Abstract
While yeast flocculation is a continuing source of
research, no international method has been accepted to
monitor the progress of cell flocculation. This
presentation will report on previous, existing, and
potential methods for yeast flocculation assay. We will
review the Helm and Burns methods and derivatives,
adherence and kinetic methods, and absorbance techniques.
Standard methods will also be reviewed. In addition,
measures of cell wall hydrophobicity and zymolectin
'density' will be discussed. Finally, research with the
TRAC method of monitoring flocculation gene expression
will be presented.
