Growing Yeast for Fun and Profit: Use of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae
نویسنده
چکیده
Yeast has great utility as a surrogate system to study aspects of mammalian biology. This utility extends to the drug discovery process, where yeast has been used to reveal the mechanism of action of compounds, to discover and characterize components of signaling pathways and to dissect protein function. These applications of yeast are illustrated by examples of research published by major pharmaceutical companies.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae TFS9, a novel isolated yeast capable of high caffeine-tolerant and its application in biodecaffeination approach
There is a great call for using microbial bio-decaffeination approach to remove caffeinefrom caffeinated products and industrial wastes. We aimed in this study to screen strainsof yeasts which exhibit high caffeine tolerance and to investigate the bio-degradation ofcaffeine under growth conditions. Sixteen yeast strains were isolated from the cultivatedtea soils collected from sites of northern...

The potential use of dietary probiotics to enhance the immunity and health of aquatic animals has recently attracted intensive attention. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of different levels of Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast on blood serum enzymes (aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP)) and antioxidant systems (S...
متن کاملA Simple and Rapid Protocol for Producing Yeast Extract from Saccharomyces cerevisiae Suitable for Preparing Bacterial Culture Media
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 ...
