Kluyveromyces fragilis KCTC 7260 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae KCTC 7904, which both grew well in pear marc extract, were selected and their growth profiles and physiological functionalities were determined. Both of the selected yeasts established maximal growth by 20 hr of cultivation at 30℃ in pear marc extract. The cell-free extracts showed high antihypertensive angiotensin I-converting enzyme inhibitory activity of 68.9% and 52.1%, respectively. The extracts also displayed 9.2 U/mL and 12.0 U/mL of protease activity, respectively.
Growth profiles of Candida krusei KCTC 7213, Torulopsis sphaerica KCTC 7138 and Zygosaccharomyces rouxii KCCM 12066 in pear marc extract were determined. Candida krusei KCTC 7213 showed the highest growth in 20 hr cultivation at 30 o C, whereas both of Torulopsis sphaerica KCTC 7138 and Zygosaccharomyces rouxii KCCM 12066 established maximal growth by 25 hr of cultivation at 30 o C in pear marc extract. However, all of yeasts showed lower growth in pear marc extracts rather than those of YEPD medium.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
