m-Bromonitrobenzene was reduced to m-bromoaniline with a 86∼91% yield by either baker's yeast (Sigma type I) or glucose and baker's yeast in conjunction with glucose. Nitrosobenzene was reduced to aniline in good yields using baker's yeast(Sigma type I) only.

A novel process was developed to simultaneously produce invertase and yeast extract from baker's yeast using ultrafiltration (UF) and microfiltration (MF) membrane processing. After the extraction of invertase under the optimal condition obtained in this study, invertase was separated from yeast cells using a hollow fiber membrane with a pore size of 0.1 $\mu\textrm{m}$. The resulting permeate containing invertase was concentrated using a hollow fiber membrane with a nominal molecular weight cut-off of 30 kDa. The yeast cell and permeate solutions, which were obtained after MF and UF membrane processing, respectively, were mixed together, and the autolysis was performed at 50$^{\circ}C$ in the presence of 5% (w/v) ethanol and 1% (w/v) NaCl. As a result, the yeast extract and invertase could be simultaneously produced from baker's yeast by this novel process.

- Ethanol production by calcium alginate-immobilized baker's yeast was studied in the continuous shaked-flask reactor (CSFR) using glucose medium as a feed. Immobilized cells were stable at 30~$37^{\circ}C$ and pH 4~8. Fermentation characteristics of immobilized baker's yeast were examined changing the initial glucose concentration employed were 50, 100 and 150 g/l, respectively. It was investigated that the influent glucose concentration and the dilution rate have an influence on the ethanol fermentation characteristics at steady state in continuous culture of immobilized baker's yeast. The optimum conditions for high ethanol productivity and low residual glucose output in ethanol prodution were shown to be 0.2 h ' for the dilution rate and 150 g/l for the influent glucose concentration. The maximum ethanol productivity, ethanol yield, specific growth rate and glucose conversion rate were around 7.12 g/$l\cdot h$, 0.23, 0.366 g/$l\cdot h$ and 78.43, respectively.

In this study, an eco-friendly indigo reduction system(scale up reduction, use of buffer solution, and pH control) using baker's yeast(Saccharomyces cerevisiae) was applied for natural indigo(Polygonum tinctorium) dyeing of Hanji fabric and Hanji-mixture fabric(Hanji/Cotton, Hanji/Silk). The effect of concentration of baker's yeast, repeat dyeing, and bath reuse was investigated in terms of dye uptake indicating reduction power. And the oxidation-reduction potential(ORP) was monitored. We also evaluated color properties and colorfastness according to the color strength. The yeast concentration did not significantly affect the maximum reduction power. However, the highest yeast concentration was effective in improving the initial dye uptake, and its the reduction retention power was the most excellent. Even on the last reduction day, the effect of increasing the dye uptake by repeat dyeing was observed. And it was confirmed that the reduction bath could be reused for up to 30 days by supplementing yeast at the end of reduction. For all the fabrics used, deeper and darker PB color were obtained by repeat dyeing. As dyeing was repeated, purplish tint got stronger on the Hanji/Silk fabric compared to other fabrics. Regardless of the composition of Hanji fabrics and color strength, washing and dry cleaning fastness were relatively good with above rating 4-5, and fastness to rubbing and light were acceptable with a rating 3-4 ~ 4-5. The eco-friendly natural indigo dyeing process using niram and baker's yeast would offer global marketability and diversity of Hanji product as a sustainable high value-added material.

An intracellular, soluble 1,4-benzoquinone reductase was purified from Baker's Yeast by ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-Sephacel anion exchange chromatography, and Sephacryl S-200 gel filtration chromatography. 1,4-Benzoquinone reductase was achieved 123.8 fold purification from crude homogenate with a yield of 11.1%.

A combined method of autolysis and enzymatic hydrolysis of baker's yeast was developed for the production of yeast extract, which is widely used as a natural food ingredient. From statistical analysis, NaCl and ethanol addition were found to be significantly effective factors in autolysis of yeast. The optimum dosages of salt and ethanol were 3% and 1%, respectively. Heat treatment and the use of cell lytic enzyme were not significantly effecting on the autolysis. Yeast hydrolysate was prepared by autolysis, followed by enzymatic hydrolysis using proteases, nuclease and deaminase. Additionally, the hydrolysate was processed by downstream process including Maillard reaction and debittering. The total dry matter yield and total nitrogen yield for the process were 76% and 59%, respectively. Compared to a process using brewer's yeast, when baker's yeast was used as a raw material, a higher recovery yield was obtained.

In this study, the protective effects of turanose on Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Baker's yeast) were examined during the freeze-drying process to evaluate the feasibility of utilizing turanose as a novel cryoprotectant. The survival rate of the Baker's yeast cells improved substantially with a cryoprotective medium containing turanose in a substitution-dependent manner. In accordance with these survival rates, the yeast cell surfaces became smoother as the turanose content increased. Turanose with skim milk maintained the viability of the Baker's yeast, which improved substantially upon storage at -20℃. Thus, it is thought that turanose will exhibit excellent preservation effects during the distribution of Baker's yeast. Finally, these results suggest that turanose has the potential to be used as a novel cryoprotectant against various microorganisms.

A potent lytic strain was selected by an extensive screening test of microorganisms isolated from soils and sewages on the medium containing baker's yeast as a carbon source. This strain (M-10) was identified to a strain of Humicola sp. by the Genera of Fungi (Clements, 1964). The strain was cultured on the basal medium composed of 2% of baker's yeast, 0.3% of $K_2HPO_4$, 0.01% of $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$, 0.1% of yeast extract in a shaking incubator. Cultural conditions for lytic enzyme production has been studied, and the results obtained were as follows: 1. The Optimal conditions for lytic enzyme production were: initial pH 5.5 to 6.0, temperature $33^{\circ}C$ in shaking culture. 2. Among the various carbon sources, baker's yeast (4%) was the best for lytic enzyme production, increasing the level of activity eight, times higher than when grown on glucose (1%). 3. The most effective concentration of $K_2HPO_4\;and\;MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$ in the basal medium for lytic enzyme production was 0.1% and 0.01% respectively. 4. When the strain was cultured under the optimal conditions, the production of lytic enzyme was maximized in 72 hours.

Dietary values of phytoplanktons, concentrated Chlorella and commercial yeasts were investigated for the resting egg production of the Korean rotifer, B. plioatilis S-type. The hatching rate of the resting egg of the rotifer fed on different diets was also studied. The highest production of the resting egg was 3,760 eggs/20 ml with N. oculata. However, the hatching rate was not significant among 4 phytoplankton species. The highest production of resting eggs among 9 diet groups ($\omega$-yeast, baker's yeast, 2 refrigerated Marine Chlorella, frozen Marine Chlorella, frozen Chlorella ($70\%$) + baker's yeast ($30\%$), frozen Chlorella ($30\%$) + baker's yeast ($70\%$), 2 refrigerated freshwater Chiorella) was 283 eggs/ml in the frozen Chlorella ($30\%$) +baker's yeast ($70\%$) and the refrigerated freshwater Chlorella. The highest number of resting egg from 10,000 rotifers and 1 mg dry wieght diet was 5,566 eggs and 2,131 eggs in the frozen Chlorella ($30\%$) + baker's yeast ($70\%$). However, the highest hatching rate of the resting eggs was $67.4\%$ in $\omega$-yeast. In this study, the results suggest that the baker's yeast with a small amount of frozen Chlorella seems to be good feeding regime for the economical production of resting eggs.

It has been observed that white loght can suppress both cell growth and protein secretion in Baker's yeast. This effect was explored in batch liquid fermentations. Possible applications of this phenomenon are (a) use as a tool for pre-concentrating excreted enzymes prior to subsequent purification and (b) an engineering variable for regulation yeast fermentations.
