RESUMO

The present study reports the evaluation of pour plate method in drops as an alternative to count the bacteria L. fermentum CCT 1407 in isolated culture, or in mixed culture with Saccharomyces cerevisiae, using the means of cultivation MRS and actidiona as inhibitor of yeast. The analysis of the results revealed that the pour plate method was equivalent to the in depth plate method, which is the methodology most commonly used. This study also presents the behavior of the strain Fleischmann, PE-2 and M-26 when in mixed culture with the bacteria L. fermentum CCT 1407 for six fermentative re cycles accomplished with composed must of 30% of molasses and 70% cane broth, incubated to the temperature of 32 o C. The variance analysis was used to analyze the variables. The obtained results show viability reductions in the treatments accomplished with the strain Fleischmann promoting bacterial multiplication, even so, the treatments with the strain PE-2 presented smaller viability reductions and the incentive to the bacterial multiplication was also smaller. When comparing the behavior of the both strains, M-26 and PE-2, during the fermentation in mixed cultivation with L. fermentum CCT 1407 there was no significant statistical difference, according to the results of the test F, for the following parameters: cellular viability, fermentative output, alcohol content, microbial mass, and glycerol. Significant difference was just detected for the parameters of bacterial contamination and pH of the wine. For the beginning of the first fermentative cycle it was inoculated 1,5.10 6 UFC.mL -1 and at the end of the sixth cycle the contamination was 3,3.10 7 UFC.mL -1 and 6,0.10 7 UFC.mL -1 in the treatments accomplished with the strains M-26 and PE-2, respectively. The increase of bacterial contamination stimulated the glycerol formation and the trehalose content-presented positive relationship with the viability being considered an indicator of the physiologic conditions of the yeast, regardless the appraised yeast strains.
