Abstract:
... The accumulation of toxin by killer yeast populations is modelled starting from a mechanistic approach that explains the toxin production in terms of yeast population growth, and takes into account the environmental inactivation of the toxin. A modified Richard's general equation for limited growth is used to define the function that describes the toxin produced in relation to the yeast biomass in ...
