Saccharomyces cerevisiae and grape juice are 'natural companions' and make a happy
wine marriage. However, this relationship can be enriched by allowing 'wild'non …

Abstract Background Probiotic yeasts (PYs) as promising cell factories and nutraceutical
carriers have several pivotal potentials including health-promoting and bio-therapeutic …

Background Biofilms are microorganisms community embedded in the self-secreted
extracellular polymeric substances, which can provide microbes with strong tolerance and …

Microbial cell surface display technology, which relies on genetically fusing heterologous
target proteins to the cell wall through fusion with cell wall anchor proteins, has emerged as …

Culture medium heterogeneity is inherent in industrial bioreactors. The loss of mixing
efficiency in a large-scale bioreactor yields to the formation of concentration gradients …

Regulated cellular aggregation is an essential process for development and healing in
many animal tissues. In some animals and a few distantly related unicellular species …

Biocatalysts, especially enzymes, have the ability to catalyze reactions with high product
selectivity, utilize a broad range of substrates, and maintain activity at low temperature and …

The yeast Kloeckera apiculata strain 34-9 is an antagonist with biological control activity
against postharvest diseases of citrus fruit. In a previous study it was demonstrated that K …

Due to the unique advantages comparing with traditional free enzymes and chemical
catalysis, whole-cell biocatalysts have been widely used to catalyze reactions effectively …

This study investigates the behaviour of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains, in order to obtain
insight into the intraspecies competition taking place in mixed populations of this species …
