- Galactose and Fructose are shown to be

two of the best fermenting sugars.

ECHINOCANDIN
Benefit Alcohol industry:
fermentation by yeast leads to
the formation of ethyl alcohol.
F u n fact Baking industry:
fluffiness of the breads and pastries
known as brewer's or baker's yeast. It due to the formation of carbon dioxide
during fermentation.
derives its name from the Latinized Greek Bioethanol production:
meaning “sugar fungus” because it Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the common
converts sugars and starches into microbes employed in ethanol production
due to its high ethanol productivity, high
alcohol and carbon dioxide during the
ethanol tolerance and ability of fermenting
fermentation process. wide range of sugars.
