Essential knowledge for fermentation industry:what is inactive yeast?

1. Types of inactive yeast in fermentation industry

(1)Baker's yeast

Baker’s inactive yeast, which was developed by Angel, is rich composition of protein, nucleic acid and growth factors from primary grown Saccharomyces cerevisiae

(2)Brewer's yeast

Brewer's yeast is produced from spent yeast in brewing factory. It contains less nutrition and more risks of contamination from other bacteria due to it is a kind of unstable by-product under longer fermentation time which cause inhomogeneous age of yeast cells.

(3)Candida

Rich in nucleic acid and mainly used for animal feed materials, generally not for food and lack of certifications

2. Composition of yeast

(1)Protein:45-55%,complete and reasonable profile of amino acids, good for microorganisms assimilation

(2)Nucleic acid:RNA content 6-8%

(3)Vitamin B group

(4)Carbohydrates:Glucan and mannosan in yeast cell wall; Trehalose in cytoplasm

(5)Essential elements:K,Ca,P,Mg

(6)Physiological substances: Coenzyme A, Coenzyme I, Coenzyme Q, ,Cytochrome C, Thromboplastin, Glutathione, Lecithin, Ergosterol, etc.

3. Function of inactive yeast in fermentation industry

(1)Fast or slow release nitrogen source:in bacterial fermentation, such as Bacillus subtilis fermentation, inactive yeast is a kind of slow release nitrogen source and mainly for fermentation stage. But in Actinomycetes and molds fermentation, inactive yeast is a kind of fast release nitrogen source and mainly for seed culture stage.

(2)Adjust morphology of filamentous bacteria and fungus:different inactive yeast can makes hypha stretch and loose, or cluster depends on different application.

(3)Replace some cheap animal origin peptones: in some Actinomycetes and molds fermentation, inactive yeast could be used to replace some cheap animal origin peptone.
