Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

After incubation for 8 days, Cyclopentanone was relatively unchanged. On the contrary cyclopentanol was quantitatively
converted to Cyclopentanone. The proportion of Cyclopentanone to cyclopentanol in the incubation mixture became constant with the lapse of the incubation time.  In the time-course experiments starting from equimolecular
mixtures, the proportion converges on the point of about 90% Cyclopentanone and 10% cyclopentanol.
So it was established that the bioconversion of Cyclopentanone with the suspension cells of Nicotiana tabacum is an interconvertible oxidoreduction leading to an equilibrium. Such an equilibrated interconversion suggests
the participation of a dehydrogenase in the bioconversion of Cyclopentanone to cyclopentanol.
