Data underlying the publication: Quantitative physiology and biomass composition of Cyberlindnera jadinii in ethanol-grown cultures, chapter 3 of the PhD thesis

Elimination of greenhouse gas emissions in industrial biotechnology requires replacement of carbohydrates by alternative carbon substrates, produced from CO2and waste streams. Ethanol is already industrially produced from agricultural residues and waste gas and is miscible with water, self-sterilizing and energy-dense. Theyeast C. jadinii can grow on ethanol and has a history in the production of single-cell protein (SCP) for feed and food applications. To address a knowledge gap in quantitative physiology of C. jadinii during growth on ethanol, this study investigates growth kinetics, growth energetics, nutritional requirements, and biomass composition of C. jadinii strains in batch, chemostat and fed-batch cultures.<br>Data used for publication of 10.1186/s13068-024-02585-3, which is essentially Chapter 3 of the PhD thesis titled Exploring physiological diversity of yeasts for ethanol-fueled industrial biotechnology.<br>From the article:Availability of data and materialsAll data generated or analysed during this study are included in this published article and its supplementary information files.
