É possível mensurar o metabolismo fermentativo e respiratório de uma levedura alcoólica, conhecendo a quantidade de etanol formado na fermentação e de gás carbônico proveniente dos processos de respiração e fermentação. O objetivo deste trabalho foi calcular a taxa respiratória e fermentativa de diferentes cepas de levedura alcoólica por meio de método estequiométrico. Foram utilizadas cinco diferentes cepas de leveduras (panificação, cervejeira de alta fermentação (ale), cervejeira de baixa fermentação (lager), vinho tinto e vinho branco). O meio de cultivo foi mosto de cana de açúcar (15 °Brix). A fermentação transcorreu durante 8 horas, na temperatura ambiente, em fermentador aberto. A levedura cervejeira de alta fermentação e de panificação apresentaram as maiores taxas respiratórias (19,17% e 19,12%), as leveduras de vinho branco e cervejeira de baixa fermentação tiveram as maiores taxas fermentativas (90,48% e 89,67%), a levedura cervejeira de baixa fermentação produziu a maior quantidade de etanol (7,57%) e a levedura de panificação apresentou maior capacidade metabólica (131,59 g de sacarose consumidos).   Palavras-chave: fermentação, respiração, Saccharomyces cerevisiae.   QUANTIFICATION OF RESPIRO-FERMENTATIVE METABOLISM OF BEER, WINE AND BREAD YIELD BY ESTEQUIOMETRIC METHOD   ABSTRACT: The alcoholic yeast can breathe and ferment simultaneously, called respiro-fermentative metabolism.  Yeast’s respiration and fermentation metabolism can be measured considering the amount of ethanol produced in the fermentation process and the carbon dioxide produced in both respiration and fermentation processes. This research focused on calculating the respiration and fermentation rates of five alcoholic yeast strains (baker’s, beer top-fermenting (ale), beer bottom fermenting (lager), red wine and white wine) from the stoichiometry. Sugar cane must (15 °Brix) was used as growth medium. Fermentation was performed in an open vessel at room temperature. A sample was taken hourly, and the fermentation process ended after 8 h. Beer top-fermenting yeast and baker’s yeast resulted in higher respiration rates (19.17% and 19.12%), while white wine yeast and bottom-fermenting yeast resulted in higher fermentation rates (90.48% and 89.67%). Bottom-fermenting yeast produced higher amount of ethanol (7.57%) and baker’s yeast presented higher metabolic activity (131.59 g of sucrose consumed).   Keywords: fermentation, respiration, Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

A study was carried out on encapsulation of wine yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and its use in wine making compared to free yeast. Rehydrated active dry yeast was encapsulated in a 2% sodium alginate solution, cross linked with different molar concentration of CaCl2 solution (0.1, 0.2, 0.3,0.4 and 0.5M) for 30 minutes. The molar concentration with minimum cell leakage (0.2M) was used for yeast encapsulation. Colony count (CFU/ml) was analyzed for both free yeast (FY) and encapsulated yeast (EY) so as to equilibrate the rate of yeast pitching in wine fermentation. Physico-chemical properties; total soluble solids (T.S.S.), acidity and pH of red and white grapes were analyzed and were found to be 16.4±0.10oBx, 0.38±0.02% and 3.90±0.02 for white grapes and 19±0.15oBx, 0.64±0.01% and 3.1±0.10 for red grapes. During the fermentation process in both wines, a gradual reduction in T.S.S. was noted while an alternate of increase and decrease trend in acidity was noted which finally stabilized after 12 days. The final T.S.S. of wines was not significantly different for yeast types but higher values were noted for red wine (FY, 7.11±0.26 & EY, 7.33±0.19) than for white wine (FY, 6.1±0.10 & EY, 6.2±0.10). Similar trend was noted for final acidity of red wine (FY, 0.83±0.01 & EY, 0.84±0.02%). Though, no significant effect of yeast type on alcohol production was noted, the average alcohol content of red (FY, 13.22±0.26% & EY, 13.72±0.44%) and white (FY, 9.21±0.21% & EY, 9.64±0.38%) wine were found to be significantly different. However, wine prepared from EY was less turbid (Red wine, 95 NTU & White wine, 140 NTU) and had higher clarity (L*) than wine from FY. So, from this study it was concluded that encapsulating wine yeast does not affect its fermenting capability but will aid in production of less turbid wine which will definitely simplify the filtration process.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae remains the baker’s yeast of choice in the baking industry. However, its ability to ferment cereal flour sugars and accumulate CO2 as a principal role of yeast in baking is not as unique as previously thought decades ago. The widely conserved fermentative lifestyle among the Saccharomycotina has increased our interest in the search for non-conventional yeast strains to either augment conventional baker’s yeast or develop robust strains to cater for the now diverse consumer-driven markets. A decade of research on alternative baker’s yeasts has shown that non-conventional yeasts are increasingly becoming important due to their wide carbon fermentation ranges, their novel aromatic flavour generation, and their robust stress tolerance. This review presents the credentials of non-conventional yeasts as attractive yeasts for modern baking. The evolution of the fermentative trait and tolerance to baking-associated stresses as two important attributes of baker’s yeast are discussed besides their contribution to aroma enhancement. The review further discusses the approaches to obtain new strains suitable for baking applications.

Abstract The peculiarities of Brazilian fuel ethanol fermentation allow the entry of native yeasts that may dominate over the starter strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and persist throughout the sugarcane harvest. The switch from the use of baker's yeast as starter to selected budding yeasts obtained by a selective pressure strategy was followed by a wealth of genomic information that enabled the understanding of the superiority of selected yeast strains. This review describes how the process of yeast selection evolved in the sugarcane-based bioethanol industry, the selection criteria, and recent advances in genomics that could advance the fermentation process. The prospective use of genetically modified yeast strains, specially designed for increased robustness and product yield, with special emphasis to those obtained by the CRISPR-Cas9 genome-editing approach, is discussed as a possible solution to confer higher performance and stability to the fermentation process for fuel ethanol production.

Chebulinic acid is a phenolic compound, commonly found in the Terminalia chebula, Phyllanthus emblica, Dimocarpus longan species etc. The enhancement of Chebulinic acid was obtained from the composition of medicinal herbs by using Baker’s yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) under fermentation process. The optimum results were observed for the effect of % inoculum, substrate wt, incubation period, temperature, pH, carbon sources and nitrogen sources were 2.0ml, 6g, 48hr, 30oC, 4.0, sucrose and yeast extract respectively. The Chebulinic acid concentration enhanced from 3.4 to 6.8mg/ml for the optimised conditions. Int J Appl Sci Biotechnol, Vol 3(3): 439-442

Motile Aeromonas Septicaemia disease (MAS) attacking tilapia has increased in recent years as a consequence of intensive aquaculture activities, which led to losses in aquaculture industry. The agent causing MAS disease is Aeromonas hydrophila. The disease can be controlled with the β-glucan. As immunostimulants, β-glucans can also increase resistance in farmed tilapia. Studies on the use of β-glucan extracted from baker's yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae was intended to evaluate the non-specific immune system of tilapia that were challenged with Aeromonas hydrophila. The method used was an experimental method with a completely randomized design consisting of four treatments with three replicats. The dose of β-glucan used as treatments were 0 mg.kg-1 fish (Control), 5 mg.kg-1 fish (B), 10 mg.kg-1 fish (C) and 20 mg.kg-1 fish (D), each treatment as injected three times at intervals of 3 days, the injection volume of 0.5 ml/fish for nine days and resistance surveillance for seven days. The results showed that the difference in the amount of β-glucan and the frequency of the injected real influence on total leukocytes, phagocytic activity and resistance. Total leukocytes, phagocytic activity and resistance to treatment was best achieved by the administration of C a dose of  10 mg.kg-1 of the fish© Penyakit Motil Aeromonas Septicaemia (MAS) yang menyerang ikan nila mengalami peningkatan selama beberapa tahun terakhir sebagai konsekuensi dari kegiatan akuakultur intensif, yang menyebabkan kerugian dalam industri budidaya. Agen utama penyebab penyakit MAS adalah Aeromonas hydrophila. Untuk mengendalikan penyakit tersebut dapat dilakukan dengan pemberian β-glukan. Sebagai imunostimulan, β-glukan juga dapat  meningkatkan resistensi pada ikan nila yang dibudidayakan. Pengkajian mengenai pemanfaatan β-glukan yang diekstrak dari ragi roti Saccharomyces cerevisiae dimaksudkan untuk menguji sistem imun non spesifik ikan nila yang diuji tantang dengan bakteri Aeromonas hydrophila. Metode yang digunakan yaitu metode eksperimen dengan rancangan acak lengkap yang terdiri dari empat perlakuan dan tiga ulangan. Dosis β-glukan  yang digunakan sebagai perlakuan sebesar 0 mg.kg-1 ikan (Kontrol), 5 mg.kg-1 ikan (B), 10 mg.kg-1 ikan (C) dan 20 mg.kg-1 ikan (D), masing-masing perlakuan diinjeksi sebanyak 3 kali dengan interval waktu 3 hari selama 9 hari, volume injeksi 0,5 mL/ekor ikan dan pengamatan resistensi selama tujuh hari. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan perbedaan jumlah β-glukan dan frekuensi pemberian yang diinjeksikan memberikan pengaruh nyata terhadap total leukosit, aktivitas fagositosis dan resistensi. Total leukosit, aktivitas fagositosis dan resistensi terbaik dicapai pada perlakuan C dengan dosis 10 mg.kg-1 ikan©
