Article Synopsis
- A model was created to explore how temperature and initial substrate concentration affect ethanol concentration using the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
- Regression analysis was conducted with existing data to build a predictive model for ethanol concentration.
- The model indicated optimal conditions for higher ethanol production are found at temperatures of 28°C to 32°C and an initial substrate concentration near 200 g/L, where higher temperatures and concentrations beyond 200 g/L negatively impact ethanol levels.
Beer is a beverage that contains gluten and cannot be consumed by people with celiac disease. In this context, the enzyme prolyl endoprotease (PEP) can be used to reduce the gluten content in beer. The present study aimed to produce the PEP from Aspergillus sp.
