The sugar assimilation property enables us to determine the ability of yeast to use a specific sugar/carbohydrate as a sole source of carbon.
Yeast nitrogen base (YNB) medium with 2% (w/v) specific selected sugar (s) like glucose, maltose, ribose, fructose, xylose, cellobiose, dextrose, mannose, starch, sucrose, lactose and galactose were used for determination of yeast sugar assimilation property on the basis of biomass formation (Marinho et al. 2010).
Cholesterol assimilation property appears to show variability across the species and strains.
A novel sp. of Kodamaea, K. kakuduensis, isolated from Australian Hibiscus flower, was reported to be a good glucose fermenter with weak xylose assimilation properties [21].
Our analyses suggest that MT1 possesses different sugar uptake and assimilation properties than S288c.
Our analyses suggest that K7 possesses different sugar uptake and assimilation properties from those of S288C.
Also, a number of gene families are clearly enriched in pathogenic species of Candida including those encoding classes of cell wall proteins, iron assimilation properties and major facilitator and other transporters (Butler et al., 2009).
Single leaf gas exchange properties (CO2 assimilation rate and stomatal conductance) and optical properties, direct and diffuse radiation incident on the canopy, and photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) reflected and transmitted by the canopy were measured at regular intervals throughout the growing season.
In this study, we explore the potential use of glider data assimilation to control some properties of the ocean state estimation, chosen here to be Solomon Sea thermohaline misfits due to an erroneous tidal-mixing parameterization.
The properties tested in this study include ability to survive at pH 2.5, resistance to bile salts (0.3% oxgall), viability in the presence of pepsin-pancreatin, ability to deconjugate bile salts, cholesterol assimilation, and surface hydrophobicity properties.
For this purpose, these strains (21 Lactobacillus plantarum, 11 Pediococcus ethanolidurans, and 7 Lactobacillus brevis) were tested for the ability to survive at pH 2.5, resistance to bile salts, viability in the presence of pepsin-pancreatin, ability to deconjugate bile salts, cholesterol assimilation, and surface hydrophobicity properties.
