TITLE:
The Mating Of Different Strains of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae From Different Types of Fruits Samples

INTRODUCTION:
Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a yeast that are microorganism with a single cell. They have genetic content which is contained within a nucleus. This classified them as eucaryotic miccrorganism different with bacteria. Bacteria do not have nucleus and was classified as procaryotic organism. Yeast commonly found on flowers, soils, plants and also fruits. Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is eucaryotic microorganism and also can be used in bioethanol production. Microbial ethanol is important today in increasing energy and fuel. In this practical, the production of yeasts for ethanol production from hexose and pentose sugars were …show more content…

The empty weighing boat was placed into weighing balance and tarred it. 3.2 g of yeast extract, 4.0 g of peptone, 4.0 g of dextrose were weighted and added to the scott bottle that contain distilled water. The solution was mixed and dissolved. The solution was placed into autoclave and has been autoclaved at 121o C for 2 hours. After autoclaved, the solution has been cooled for 10 minutes. The solution was poured carefully into the sterile plates. The broth have been labelled and sealed with parafilm and stored in oven properly. The petri dish was keep in the chiller for the next …show more content…

Firstly, mating of Saccharomyces cerevisiae using YEPD agar media on the plate. Five plates were divided by two and were labelled as MO1, OM2, OM3, OP1, OP2, OP3, PM1, PM2, PM3 and C (M for mango sample, P for papaya sample, O for orange sample and C for control). The colony of the subculture sample O was streaked on the plate OM1 and followed by colony of subculture sample M. Then, this technique was repeated with different colony on subculture sample O and M for OM2 and OM3. The similar tecnhique was used for OP1, OP2, OP3, PM1, PM2, PM3 and

I predicted that the control would have a higher alcohol content than the experimental since beta and alpha amylase are working together. Since only Alpha-Amylase worked in the experimental, there was probably bigger carbohydrates present in the flask, therefore, there was a lower alcohol percentage since yeast can’t digest bigger sugars. b. My results also matched my prediction regarding mean reducing carbohydrate levels during the mashing process between the control and the experimental. My prediction stated that there would be less reducing carbohydrate ends in the experimental, which was proven in the data table.

Chromatograms where made for the known FD&C and for the three Kool-Aid samples. The retention factor for each dye was calculated. F or each of the Kool-Aid flavors, 2.0 g was weighed out from the packet and 5mL of water was mixed in with them each. mL of 0.1% NaCl solution was added to 100mL of bottled water. The six chromatography strips

For example, maltose is the combination of two α-D-glucose which is found in germinating grain and is formed during the hydrolysis of starch to glucose during digestion. Lactose is the combination of β-D-galactose and α-D-glucose, it is digested by the enzyme lactase. Combination α-D-glucose with β-D-fructose will form a sucrose which it can be found in sugar cane and sugar beets. The invert sugar is produced by the hydrolysis of sucrose under acidic conditions, which break into glucose and fructose and it is sweeter than sucrose because of the present of fructose. This can be occur in the spread due to it contain acid-containing

Sugar/ glucose is an important carbohydrate that can be made during photosynthesis from water and carbon dioxide, using energy from sunlight. Carbon dioxide is given off as a waste product when energy is released by the breaking down of glucose. This can be used by plant cells in the process of photosynthesis to form new carbohydrates. Yeast is a single-celled fungus that can break down sugars (glucose) to help produce carbon dioxide. Research Question

Effect of Yeast on Temperature on Hydrogen Peroxide Solution in Water Khalid Al Sabeeh Ms. Dobrin 11-G Chemistry HL Jan 5, 2015 Abstract: Within this lab yeast was added to hydrogen peroxide solution in water. Temperature was the factor to be tested. In all trials, the initial and final, when yeast was added temperatures increased by 10˚C respectfully per trial.

Testing for the Presence of Macromolecules in McDonald’s Happy Meals Clayton Wagoner MST Biology White 4 duPont Manual High School Introduction Carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids are organic molecules found in every living organism. These macromolecules are large carbon based structures. The macromolecules are assembled by joining several smaller units, called monomers, together through a chemical reaction called dehydration synthesis. The resulting polymer can be disassembled through the complementary process called hydrolysis.

Joshua Miller 12/18/17 Fermentation Lab report Introduction The term fermentation refers to the chemical breakdown of a substance by bacteria, yeasts, or other microorganisms, typically involving effervescence and the giving off of heat (wikipedia). Sugars are converted to ethyl alcohol when fermentation happens. In this experiment we determined if yeast cells undergo fermentation when placed in a closed flask with no oxygen. Glucose and yeast are mixed together in a closed flask and allowed to incubate for about one hour.

1% glucose, 1% maltose and 1% lactose all progressively get positive results by changing colours to reddish brown at the end of this experiment. In this case the aldehyde functional group that is present in the products (monosaccharides and some disaccharides) in this reaction is able to reduce copper in the presence of alkali and this produces colour changes while converting to an aldose sugar. Honey is made of fructose and glucose which instantly turned brown after the test-tube was placed in the boiling water because of its active aldehyde and carbonyl group. The copper (II) sulphate present in the Benedict’s solution reacts with electrons from the aldehyde group which results in a redox reaction to from cuprous oxide, a red brown precipitate that seen in all of the above mentioned solutions (Hill, 1982). Beer also gave positive results because it contains aldehydes and ketones (i.e. acetone, trans-2-butenal, furfual) during its beer production process where the sugars are converted through fermentation (Hill, 1982).

There are several reactions occur when there is plenty of oxygen present. Then the energy released is used by the yeast for growth and activity. However, when the oxygen supply is limited, the yeast can only partially breakdown the sugar. Alcohol and carbon dioxide are produced in this process known as alcoholic fermentation. The fermentation occur when the carbon dioxide produced in these reactions.

Candide was the first French satire published in French by the French writer Voltaire, who is known for both his enlightenment and his memory in writing. Produced work in every literary form, and his writings gave a reflection of freedom of expression, and freedom of religion. In his novel, he has been used as a sarcastic satire of Voltaire 's philosophy and that sequencing the story in such a way that turned it into a comedy. The novel full of adventures filled frank journey around the world. Candide, which is very positive, have a positive attitude towards life, believing that the world is amazing as this idea given to him by his teacher Pangloss while he was a youth.

For example, fermentation occurs in yeast in order to gain energy by transforming sugar into alcohol. Fermentation is also used by bacteria, they convert carbohydrates into lactic acid. Ethanol fermentation is done by yeast and certain bacteria, when pyruvate is separated into ethanol and carbon dioxide. Ethanol fermentation has a net chemical equation: C6H12O6 (glucose) > 2C2H5OH (ethanol) + 2CO2 (carbon dioxide). This process of ethanol fermentation is used in the making of wine, bread, and beer.

Another critical problem with sample processing and analysis is cold settling the wild yeast. After collecting berries from the valley floor, interns cold settle berries at 8 degrees Celsius for 48 hours. They also cold settle berries harvested from the hillside for 20 hours. However if the temperature is too low, the yeast would be "cold shocked"; although low temperatures may help to preserve the aroma but it will slow the activity rate of yeasts, thus resulting in the lag phase and fermentation activity will be stuck. When fermentation is stuck, microorganism (yeast) growth rate will be reduced and they will minimally consume sugar to convert them to ethanol.
