La irrigación con levaduras incrementa el contenido nutricional del forraje verde hidropónico de maíz / Yeast irrigation enhances the nutritional content in hydroponic green maize fodder

El objetivo del presente estudio fue evaluar el efecto de la irrigación con las levaduras Debaryomyces hansenii var. Fabry, Yarowia lipolytica YIBCS002, Yarowia lipolytica var. BCS y Candida pseudointermedia sobre el contenido nutricional final del forraje verde hidropónico de maíz (Zea mays L. ), al ser efectuada en diferentes etapas de crecimiento de aquel (fase semilla-plántula o fase plántula-planta 20 cm), o bien durante todo el cultivo. Todas las levaduras incrementaron el contenido de proteína cruda, lípidos, cenizas, humedad y energía bruta, independientemente de la etapa de crecimiento del forraje en las que fueron aplicadas. El porcentaje de electrólitos (Na, K, Cl, sulfatos, Ca y Mg) varió en función de la levadura aplicada; D. hansenii incrementó todos los electrólitos, excepto el P. Se concluye que la adición de levaduras del género Debaryomyces, Candida y Yarowia en la solución de riego de sistemas hidropónicos mejora el contenido de nutrientes del forraje verde. Esta práctica puede contribuir a la generación de cultivos de valor comercial en espacios limitados

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of irrigation with yeasts (Debaryomyces hansenii var. Fabry, Yarowia lipolytica YIBCS002, Yarowia lipolytica var. BCS and Candida pseudointermedia) on the final nutritional content of hydroponic green maize fodder (Zea Zea mays L.), applied at different fodder growth stages (1. seed-seedling stage, 2. seedling-plant 20 cm, 3. during all the culture). Irrespective of the fodder growth stages at which they were applied, all yeasts tested enhanced the content of raw protein, lipids, ash, moisture and energy. The percentage of electrolytes (Na, K, Cl, sulphates, Ca and Mg) showed different responses depending on the kind of yeast applied; D. hansenii exhibited the highest increment in all electrolytes, except for phosphorous. We conclude that the addition of yeasts belonging to the genera Debaryomyces, Candida and Yarowia to the irrigation solution of hydroponic systems enhances the nutrient content of green fodder. This kind of irrigation can be applied to generate high commercial value cultures in limited spaces.

Levedura seca integral na alimentação de vacas lactantes / Dry yeast for lactating dairy cows

Os efeitos da inclusão de levedura seca de cana-de-açúcar (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) na dieta de vacas lactantes foram avaliados com base no fornecimento de quatro dietas constituídas de diferentes níveis de substituição do farelo de soja pela levedura de cana-de-açúcar (0,00; 0,33; 0,67 e 1,00kg/kg de MS). O delineamento utilizado foi o quadrado latino 4 × 4. Não houve efeito dos tratamentos sobre o consumo de MS, MO, EE, FDNi e NDT, porém ocorreu redução linear no consumo de PB e FDNcp e aumento do consumo de CNF. Diferenças estatísticas não foram verificadas para os coeficientes de digestibilidade aparente da MS, MO, PB, CNF e NDT; no entanto os coeficientes do FDNcp e do EE decresceram linearmente. Não foi observado efeito sobre a produção e eficiência de síntese microbiana, utilização dos componentes nitrogenados e produção e composição do leite. Conclui-se que a levedura seca pode substituir 100% o farelo de soja na alimentação de vacas lactantes.

The effects of the inclusion of sugar cane dry yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) in dairy cows feeding were evaluated based on the provision of four different diets with increasing proportions of sugar cane dry yeast (0.00; 0.33; 0.67 and 1.00kg/kg of DM). The design adopted for this research was the latin square, 4 × 4. It was observed that the levels of yeast inclusion did not affect the intake of DM, OM, EE, NDFi and TDN. However, the CP and NDFcp intake decreased linearly, whereas the NFC intake increased linearly with the increasing levels of yeast. No effect on the digestibility coefficient of DM, OM, CP, NDFcp and NCF was observed. Nevertheless, the EE digestibility coefficient linearly decreased with the yeast inclusion in the experimental diets. There was no treatment effect on the production and efficiency of microbial synthesis, usage of nitrogenous components, as well as milk production and composition. It was concluded that the dried yeast can fully replace the soybean meal in diets of dairy cows.

Evaluación del efecto de diferentes cepas de levadura (Montrachet, K1-V1116, EC-1118, 71B-1122 y IVC-GRE ®) y clarificantes sobre los atributos sensoriales del vino de naranja criolla (Citrus sinensis) / Evaluation of effect of various strains of yeast (Montrachet, K1-V1116, EC-1118, 71B-1122 y IVC-GRE ®) and clearer on the sensory attributes orange wine (Citrus sinensis)

En este trabajo se evaluó el efecto de diferentes cepas de levadura (Montrachet, K1-V1116, EC-1118, 71B-1122 y IVC-GRE ®) sobre los atributos sensoriales del vino de naranja. Estos atributos fueron medidos utilizando la escala modificada de UC Davis. En una prueba de ordenamiento para determinar el mejor tratamiento de clarificación se determinó que la gelatina por sí sola no causa efecto sobre el atributo apariencia general, la combinación de la gelatina y la microfiltración tienen un efecto positivo sobre la apariencia del vino de naranja. Los cinco vinos tratados con diferentes levaduras presentaron diferencias significativas sobre la puntuación total, acidez total, sabor y calidad en general. En términos del efecto de las levaduras, la evaluación sensorial realizada a los vinos mostró que el de naranja con la levadura K1-V1116 fue el que sobresalió en términos de puntuación en los promedios de casi todos los atributos analizados por el panel sensorial.

In this Wort was evaluated the effect of different types of strains of yeast (Montrachet, K1-V1116, EC-1118, 71B-1122 y IVC-GRE) over the sensorial attributes of orange wines were also studied. These attributes were measured in a modified scale of UC Davis. By using an order test in order to know the best cleared treatment, it was determined that gelatin by itself does not cause any effect over the general quality attribute, but the combination of gelatin and microfiltration, cause a positive effect over the orange wine appearance. The five wines treated with different yeasts presented significant differences on individual scores, total acidy, flavor and general quality of the UC Davis scale. The sensorial evaluation of wines showed that the yeast K1-V1116 produced the best rated orange wine. This wine was significantly different over many attributes when compared with the other wines evaluated by the sensorial panel.
