Alcoholic Fermentation — CHEMICAL Technique | Foodgeist

What science says

process mechanism

“That is why, in the last two decades, many researchers have attempted to model yeast fermentation of grape juice.”

alcoholic fermentation → is modeled → yeast fermentation of grape juice

Alcoholic Fermentation Modelling: Current State and Perspectives DOI →1999DOI

process mechanism

“Filamentous fungi (Rhizopus, Rhizomucor, Aspergillus and other genera), yeasts (Saccharomyces, Candida, Hansenula and other genera) and bacteria (acetic acid bacteria, lactic acid bacteria and Bacillus spp.), are considered to be the functional microbiota, responsible for the formation of a range of lytic enzymes, formation of substrates for alcoholic fermentation and formation of flavour compounds.”

Daqu → responsible for → formation of lytic enzymes, substrates for alcoholic fermentation, and flavour compounds

Daqu- A Traditional Chinese Liquor Fermentation Starter DOI →2011DOI

compound effect

“Botrytis infection of grape caused the fermentative retardation during alcoholic fermentation because the main metabolites responsible for the differentiation are fermentative products.”

Botrytis infection → causes → fermentative retardation during alcoholic fermentation

Metabolic Influence of Botrytis cinerea Infection in Champagne Base Wine DOI →2011DOI

process mechanism

“Yeasts are predominant in wine and carry out the alcoholic fermentation”

yeasts → carry out → alcoholic fermentation

Winemaking Biochemistry and Microbiology: Current Knowledge and Future Trends DOI →2005DOI

technique parameter

“In mixed culture, Saccharomyces florentinus supported better survival of Lactobacillus hilgardii and a significant increase in lactic acid production; at the same time, the growth and alcoholic fermentation of S. florentinus were drastically reduced.”

mixed culture → reduce → growth and alcoholic fermentation of S. florentinus
