摘要 |
The invention relates to an activation solution useful for incubation of microbial organisms prior to inoculation into a liquid composition, such as wine, and to a dry activation composition from which the activation solution may be produced. The activation solution preferably comprises microbial organisms capable of fermenting malic acid to lactic acid, but having impaired capability of degrading citric acid. These microbial organisms are useful in methods of inducing malolactic fermentation during wine production.
