Currently, antibiotics are used to prevent bacterial infections in ethanol fermentations, which is costly and can lead to the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Our goal is to develop a method for producing an antibacterial yeast strain that can be used in ethanol fermentations without the addition of antibiotics., description french : Souches de levure génétiquement modifiées pour la sécrétion d'agents antibactériens dans les agents de fermentation de biocarburant, expected results english : The purpose of IRAP Contributions to Firms is to support research, development, adoption and/or adaptation of innovative or technology-driven new or improved products, services or processes in Canada up to their commercialization, expected results french : Le PARI, par le biais des Contributions aux entreprises, vise à appuyer la recherche, le développement, l’adaptation et/ou l’adoption au Canada de produits, de services ou de processus novateurs ou axés sur des technologies nouvelles ou améliorées, et ce jusqu’à leur commercialisation, additional information english : This agreement has been amended 1 time(s).
