- Abstract
Most of research on wine microbiology has concentrated on Saccharomyces yeasts for development of starter cultures, especially on Sacch. cerevisiae. As the importance of the role of S. cerevisiae in winemaking has been established, the number of wine yeast strains available in the world market for use as winemaking starters grew in the last years. The upstream process of producing Sacch. cerevisiae biomass on a culture medium based on sugar was performed by testing different sources of inorganic and organic nitrogen (yeast extract and monoammonium phosphate) in submerged fermentations using a Biostat B plus bioreactor (4L working volume). The upstream parameters have been monitored on-line (oxygen flow; pH around 4.35; temperature 300C; stirring rate 250 rpm) and off-line (total soluble dry matter; pH). The biomass obtained after the downstream process has been dried through freeze-drying. Through the combination of two carbon sources as yeast extract (0.7%) and monoammonium phosphate 10.71 g/L dry cell weight (DCW) has been obtained, compared with 9.6 g/L DCW in the case of the fermentation without monoammonium phosphate. From the economic reasons, the monoammonium phosphate as an inorganic nitrogen form has been excluded from the experiments. Finally, the higher content of dry yeast biomass (14.43 g/L DCW) was obtained when 11% yeast extract as the only nitrogen source has been added at the fermentation media.
