Since recent surveys of insect hemolymph (1, 2) have shown that trehalose is the major blood sugar, the hydrolytic enzyme trehalase has also awakened the interest of investigators. A purified preparation of the enzyme from Galleria mellonella (3) and from Phormia regina (4) was recently obtained and some of its properties described. The biosynthesis of trehalose with an enzyme preparation from ...

Yeast is a unicellular fungi that does not reproduce via asexual spore production (Phaff, 1966). The most commonly fed yeast in dairy diets is Saccharomyces cerevisiae (SC); a facultative anaerobic yeast often referred to as brewers or bakers yeast. The most common yeast products fed to ruminants are live cells or yeast culture mixtures. A yeast culture is a yeast-fermented product that contain...

The nature of undesirable and unfilterable haze particles observed by craft breweries remains nebulous presents a challenge when the aim is production bright beer. A commercial beer was studied in which brewery had sporadically encountered haze. In this study, it hypothesized that were formed due to increased concentrations proteins, polyphenols, and/or beta-glucans. Samples high low India Pale...

The production of beer yields a number by-product streams, with spent brewers’ yeast being the second most abundant in volume. high nutritional value has seen large proportion used for both food and feed purposes. One uses human consumption been spreads, which came onto market early 20th century, first United Kingdom shortly thereafter commonwealth dominions, especially Australia New Zealand. I...

PURPOSE The effect of brewers' yeast (1,3)-(1,6)-beta-D-glucan consumption on the number of common cold episodes in healthy subject was investigated. METHODS In a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, multicentric clinical trial, 162 healthy participants with recurring infections received 900 mg of either placebo (n = 81) or an insoluble yeast (1,3)-(1,6)-beta-D-glucan preparation (n ...

The relative concentration of available inorganic elements is critical for yeast growth and metabolism has potential to be a tool leading directed flavour formation during fermentation. This study investigates the influence essential alcoholic fermentation brewers wort, fermented using three independent strains, Saccharomyces pastorianus W34/70, cerevisiae strains M2 NCYC2592 under range condit...

Several analogues of thiamine’ are known to compete with the vitamin when administered to animals. Thus, Woolley and White (1) have observed that pyrithiamine caused the manifestation of typical thiamine deficiency symptoms, which could be competitively overcome by the vitamin. The antivitamin effect of oxythiamine in mice has been reported by Soodak and Cerecedo (2). Cerecedo et al. (3, 4), co...
