    Yeast Sugar Metabolism looks at the biomechanics, genetics, biotechnology and applications of yeast sugar. The yeast Saccharomyces cereisiae has played a central role in the evolution of microbiology biochemistry and genetics, in addition to its use of a technical microbe for the production of alcoholic beverages and leavening of dough.
