A laboratory-prepared hot-water extract of yeast is required
for vigorous growth of San Francisco sourdough bacteria (Lactobacillus

with the goal of determining what is unique about fresh yeast extractives

The integrity and depth of deposition have made the Newell site a unique opportunity to look at activity areas and domestic life of early Euro-American...
Wheat is a staple food crop with many applications. The composition and quantity of major and minor flour components greatly influence functional dough properties, processing quality, and end-use suitability. Seven to 15% of the weight of wheat flour is protein and the gluten proteins comprise 80-85% of that. The gluten...
