Evaluation of Several Yeast Isolates and Zymomonas Strains for Alcohol Production

     Colle, B.D., Garcia, J.C.L., et.al. 1982.  One hundred thirty three yeast isolates from molasses and ‘beer’ samples taken from local alcohol distilleries were purified and evaluated for alcohol production on diluted and nutrient-supplemented sugarcane molasses. Twelve of the isolates were found to have more desirable properties compared to the widely used yeast in Philippines and U.S. distilleries. PROCEEDINGS OF THE PHILIPPINE SUGAR TECHNOLOGISTS.
