GM yeast

Post by Doughboy » Thu May 01, 2008 11:49 am

Hi all,

Out of interest as i had been thinking this for a couple of days, & being bored at work so im just "googling" anything that comes to mind at mo...

I came across this http://technology.newscientist.com/arti ... fuels.html

made interesting reading....anyone heard of any other developements where yeast can work into higher alcohol volumes than we know of currently??
Obviously the artical is bio-fuel related but there is a homebrew ref at the bottom..
