Fluidized bed drying process of two granular prototypes based on Meyerozyma guilliermondii: Effect on cell viability, moisture and operation yield-
Panel de conferencia
Fluidized bed drying is the most common drying operation for
granulated materials on many industries.1 Probiotic yeast such as
Meyerozyma guilliermondii in the diets of ruminants have positive
effects on ruminal microenvironment, such as improving
acetic:propionic ratio and enhance amino acid flow to duodenum. For
the development of new bioproducts, it is important to determine the
drying conditions2,3 that do not affect microorganism cell viability, and
guarantees a lower moisture level and high yield operation.4 Therefore,
the aim of this study was to determine the influence of fluidized bed
drying process parameters on two granular prototypes based on yeast
M. guilliermondii and their storage stability.
