چکیده

Helium displacement and nitrogen adsorption techniques were used to determine the density and porosity, respectively, of freeze-dried cell walls isolated from Bacillus megaterium KM and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The densities were 1.302 and 1.180 g/cm3, respectively, suggesting noncrystalline solids. The porosities were extremely small, indicating that the cell walls had collapsed and become essentially impervious upon lyophilization.

Characteristics of Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolated from fruits and humus: Their suitability for bread making

The objectives of this study were to clarify whether the wild yeast isolated from fruits and humus is suitable forbread making. Using colony PCR, assimilation of carbohydrate and 18S rRNA sequencing, seven strains fromamong 70 samples were identified as Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The ethanol and CO2 production by the 10-2 wild yeast strain were highest among the strains. The pH and utilized gluc...
