β¦ Synopsis
Candida peudo;DropLc~ ATCC 8619 was selected among nine strains of lactose-fermenting yeasts on the basis of its ability to ferment concentrated whey. In 28% (wt/vol) deproteinized whey solutions it produced an average of 12.4% (vol/vol) ethanol. This yeast could be used in a process for whey treatment.

Optimal conditions for ethanol production in 7% whey solutions by the yeast Canclida pseudo~opic~ ATCC 8619 included initial pH of 4.57 and 30Β°C. Complete fermentation of the available lactose took place without supplementary nutrients; additions of nitrogen or phosphorus salts, yeast extract or co
