ELIMINATION OF FLATULENT SUGARS FROM SOY

摘要

A process for eliminating the flatulent sugars present in soya which comprises preparing an aqueous soya suspension containing from 5 to 45% by weight of dry matter, inoculating the suspension thus prepared with at least one strain of Saccharomyces uvarum which has reached the state of growth on a medium containing at least one sugar having at least one alpha -D-galactopyranosyl bond and fermenting the suspension under anaerobic conditions for at least 8 hours at a temperature of from 15 DEG to 50 DEG C.
