Products such as bread, beer, wine and cider depend on microscopic living cells that develop in a fungus. These are called Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A number of varieties of Saccharomyces cerevisiae exist in nature and are adapted to different kinds of fermentation. Yeast is said to have originated in the times of the Egyptians. The boiled grain liquid was used by the Egyptian bakers who placed it in a cool place and used when the formation of gas bubbles turned it into a frothing liquid.
[...] The yeast must not be dissolved in a liquid component, as this will cause a release of unnecessary carbon dioxide. Cooking: The dough must not be allowed to stand for too long before cooking in order to prevent excessive reaction. III - Experiment: 1. To study the manufacture of carbon dioxide with baking powder and natural yeast: Materials needed: A glass vessel, hot water, and baking powder. Method: Pour hot water into the glass vessel and sprinkle yeast on it. [...]
[...] Yeast should never be allowed to come in direct contact with the salt Fermentation: To explain the principle of fermentation, we will study the process of fermentation of bread. It is a natural and spontaneous phenomenon that occurs when yeast is mixed with flour and water. Yeasts are micro-organisms in a single cell which proliferate when they are in contact with specific compounds such as maltose or glucose. From these nutrients, yeast synthesizes protein molecules and various other components, which then divide into two new cells identical to the first. [...]
[...] Interpretation When yeast cells are placed in a salt solution, the concentration of the external environment increases and become greater than the concentration inside the cells. Consequently, the osmotic pressure increases and the vacuole lose water and shrink. The plasma membrane follows the movement of the vacuole and consequently, the cell shrinks, and its shape and cellular structures are altered. The cell loses its functions. Most cells are killed by salt and disappear. Conclusion Sodium chloride (salt) kills virtually all yeasts. [...]
[...] Using centrifuges the yeast is separated from the mash by the process of washing and spinning. The cream that is formed by spinning is refrigerated and stored. The process of filtration is used to remove excess water. Yeast is partially dewatered in an extruder where it is formatted before being cut into blocks weighing 500 grams. It is then packed, wrapped, placed in boxes and stored in a cold room at a temperature of How to store yeast? Yeast is a living product that must be nurtured so that it retains its qualities. [...]
[...] Here the aluminum salt acts to increase the bubble size and therefore reduce the dough The biological action of salt on yeast: Materials needed: A light microscope, two cups, and a micro pipette. Products: Yeast cells, a solution of NaCl concentration. Method: On one slide, place a drop of yeast solution dissolved in distilled water using a micro pipette. This will be the control slide. On the second slide, place a drop of yeast solution dissolved in distilled water and a drop of solution of sodium chloride. [...]
