High efficiency alcohol tolerant Saccharomyces isolates of Phoenix dactylifera for bioconversion of sugarcane juice [1]

Various indigenous strains of Saccharomyces isolated from datepalm sap were evaluated for alcohol dehydrogenase enzyme activity, ethanol production and alcohol tolerance limits and compared with standard culture of S. cerevisiae. Alcoholic contents in juice samples fermented with different yeast strains varied considerably as determined by GLC. Yeast cultures showed varied in vitro ethanol tolerance.
