Yeasts, especially Saccharomyces cerevisiae, are one of the oldest organisms with broad spectrum of applications, owing to their unique genetics and physiology. Yeast extract, i.e. the product of yeast cells, is extensively used as nutritional resource in bacterial culture media. The aim of this study was to develop a simple, rapid and cost benefit process to produce the yeast extract. In this ...

In this work, the effect of immobilization of bread yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) by sol-gel technique combined with functionalized nanoporous silica was investigated in different weight ratios of silica containing materials (TMOS: LUS-1). The activities of immobilized yeast in days after immobilization were examined. The results showed immobilization maintain the yeast life for a longer tim...

this study was carried out to evaluate the effect of commercial live bakery’s’ yeast( saccharomyces cerevisiae ), (marketed as amax), on growth and survival of persian sturgeon( acipenser persicus) larvae (74.9 ± 9.7mg) during 30 days. sturgeon larvae were fed on daphnia magna enriched at three suspensions of yeast, amax, (0, 50, 100, and 150 mg yeast per litter). the feeding level was 30 perce...

yeast has been a very helpful organism for centuries, especially with respect to fermentation of sugars and production of bread. however, for an even longer time, yeast has been a distant relative of humans having diverged from a common ancestor, about one billion years ago. more than one third of the yeast genes have human counterparts, despite this evolutionary distance. yeast and human ortho...

the effect of yeast culture (saccharomyces cerevisiae) supplementation on laying hen diets was tested against flavomycin supplementation during 12 weeks, using 112 brown bovans laying hens, 52 week-old, divided into 7 equal groups fed on a basal diet containing 18.8% crude protein and 2810 kcal/kg me (metabolizable energy) feed. three groups were supplemented with 3 different levels of commerci...

berberine was loaded in yeast cells of saccharomyces cerevisiaeas a novel pharmaceutical carrier to improve the treatment ofmany diseases. the yeast-encapsulated active materialsshowedhigh stability and bioavailability due to the enhanced solubility and sustained releasing. in this study, different characteristics of prepared berberine loaded yeast cells (loading capacity, release kinetic order...

Baked goods are among the most important sources of human food. They may suffer from a limited shelf life due to use of low-quality wheat. However, there are a number of novel dough preparation methods that can improve bread quality. The current study analyzed the effect of the yeast-salt method on the physicochemical and rheological properties of toast dough and bread. Baker’s yeast was used a...

In this study, twenty-five whey samples collected from dairy industries in the city of Isfahan. The sampleswere cultured on malt extract broth (MEB) and yeast extract glucose chloramphenicol agar (YGCA) media.Eleven yeast strains (designated M1 to M11) were isolated from the culture. The strains were identified bytheir morphological and physiological properties. Betagalactosid...

A 50-day feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of yeast nucleotide in diets on growth performance, serum immune indices and muscle composition of Ancherythroculter nigrocauda (mean initial body weight, 23.30±0.59 g). Seven isonitrogenous (approximately 42.76% crude protein) and isoenergetic (17.43 KJ g−1 gross energy) experimental diets with varying levels of yeast nucleotide (0[c...
