Electron. j. biotechnol; 17 (4), 2014
Background Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the main microorganism responsible for alcoholic fermentation. In this process, the consumption of nitrogen is of great importance since it is found in limiting quantities and its deficiency produces sluggish and/or stuck fermentations generating large economic loss...
