The strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. boulardii is industrially manufactured and used clinically as a medication. Several clinical and experimental studies have shown that S. cerevisiae var. boulardii is, to lesser or greater extent, useful for prevention or treatment of several gastrointestinal diseases. [ 71 ]
Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the yeast commonly used as baker's yeast. Gradation marks are 1 μm apart.. Baker yeast is the common name for the strains of yeast commonly used in baking bread and other bakery products, serving as a leavening agent which causes the bread to rise (expand and become lighter and softer) by converting the fermentable sugars present in the dough into carbon dioxide and ...
Y187 is a strain of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) used in biological research for two-hybrid screening.The strain has been sold commercially by Clontech [1] since at least 2000 and is used as a partner with strain AH109 in mating assays.
Nutritional yeast (also known as nooch [4]) is a deactivated (i.e. dead) yeast, often a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, that is sold commercially as a food product.It is sold in the form of yellow flakes, granules, or powder, and may be found in the bulk aisle of natural food stores.
The brewing strains can be classified into two groups; the ale strains (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and the lager strains (Saccharomyces pastorianus or Saccharomyces carlsbergensis in the old taxonomy). Lager strains are a hybrid strain of S. cerevisiae and S. eubayanus and are often referred to as bottom fermenting. In contrast, ale strains are ...
In 1996, Saccharomyces cerevisiae was the first single-celled, eukaryotic organism to have its entire genome sequenced. This sequencing helped confirm the nearly century of work by mycologists and enologists in identifying different strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae that are used in beer, bread and winemaking.
Vaughan-Martini, Cardinali and Martini (1996) used 24 strains of killer yeast from 13 species to find a resistance signature for each of 13 strains of S. cerevisiae which were used as starters in wine-making. [20] It was shown that sensitivity to toxins could be used to discriminate between 91 strains of Candida albicans and 223 other Candida ...
AH109 is a strain of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) used in biological research for two-hybrid screening. The strain is sold commercially by Clontech [1] and is used as a partner with strain Y187 in mating assays. [2]
