β-glucan is one of the most important sources of cell wall in yeast strains(Saccharomyces cerevisiae).It is now known thatβ-glucan not only exhibits a broad spectrum of biological activities including immune-modulating,anti-inflammatory,anti-cancer,and anti-aging properties,but also can be used in food production as moisturizer,dietary fibers(DF)[1].Therefore,it is imperative to breed yeast strains with higher biomass production and optimize the fermentation process.Saccharomyces cerevisiae needs carbon sources in biomass accumulation,but glucose is expensive in industrial fermentation[2].The aim of this study is to evaluate the different carbon sources on the growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
