Biotechnology Letters Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Changes in polyols contents of must after fermentation with different yeasts were determined by gas-liquid chromatography (GLC). A decrease in sorbitol, mannitol and inositol as well as the formation of erythritol, arabitol and xylitol were observed in all samples. Maximum decrease in sorbitol and mannitol was detected when flor yeast was employed.
