this study aims to determine the effect of fermentation condition and saccharomyces strains on the ph, foam property and co2 concentration of non-alcoholic beer (ma-al-shaeer). for this, the beer samples were inoculated with four different species of saccharomyces (saccharomyces rouxii 70531, s. rouxii 70535, s. ludwigii 3447 and s. cerevisiae 70424) and fermented for 48h in both aerobic and pe...

Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), namely, oleic (C18:1), linoleic (C18:2), and gamma-linolenic acid (C18:3), constituted the majority in the total fatty acid content (44%) of sporangiospores of Mucor rouxii. At 30 degrees C, the germination begins within 1h at which time spore swelling occurs, followed by germ tube emergence within 3-4h. Throughout germination, an increase in gamma-linolenic...

Cells of the osmotolerant yeast Saccharomyces rouxii were transformed to protoplasts in good yield (85%) by digesting cell walls with snail-gut enzyme in the presence of 10 mM dithioerythritol, 0.1 M sodium phosphate buffer (pH 6.8), and 2.0 M KCl. The requirement for 2.0 M KCl compares with that for S. bisporus var. mellis (another osmotolerant species) and contrasts with the 0.3 to 0.8 M KCl ...

The growth of Saccharomyces rouxii and Saccharomyces mellis, which are two of the main spoilage organisms of dates, can be inhibited by various treatments. The most effective treatment found in this study that did not affect flavor consisted of a predip of the dates in 2% potassium sorbate solution followed by injection of methyl bromide into the sealed package.

Sulphite inhibited growth of all four yeasts studied, Zygosaccharomyces bailii NCYC 563 being most sensitive and Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCYC 431 the least. Vertical Woolf-Eadie plots were obtained for initial velocities of 35S accumulation by all four yeasts suspended in high concentrations of sulphite. Equilibrium levels of 35S accumulation were reached somewhat faster with strains of S. cer...
