Humans have taken advantage of the metabolism in a tiny fungus called yeast to create beer and wine ... and he defined it as respiration without air (Barnett 2000; Pasteur 1876).
Unlike aerobic respiration, oxygen is not necessary for anaerobic respiration to take place. In micro-organisms such as yeast, a uni-cellular (or single cell) fungi, the process of anaerobic ...
Here we demonstrate one facet of its versatility—a technique for inducing ethanol production in yeast, by switching from an aerobic growth phase to an anaerobic steady-state culture. The BioFlo ...
