Individual cells of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae exhibit a finite replicative lifespan, which is widely believed to be a function of the number of divisions undertaken. As a consequence of ageing, yeast cells undergo constant modifications in terms of physiology, morphology and gene expression
Two types of bioreactor using a flocculating strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and continuous ethanolic fermentation as model were compared in terms of start-up evolution, overall performance and power costs. Also, the effect of adding to the medium a polymer -Magna Floc LT25 -that increases floc p
Quantification of yeast flocculation under defined conditions will help to understand the physical mechanisms of the flocculation process used in beer fermentation. Flocculation was quantified by measuring the size of yeast flocs and the number of single cells. For this purpose, a method to measure
