    Abstract:
    The effects of wheat-gluten hydrolysates (WGH) and their ultrafiltration fractions on multiple-stress tolerance and ethanol production in yeast during very-high-gravity (VHG) fermentation were examined. The results showed that WGH and WHG-ultrafiltration-fraction supplementations could significantly enhance the growth and viability of yeast and further improve the tolerance of yeast to osmotic stress and ethanol stress. The addition of MW < 1 kDa fractions led to 51.08 and 21.70% enhancements in cell-membrane integrity, 30.74 and 10.43% decreases in intracellular ROS accumulation, and 34.18 and 26.16% increases in mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) in yeast under osmotic stress and ethanol stress, respectively. Moreover, WGH and WHG-ultrafiltration-fraction supplementations also improved the growth and ethanol production of yeast during VHG fermentation, and supplementation with the <1 kDa fraction resulted in a maximum biomass of 16.47 g/L dry cell and an ethanol content of 18.50% (v/v) after VHG fermentation.
