Culture conditions influence biomass and alkali-insoluble cell-wall polysaccharide production in indigenous Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains
Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an important source of yeast biomass and alkali–insoluble cell–wall polysaccharide fractions (AICWP), which may contain substantial β–glucan. In the present study, indigenous yeast isolates from diverse natural sources were screened for biomass formation and AICWP accumulation. Four S....
