Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for screening yeasts with high ethanol and low fusel oil yields, and the application of the method to screen yeasts with high ethanol and low fusel oil yields in the production of Chinese Maotai-flavor liquor and its application in food technology and brewing wine industry. It belongs to the technical field of bioengineering. Background technique
[0002] Ethanol is one of the most important and main components in brewing wine. The ethanol content in Chinese liquor is as high as 40%-55% (v / v); in rice wine, it is 14%-20%; in beer, it is 2%-5%. Yeast is the main microorganism that produces ethanol, and it is also an indispensable microorganism in the brewing industry. Therefore, finding high-yielding yeast can optimize the brewing process and reduce production costs, which is of great significance in the brewing industry.
[0003] Fusel oil is a secondary metabolite produced by yeast during brewing fermentation, inclu...
