The word yeast is derived from the word "gist" or "gyst" from the old english, which means a bubble, foam or boil. Yeast are single-celled eukaryotic organisms related to fungi that reproduce asexually by budding or division which is used to raise the dough in making bread and for fermenting beer or whiskey.Yeast has long been of commercial importance because they are the chief agents in alcoholic fermentation. Because of this they are essential to the making of beer, wine, and other alcoholic beverages and industrial alcohol. Yeast also plays a large part in the production of industrial enzymes and chemicals, food products, industrial ethanol; in diseases of humans, animals and plants; in food spoilage; and as a model of molecular genetics. Dry yeast, baking yeast, brewers yeast, bread machine yeast, instant yeast, nutritional yeast, smoked yeast, etc. Are the various types of yeast. The most common being known is brewers yeast for fermenting beer, bakers yeast for fermenting bread and yeast in the production of wine. Dry yeast, which is used by many bakers, is one of the most selling varieties of yeast. It is also pharmaceutical industry and in learning various things in biotechnology. Some yeast can also have a vital role in bioremediation. The processed yeast that is used for flavoring or food additives is called as yeast extract. Its a common fact that one yeast cell can produce tones of yeast and all this done in laboratory. When the yeast cells have increased many times, the fermentation stage begins. Candida is symbiotic yeast, which lives in us and on us, as part of our normal collection of microorganisms. These fungi live on all surfaces of our bodies. In a normal digestive tract, 90% of the candida lives in the mouth and colon. There are five commonly identified families. Candida albicans is most often isolated from the skin and vagina. The stomach and small intestine are relatively hostile to candida growth. Candida populations in the colon are constrained by competitive microbes.
Candidiasis is an infection caused by overgrowth of candida. Under certain conditions, they can become so numerous they cause infections, particularly in warm and moist areas such as underarms. Usually your skin effectively blocks yeast, but any breakdown or cuts in the skin may allow this organism to penetrate. Typical affected areas in babies include the mouth and diaper areas. In adults, oral yeast infections become more common with increased age. Adults also can have yeast infections around dentures, under the breast and lower abdomen, nailbeds, and beneath other skin folds. Most of these candidal infections are superficial and clear up easily with treatment. Rarely, the yeast infection may spread throughout the body. In systemic candidal disease, up to 75% of people may die. Even common mouth and vaginal yeast infections can cause critical illness and can be more resistant to normal treatment. Yeast infections that return may be a sign of more serious diseases such as diabetes, leukemia, or aids.
