Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the discharge-associated pa- rameters of DBD for the purpose of maximizing the ethanol yield achieved by DBD-treated S. cerevisiae. According to single factor experiments, a mathematical model was established using Box-Behnken central composite experiment design, with plasma exposure time, power supply volt- age, and exposed-sample volume as impact factors and ethanol yield as the response. This was followed by response surface analysis. Optimal experimental parameters for plasma discharge- induced enhancement in ethanol yield were plasma exposure time of 1 rain, power voltage of 26 V, and an exposed sample volume of 9 mL. Under these conditions, the resulting yield of ethanol was 0.48 g/g, representing an increase of 33% over control.展开更多

Microsatellites have been widely used as the molecular marker to classify and identify S. cerevisiae strains, analyze genetic relationships among strains, and reveal genetic diversity of S. cerevisiae populations. In this paper, 25 key microsatellites of S. cerevisiae from 44 industrial yeast strains are investigated in the medium withconcentration gradients of acetic acid. Based on the analysis of correlations between the key microsatellite loci repeat numbers and acid-tolerance of the strains, the allele size of 4P14 a and 10P13 is positively related to acid-tolerance(p ? 0.05), the allele size of AT-X, 4P1 a and 10P8 are significantly negatively related to acid-tolerance(p ? 0.01). The above results provide informations on the molecular biodiversity of S. cerevisiae strains and can be a theoretical guidance for molecular marker assisted selection.展开更多
