Yeast Ingredients Market Pegged for Robust Expansion During 2015 - 2021
Verfasser: yogesh on Tuesday, 4 December 2018Yeasts are chemoorganotrophs, as they use organic compounds to source energy and do not require sunlight for growth or survival. Yeasts are usually unicellular; although some species may be multi-cellular. The size of yeast depends on the species. Yeasts usually measure 3 to 4 µm in diameter. However, certain yeasts reach up to 40 µm in diameter. Yeasts reproduce asexually through mitosis (a process, in which, the chromosomes in a cell nucleus separates themselves to form two identical sets of chromosomes). Yeasts are natural ingredients and they are used as one of the primary food ingredients in the food processing industry. Yeasts are used to provide taste and flavor to processed food. Due to high nutrient content, yeasts are used as taste boosters for various processed food such as canned food, baked food, snacks, sauces, and dairy products.
