The ability of wine yeasts fermenting by the addition of exogenous biotin
Abstract
Research is focused on the increase of the field of obtaining the wine yeast, under physical and chemical conditions. Study of different influences on yeast production is very important for the promotion of new cultivation methods for increasing both the fermentative and conservation capacity.
The present article deals with the study of biotin activity on the biotechnological properties of the wine yeast.
Our results showed that addition of biotin can offer beneficial conditions for improving the fermentation, being also an important factor of stability for wine yeast Saccharomyces ellipsoideus.
