In the period from September 26 to September 30, project collaborator Dr Vesna Milanović held a research workshop on yeast growth kinetics at the Institute for Adriatic Crops. During the workshop, we worked with selected non-Saccharomyces yeasts taken from a collection of autochthonous yeasts at the Institute. Yeasts were isolated from Maraština grapes during the first year of the project, identified and tested for basic oenological characteristics. During the workshop, we carried out analyses related to the determination and monitoring of yeast growth kinetics using several different techniques, such as seeding and counting live yeasts on solid nutrient media, preparation of yeast inoculum for inoculation into sterile Maraština, and including other important steps related to growth and yeast development. Acquired microbiological skills and knowledge are of great use for the methodology of monitoring alcoholic fermentation experiments.
