Growth and autolysis of the kefir yeast Kluyveromyces marxianus in lactate culture

Abstract Kluyveromyces marxianus is a yeast that could be identified from kefir and can use a broad range of substrates, such as glucose and lactate, as carbon sources. The lactate produced in kefir culture can be a substrate for K. marxianus. However, the complexity of the kefir microbiota makes th...
