ABSTRACT
IMPORTANCE The use of S. cerevisiae and S. uvarum yeast starter cultures is a common practice in the alcoholic beverage fermentation industry. As yeast strains from different or the same species have variable fermentation properties, rapid and reliable typing of yeast strains plays an important role in the final quality of the product. In this study, Raman spectroscopy combined with CNN achieved accurate identification of S. cerevisiae and S. uvarum isolates at both the species and strain levels in a rapid, non-destructive, and easy-to-operate manner. This approach can be utilized to test the identity of commercialized dry yeast products and to monitor the diversity of yeast strains during fermentation. It provides great benefits as a high-throughput screening method for agri-food and the alcoholic beverage fermentation industry. This proposed method has the potential to be a powerful tool to discriminate S. cerevisiae and S. uvarum strains in taxonomic, ecological studies and fermentation applications.
