The Phaff Yeast Culture Collection: Historical Overview, Knowledge Gaps & Recent Discoveries for Fat Production Using Oleaginous Yeast
Time: 11:30 am
day: Conference Day One
Details:
- Diving into the study of oleaginous (high oil) yeasts and their history over the past 100 years to acknowledge their use for ingredient application
- Closing the knowledge gap for yeast species to identify their fat composition, nutrient range, stress tolerance, growth profile, and structural changes with cultivation conditions
- Leveraging the immense biodiversity in the Phaff Yeast Culture Collection to demonstrate cultivation conditions that replicate animal-derived oils
