Title: | The use of fluorescent flow cytometry to evaluate the inactivation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae by sequential application of ultrsound (20kHz) and heat | Authors: | Wordon, Brett Arthur | Keywords: | Yeast fungi -- Biotechnology;Saccharomyces cerevisiae -- Biotechnology;Flow cytometry -- Biotechnology | Issue Date: | 2009 | Publisher: | Cape Peninsula University of Technology | Abstract: | The primary aim of this study was to establish the effects of both cavitation, (20 KHZ), and heat (55°C or 60•C) on Saccharomyces cerevisiae GC210 (MATa lys2) suspended in physiological saline. Fluorescent flow cytometry was used to determine the effects of moist heat and acoustic cavitation on S. cerevisiae cells. Results from this study could be used as a guide for use by the food industry for the combined use of heat and sonication to disinfect various solutions contaminated with S. cerevisiae. | Description: | Thesis (MTech (Food Technology)--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2009 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11838/828 |
