Description
False colour scanning electron micrograph of wine yeast cells Saccharomyces cerevisiae (var. ellipsoideus), (tiny balls) on crystals of potassium hydrogen tartrate precipitated out from red wine & growing on the inner surface of the cork. The flavour of a wine depends on the variety of grape used, the soil, the weather etc. & the type of yeast found growing in association with the fruit. The yeast ferments the wine to a good alcohol level. In some winemaking processes the grapes are sterilized & the yeast added, but in the better quality wines the original or wild yeast (i. e. naturally occurring on the fruit) is used. Magnification X940 (6x7cm). Original is bw print b250/279.
