AUTOLYSIS METHOD OF SAPONIN-BOOSTED YEAST Russian patent published in 2020 - IPC C12N1/06 C12N1/16 B01F17/56 A23J1/18 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to methods of producing yeast products, in particular, to methods of destroying walls of yeast cells for producing taste-and-flavor substances of yeast extracts and product of said method. When saponin is added to the yeast suspension, the level of the yeast cell wall and yeast extract wall components obtained and/or output is increased. Saponin or saponin-containing ingredient is added to yeast cultures during fermentation or into yeast suspension prior to yeast autolysis. Saponin, which is contained in process streams of purified sugar during sucrose production, is readily available and can be introduced into yeast cultures or into yeast suspension or in form of saponin extract, or in form of dried and milled leaves of sugar beet. Destruction of yeast cell walls damages membranes results in sticky consistence of the product.

EFFECT: invention ensures production of food flavoring components.
