Yeast & Fungi Test Kit
Yeasts are unicellular fungi which are used to make bread and other wheat-based products, such as dough and dumplings. Also they are useful in production of alcoholic beverages through fermentation. Almost all species of yeasts & fungi grow on BACTASLYDE & there growth may consist either purely of yeasts or purely of fungi or may be mixed.
Fungi are aerobic & commonly occur in nature, especially in places which are damp, where organic matter and oxygen are present. They produce vast numbers of spores & grow continuously without regards to size and shape. Several fungi are domesticated species that are bred or selected according to their capacity to ferment food without producing harmful toxins.
