Sugar Utilization by Yeast During Fermentation Journal of IndustriaI Microbiology, 4 (I989) 315-324 Elsevier 315 SIM00189 Sugar utilization by yeast during fermentation Tony D'Amore, Inge Russell and Graham G. Stewart Research Department, Labatt Brewing Company Limited, London, Ontario, Canada Received 8 August 1988 Accepted 16 December 1988 Key words: Sugar uptake; Yeast; Brewer's wort SUMMARY When glucose and fructose are fermented separately, the uptake profiles indicate that both sugars are utilized at similar rates. However, when fermentations are conducted in media containing an equal concentra- tion of glucose and fructose, glucose is utilized at approximately twice the rate of fructose. The preferential uptake of glucose also occurred when sucrose, which was first rapidly hydrolyzed into glucose and fructose by the action of the enzyme invertase, was employed as a substrate. Similar results were observed in the fer- mentation of brewer's wort and wort containing 30% sucrose and 30% glucose as adjuncts. In addition, the high levels of glucose in the wort exerted severe catabolite repression on maltose utilization in the Saccharo~ myces uvarum (carlsbergensis) brewing strain. Kinetic analysis of glucose and fructose uptake in Saccharo- myces cerevisiae revealed a Km of 1.6 mM for glucose and 20 mM for fructose. Thus, the yeast strain has a higher affinity for glucose than fructose. Growth on glucose or fructose had no repressible effect on the uptake of either sugar. In addition, glucose inhibited fructose uptake by 60% and likewise fructose inhibited glucose uptake by 40%. These results indicate that glucose and fructose share the same membrane transport compo- nents. INTRODUCTION transport systems [2,3].

The majority of the polysaccharides currently employed in the food industry are derived from plants and sea- weeds. Recently, microbial polysaccharides have emerged as an important set of biothickeners for foods. These bio- polymers have overcome to great extent the flaws associated with the plants and seaweeds polysaccharides. This rela- tively new class of biopolymers has unique rheological properties because of their potential of forming very viscous solutions at low concentrations and pseudoplastic nature. This review deals with the current applications of these micro- bial biopolymers in the food industry with a special focus on the commonly used important exopolysaccharides in this area.

  • SACCHARIDES (Liquid Chromatography)
    SACCH.03-1 SACCHARIDES (Liquid Chromatography) PRINCIPLE A corn syrup solution is passed through a metal ion-modified cation exchange column. The individual sugars are separated by molecular exclusion and ligand exchange. The eluted sugars are detected using a differential refractometer and the resulting peaks are quantified against an appropriate standard with the aid of a modern electronic integrator. SCOPE The method is applicable to all corn syrup, including those containing fructose, corn syrups and starch hydrolyzates prepared by acid and/or enzymes conversion (Note 1). SPECIAL APPARATUS 1. Liquid Chromatograph: A liquid chromatograph capable of accommodating a 22-31 cm temperature-controlled column and equipped with a constant flow pulseless pump and a differential refractometer detector with attenuation capabilities. 2. Integrator 3. Chromatograph Columns: Prepacked cation exchange columns (calcium or silver form) are recommended. These columns are macroreticular polystyrene sulfonate divinylbenzene, 2-8% crosslinked, 8-25 µm particle size. Examples of acceptable columns are: Bio-Rad Aminex HPX-87C for separating DP 1- DP 4 saccharides and Aminex HPX-42C or HPX-42A for separating DP 1-DP 7 saccharides. 4. Guard Column: Protect the analytical column described above by inserting a deionizing precolumn available from chromatographic column manufacturers.

Chromatographic Column Heater: A thermostatically-controlled metal block heater accommodating two columns capable of operating at temperatures up to 95 °C ( ± 0.5 C). 6. Sample Injector: Use a loop injector having a capacity of 10-50 µL. Rheodyne-type, or equivalent, is recommended.

  • Malabsorption of Carbohydrates: Lactose Intolerance
    230 PHYSIOLOGY CASES AND PROBLEMS Case 40 Malabsorption of Carbohydrates: Lactose Intolerance Candice Nguyen is a 21-year-old student at a prestigious engineering school. During the past 6 months, she experienced several bouts of severe abdominal bloating and cramps, followed by diarrhea. At first, she thought these episodes were caused by the stress of her demanding aca- demic program. However, she noticed that the symptoms occurred approximately 1 hour after she drank milk or ate ice cream. On a visit home, Candice mentioned the symptoms to her mother, who exclaimed, "Don't you know that your father and I have never been able to drink milk?" Candice was examined by her primary care physician, who found her to be in excellent health. Because Candice's symptoms were temporally related to ingestion of dairy products, the physician ordered a lactose-H 2 breath test, which confirmed that Candice has lactose intoler- ance. Her fecal osmolar gap was measured and was elevated. As further confirmation of the diag- nosis, Candice abstained from dairy products for 1 week and had no episodes of bloating, cramping, or diarrhea. 111/ QUESTIONS 1. How are dietary carbohydrates digested in the gastrointestinal tract? What are the roles of sali- vary, pancreatic, and intestinal mucosal brush border enzymes in carbohydrate digestion? What three monosaccharides are the final products of these digestive steps? 2. How are dietary carbohydrates absorbed from the lumen of the gastrointestinal tract into the blood? Draw a small intestinal epithelial cell that shows the appropriate transporters in the apical and basolateral membranes. 3. Describe the steps involved in the digestion and absorption of lactose.

  • MALTOSE, SUCROSE and D-GLUCOSE
    www.megazyme.com MALTOSE, SUCROSE and D-GLUCOSE ASSAY PROCEDURE K-MASUG 08/18 (*34 Assays of each per Kit) * The number of tests per kit can be doubled if all volumes are halved © Megazyme 2018 INTRODUCTION: Maltose, sucrose and D-glucose are found in most plant and food products. In plant materials D-glucose occurs as a free sugar in sucrose, and in a range of oligosaccharides (galactosyl-sucrose oligosaccharides and fructo-oligosaccharides) and polysaccharides, such as starch and 1,3-1,4-β-D-glucans. Maltose (1,4-α-D-glucobiose) is produced on hydrolysis of starch by α-amylase and β-amylase. In some food products, these three sugars occur in admixture. PRINCIPLE: Maltose is hydrolysed by α-glucosidase (maltase) at pH 6.6 to two molecules of D-glucose (1). This enzyme concurrently hydrolyses sucrose to D-glucose and D-fructose (2). (α-glucosidase) (1) Maltose + H2O 2D-glucose (α-glucosidase) (2) Sucrose + H2O D-glucose + D-fructose Sucrose (but not maltose) is hydrolysed by the enzyme β-fructosidase (invertase) at pH 4.6 to D-glucose and D-fructose (3). (β-fructosidase) (3) Sucrose + H2O D-glucose + D-fructose At pH 7.6, D-glucose is phosphorylated by the enzyme hexokinase (HK) and adenosine-5’-triphosphate (ATP) to glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P) with the simultaneous formation of adenosine-5’-diphosphate (ADP) (4). (HK) (4) D-Glucose + ATP G-6-P + ADP In the presence of the enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6P-DH), G-6-P is oxidised by nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+) to gluconate-6-phosphate with the formation of reduced nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) (5).
