Copper Tolerance and Biosorption of Saccharomyces cerevisiae during Alcoholic Fermentation.

At high levels, copper in grape mash can inhibit yeast activity and cause stuck fermentations. Wine yeast has limited tolerance of copper and can reduce copper levels in wine during fermentation. This study aimed to understand copper tolerance of wine yeast and establish the mechanism by which yeast...
