Methylene blue is a solid, odorless, dark green powder at room temperature. In water this chemical compound turns into a blue solution. When methylene blue is reacted with yeast cells it inhibits the respiration which stops the cells from using hydrogen ions to release energy.
What else can I help you with?
What is the name of the chemical reaction between yeast and glucose?
The chemical reaction between yeast and glucose is called fermentation, specifically alcoholic fermentation. In this process, yeast breaks down glucose to produce ethanol (alcohol) and carbon dioxide as byproducts.
What is the purpose of yeast plus water in a sugar and yeast experiment?
The purpose of adding yeast and water in a sugar and yeast experiment is to provide the necessary conditions for fermentation to occur. The yeast consumes the sugar as a food source and produces carbon dioxide gas and alcohol as byproducts. This reaction demonstrates the process of anaerobic respiration in living organisms.
What happens if you put coke and yeast together?
When coke and yeast are combined, the yeast will likely start consuming the sugars present in the coke through the process of fermentation. This can result in the production of carbon dioxide gas, alcohol, and possibly other byproducts. However, the presence of preservatives in commercial coke may inhibit the growth and activity of yeast.
Summarize the process of alcoholic fermentation in yeast?
Anaerobic respiration, namely alcoholic fermentation. This process is very similar to glycolysis, except for the fact that alcoholic fermentation replaces one enzyme with two enzymes that change pyruvic acid into ethanol and carbon dioxide.
What gas does yeast produce when heated?
it rises because it becomes activated and multiplies
Yeast reaction with methylene blue?
yes,because yeast can undergo both ae reobic and anaerobic respiration.
Why methylene blue can act on only dead yeast cells but not on live yeast cells?
Methylene blue can act on only dead yeast cells because it is able to penetrate the cell membrane easier when the cell is dead, allowing it to enter and stain the cell. In live yeast cells, the cell membrane is intact and acts as a barrier, preventing methylene blue from entering and staining the cell.
When living yeast cell were place in methylene blue they became blue why did this happen?
When you added methylene blue to the living yeast cell, the methylene blue is actually a dye so you could see the cells, therefore, the yeast cell became blue. It is much the same with hair dye. If you have a bottle of blue hair dye, it will dye your hair blue.

The chemical reaction between yeast and glucose is called fermentation, specifically alcoholic fermentation. In this process, yeast breaks down glucose to produce ethanol (alcohol) and carbon dioxide as byproducts.
Are yeast used in alchol production?
Yes - The enzymes in yeast react with sugar during the brewing process, to produce alcohol. The by-product of the reaction is carbon dioxide.
Can you have an allergic reaction to yeast?
Yes, you most certainly can have an allergic reaction to yeast. Moreover, you may find (like me) that you react to both brewer's yeast and baker's yeast and all products containing yeast.
Methylene blue is used as an indicator in a yeast suspension does it affect the suspension?
http://www-saps.plantsci.cam.ac.UK/records/rec300.htm states that methylene blue indicates reducing and oxidising conditions by reacting to presence or absence of protons but is not involved in the reaction itself. This suggests that it wouldn't affect the suspension.However, I have previously read that methylene blue accepts protons during respiratory reactions, reducing the protons availble for energy release. This suggests that it would affect the suspension.I cannot remember where I read this second statement but I believe the source from which the first statement was taken is more reliable.Answerhttp://www-saps.plantsci.cam.ac.UK/records/rec300.htm states that methylene blue indicates reducing and oxidising conditions by reacting to presence or absence of protons but is not involved in the reaction itself.

How is biotechnology needed to brew beer?
Well one way biotechnology is involved in the brewing process is through yeast. Yeast eats the sugars in the wort and expels carbon dioxide and alcohol!
Food science reaction?
Consider a yeast reaction maybe?
When you mix yeast and hydrogen peroxide does the mixture get warmer?
Yes, the mixture does get warmer! It is called an exothermic chemical reaction, which just means it gives off heat. It is the opposite of an endothermic reaction, which means it absorbs heat. The reaction between hydrogen peroxide(C2H2) and yeast produces oxygen. Hope this answers your question!
Which organism is involved in bread?
Yeast
The rule of yeast in food process?
