Abstract: | The tolerance of sol-gel immobilised and free Saccharomyces cerevisiae to ethanol was studied. The effects of ethanol preincubation time showed that the specific death velocity decreased from 2×105 c.f.u. min–1 for free cells to 2×104 c.f.u. min–1 for immobilised cells thus indicating that immobilised yeast was far less sensitive to the ethanol damage. The specific glucose consumption of immobilised and free cells on a per cell basis was 3×10–12 g cell–1 h–1 and 9×10–12 g cell–1 h–1, respectively. |
