Hansen has carried out very exhaustive studies upon yeasts and has established, among others, the following important species.^ Saccharomyces cerevisice I. Hansen. An EngUsh top-fermentation yeast, which produces, in beer-wort at room temperature, from 4 to 6 per cent, of alcohol. In the resting condition the plant consists of single cells, which begin to multiply by budding when placed in beer-wort. The young generation con- sists of large spherical or oval cells (Fig. 21). After the termination of the primary fermentation a scum appears on the surface of the fermenting liquid and on this a continuous membrane of yeast-cells is formed. The general appearance of these cells is different from that of the sedimentary forms; much- elongated cells are found here (Fig. 22). In the surface membrane of old cul- tures occur very much elongated cells that are entirely unlike the young sedi- ment cells from which they have developed (Fig. 23). This film formation.
