Abstract
The article considers the practical application of lithium salts in medicine, biotechnology and microbiology. The relevance of the presented topic of work is given. The practical part of the paper presents the results of studying the effect of organic lithium salts in the concentration range from 0.64 to 21.28 mmol/L on the viability, biochemical parameters and productivity of starter and yeast cultures, such as bacteria Lactococcus lactis and baker's yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The results on the toxicity of selected organic lithium salts on sourdough and yeast cultures are also presented. The studies revealed that lithium pyruvate and lithium succinate have no toxicity on Lactococcus lactis bacteria and baker's yeast. As a result of studying the effect of organic salts, it was found that lithium pyruvate, succinate and ascorbate have a positive effect on the viability, biochemical processes and productivity of selected yeast and sourdough cultures.
