Abstract Because of widespread use probiotics, their safety must be guaranteed. We assessed Saccharomyces boulardii probiotic yeast from medical records for patients who had fungemia or other clinical culture findings. evaluated all sp. findings at 5 university hospitals in Finland during 2009–2018. found 46 fungemia; least 20 (43%) were using S. probiotic. Compared with a control group that ba...

The genome of lager brewer's yeast is a hybrid, with Saccharomyces eubayanus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae as sub-genomes. Due to their specific use in the beer industry, relatively little information is available. The genome of brewing yeast was sequenced and annotated in this study. We obtained a genome size of 22.7 Mbp that consisted of 133 scaffolds, with 65 scaffolds larger than 10 kbp. Wit...

Xylose is one of the major fermentable sugars present in cellulosic biomass, second only to glucose. However, Saccharomyces spp., the best sugar-fermenting microorganisms, are not able to metabolize xylose. We developed recombinant plasmids that can transform Saccharomyces spp. into xylose-fermenting yeasts. These plasmids, designated pLNH31, -32, -33, and -34, are 2 microns-based high-copy-num...

this experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of different levels of saccharomyces cerevisiae cell wall on performance, carcass traits and intestinal morphology in broilers. in this experiment 240 ross- 308 broilers were used in 4 treatments, 5 replicates and 12 bird in each replicate in a completely randomized design for 42 days. the treatments included: 1) control group (without sac...

Ethanol production from alkali treated rice straw was investigated by simultaneous saccharification and cofermentation (SSCF) using commercial cellulase and 3 different yeast strains viz., Saccharomyces cerevisiae HAU-1, Pachysolen tannophilus and Candida sp. individually as well as in combination at varied fermentation temperature and incubation time. Dilute alkali (2%) pretreatment of straw r...

The effects of the addition of metal salts and metal salt-catalyzed hydrolyzates on yeast cell growth in ethanol fermentation were investigated. Four yeast strains (Saccharomyces cerevisiae WT1, Saccharomyces cerevisiae MT81, Candida sp. 1779, and Klumaromyces fragilis), four metal salts (CuCl2, FeCl3, AgNO3, and I2), two metal salt-catalyzed hydrolyzates (CuCl2, and FeCl3), and a H2SO4-catalyz...
