In turn the starch ingredients used also alter the microbial ecology dictating both the type and amount of metabolites present, e . g . " Aspergillus oryzae " and " Rhizopus oryzae " both produce more starch degrading enzymes and are found commonly on 100 % flour substrates, whilst " Actinomucor " and " Mucor " produce more proteolytic and lipolytic enzymes and are more abundant when pulse flours are added.

Blumenbach held that all living organisms " from man down to maggots, and from the cedar to common mould or mucor, " possess an inherent " effort or tendency which, while life continues, is active and operative; in the first instance to attain the definite form of the species, then to preserve it entire, and, when it is infringed upon, so far as this is possible, to restore it . " This power of vitality is " not referable to any qualities merely physical, chemical, or mechanical ."
