Spontaneous Fermentation

Yeast species associated with the spontaneous fermentation of cider.

This paper reports the influence of cider-making technology (pneumatic and traditional pressing) on the dynamics of wild yeast populations. Yeast colonies isolated from apple juice before and throughout fermentation at a cider cellar of Asturias (Spain), during two consecutive years were studied. The yeast strains were identified by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of the 5.8S ...

Application of Multifractal Wavelet Analysis to Spontaneous Fermentation Processes

An algorithm is presented here to get more detailed information, of mixed culture type, based exclusively on the biomass concentrations data for fermentation processes. The analysis is performed having available only the on-line measurements of the redox potential. It is a two-step procedure which includes an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) that relates the redox potential to the biomass concen...

Biodiversity of Yeasts During Plum Wegierka Zwykla Spontaneous Fermentation**

The study comprises an analysis of the yeast microbiota that participated in the spontaneous fermentation of crushed Wegierka Zwykla plum fruit, which is the raw material for slivovitz production in the mountain region in the south of Poland. Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast strains were differentiated by means of the killer sensitivity analysis related to a killer reference panel of 9 well-known...

Influence of Spontaneous Fermentation on Some Quality Characteristics of Maize-based Cowpea-fortified Nixtamalized Foods

comparison of methods for identification of yeasts isolated during spontaneous fermentation of freshly crushed pineapple juices

the aim of this study was to evaluate the performances of methods such as sequencing of the internal transcribed spacer (its) and 26s (d1/d2) regions of ribosomal dna, rflp analysis of the its region and commercial biochemical test kit for the identification of the yeasts isolated during spontaneous fermentation of fresh crushed pineapple juice. the experiments were conducted in thailand and au...
