Notes:
Seven Voges-Proskauer-positive yeasts were isolated from 290 cans of frozen concentrated orange juice representative of the 1962 season's pack. Taxonomy studies of 4 isolates showed the presence of 2 strains of Saccharomyces. Each of the identified yeast strains grew and produced diacetyl in 12° Brix orange juice and 42° Brix orange concentrate, then subsequently removed it. Reagent-grade diacetyl added to a 42° Brix sucrose solution inoculated with one of the test organisms was reduced 95% after 7 days at room temperature. The metabolic process involved in removing diacetyl from a product by yeast is not known.
