Growing Torula Yeast (Candida Utilis) For Food Grade Fatty Acids, Zachary Christman
Growing Torula Yeast (Candida Utilis) For Food Grade Fatty Acids, Zachary Christman
Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
The focus of this article is the cultivation of a food grade yeast for the production of fatty acids without the restrictions of climate or growing season. Torula yeast (Candida utilis) was selected since it can grow on a wide variety of culture media and has over 60 years of use in the food industry. The fatty acid composition of Candida utilis grown on two different media are presented in this article; the first example using completely synthetic media and another using distiller’s vinasse. Also, the effect of different culturing conditions on the percentage of various fatty acids will be …
A Multidisciplinary Approach To Food Safety Evaluation: Hummus Spoilage And Microbial Analysis Of Kitchen Surfaces In Residential Child Care Institutions (Rcci) In Massachusetts, U.S.A., Elsina E. Hagan
Masters Theses 1911 - February 2014
Food borne illnesses continues to be a public health challenge in the United States (U.S.); an estimated 9.4 million incident cases occurred in 2011.
