Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An object of the present invention is to provide a sucrose unassimilating yeast which has a flocculation ability and has much of a proven performance of food production. The present invention pertains to a yeast strain expressed by accession number: NITE BP-1587.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain NITE BP-1587. 2. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain according to claim 1 , wherein the strain is employed for a method of producing sugar and ethanol comprising a step of fermenting sugar liquid derived from a plant with yeast. 3. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain according to claim 1 , wherein the strain is employed for a method of producing sugar and ethanol comprising steps of: removing non-sugar components contained in sugar liquid derived from a plant to clarify the sugar liquid; and adding yeast to the clarified sugar liquid to carry out ethanol fermentation at a given temperature under an anaerobic condition for an appropriate length of time. 4. A method of producing sugar and ethanol comprising a step of fermenting sugar liquid derived from a plant with the Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain according to claim 1 . 5. A method of producing sugar and ethanol comprising steps of: removing non-sugar components contained in sugar liquid derived from a plant to clarify the sugar liquid; and adding the strain according to claim 1 to the clarified sugar liquid to carry out ethanol fermentation at a given temperature under an anaerobic condition for an appropriate length of time.
