Mahwa Yeast from an Alcohol Factory and Its Vitamin Content

چکیده
B vitamins has been recognized from the very beginning of vitamin research. Funk in 1911 first pointed out that yeast was a rich source of the beri-beri curative substance. Goldberger and Tanner (1925) introduced yeast in the treatment of pellagra. Goodall (1932) advocated its use in certain types of macrocytic ansemia. Various workers have shown that angular stomatitis and glossitis can be cured by yeast, an effect due to its content of riboflavin and other vitamins of the B2 complex. While it is a known fact that yeast is rich in B vitamins, its potency in the various vitamins differs according to the strain of yeast and nature of media used. Yeast grown on media

متن کاملEffects of Cigarette Smoke, Alcohol, Vitamin E and Vitamin C on Oral Mucosa and Salivary Peroxides Enzyme in Rats
Introduction: According to studies, high intake of fruits and vegetables are associated with reduced cancer incidence and mortality. The high levels of antioxidants in fruits and vegetables are believed to contribute in cancer prevention, possibly by inhibiting oxidative stress. This study aimed to investigate the effects of cigarette smoke, alcohol and vitamin E and vitamin C on oral mucosa an...
متن کاملProduction of fatty acid-derived oleochemicals and biofuels by synthetic yeast cell factories
Sustainable production of oleochemicals requires establishment of cell factory platform strains. The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an attractive cell factory as new strains can be rapidly implemented into existing infrastructures such as bioethanol production plants. Here we show high-level production of free fatty acids (FFAs) in a yeast cell factory, and the production of alkanes and fatt...
متن کاملVitamin E improved bone strength and bone minerals in male rats given alcohol
Objective(s): Alcohol consumption induces oxidative stress on bone, which in turn increases the risk of osteoporosis. This study determined the effects of vitamin E on bone strength and bone mineral content in alcohol-induced osteoporotic rats. Materials and Methods: Three months old Sprague Dawley male rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: (I) control group; (II) alcohol (3 g/kg) + normal ...
