Abstract
Summary. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of different concentrations of T-2 toxin and zearalenone on physiological status of 4 brewing yeast strains during wort fermentation. T-2 toxin was used at concentration of 5, 10 i 15 μg∙ml-1 and ZEA of 5 i 50 μg∙ml-1. The viability, biomass growth and acidification power of yeasts were enhanced. It was stated that zearalenone at concentration of 50 μg∙mL-1 influenced the yeast growth and their metabolic activity at first step of fermentation. T-2 toxin had stronger influence at all stages of fermentation causing decrease of viability and acidification power of yeasts. T-2 toxin at concentration of 15 μg∙mL-1 inhibited biomass growth of S.ca. 13 i S.c. 46 strains.
