in recent years, water or sugar syrup, flavoring agents such as fruit juice or fruit juice concentrates and stabilizers have been added to the acidified dairy beverage composition. nowadays, the popularity of low fat and defatted fruit yoghurt drinks are mainly growing. the purpose of this study was to diversify the acidified dairy products by determining the sensory, rheological and stability ...

A high throughput screening (HTS) methodology for evaluation of cellular lipid content based on Nile red fluorescence reads using black background 96-wells test plates and a plate reader equipment allowed the rapid intracellular lipid estimation of strains from a Brazilian phylloplane yeast collection. A new oleaginous yeast, Meyerozyma guilliermondii BI281A, was selected, for which the gravime...

The poster is composed of three panels, which represent the three major protein families required for the journey of cargo through the exocytic pathway. These families are the ARF and Sar1 family GTPases, which are involved in vesicle formation (left panel), Rab family GTPases, which are involved in vesicle targeting (middle panel) and SNARE family proteins, which participate in vesicle fusion ...

M ore than 7,000 years ago, when grapes and yeast joined forces for the first time to lift the spirit of humankind, the ancients imbibed with joy, unknowingly celebrating the beginnings of one of the world’s oldest biotechnological processes. The first “magical” juice came from spontaneously fermented grapes cultivated in the Zagros Mountains of Ancient Persia and the Caucasus Mountain Range be...

The new methanol-assimilating yeast species Komagataella phaffii Kurtzman sp. nov. (type strain NRRL Y-7556(T)=CBS 2612(T)) is described. Of the four known strains of this species, two were isolated from black oak trees in California, USA, one from an Emory oak in Arizona, USA, and one from an unidentified source in Mexico. The species forms hat-shaped ascospores in deliquescent asci and appear...

onychomycosis due to the yeast and yeast-like fungi was investigated among the 147 patient who refered to the mycology laboratory of school of public health during the period of 11 months. the isolated yeasts and yeast-like fungi were examined by api auxanogram methed. the distribution of isolated microorganisms were c. tropicalis 10(7.4%), c.guillioimondii & (5.9%) cases and one case of each o...

kocho and bula are fermented product of enset (ensete ventricosum). it is the staple food for 20 million people in ethiopia. the aim of study was to isolate, identify and characterize yeast species from fermented kocho and bulla by using biolog micro station. 300 kocho samples were collected from angacha district. 0.1ml of serially diluted samples were streaked on yeast pepton dextrose agar and...

We report dielectrophoretic (DEP) assembly of biological cells and microparticles using platinum-black electrodeposited conductive textile fiber. The three-dimensional conductive structures with high aspect ratios were found to facilitate high electric field regions, as revealed by scanning electron microscope characterization. The effective conducting area (Aeff) and its stability of thread el...
