배지조성을 검토하였다. 최종적으로 선정된 균주중 n-paraffin자화성균주(strain No. 76)는 Candida tropicalis var. KIST 76으로, ethanol 자화성균주 (Strain No. 76H)는 Trichosporn cutaneum KIST 76H로 동정되었다. 최적배지조성에서 Candida tropicalis var. KIST 76을 단독배양하였을때 건조균체량은 배양 16시간 후에 16 g/l(대기질당 수율 71.1%), 이때의 단백질함량은 53.4%였으나 Candida tropicalis var. KIST 76과 Trichosporn cutaneum KIST 76H와 혼합배양하면 배양 12시간 후에 건조균체량은 20g/l(대기질당 수율 88.8%), 단백질 함량은 58.0%로 증가하였다.
