A total of 1752 strains of osmophilic yeasts were isolated from honey and pollens. Forty-three strains of osmophilic yeasts produced polyols, among which 6 strains produced erythritol in good yields. On the other hand, 52 osmophilic yeasts converted sucrose to fructooligosaccharides, among which 8 strains produced both extra and intracellular beta-fructofuranosidase, which converted sucrose to fructooligosaccharides. This investigation concluded that osmophilic yeasts converted sucrose not only to polyols, but also to fructooligosaccharides in good yields.
从蜂蜜和花粉中总共分离出1752株嗜渗酵母。43株嗜渗酵母产生多元醇，其中6株能高产赤藓糖醇。另一方面，52株嗜渗酵母将蔗糖转化为低聚果糖，其中8株同时产生胞外和胞内β-呋喃果糖苷酶，可将蔗糖转化为低聚果糖。该研究得出结论，嗜渗酵母不仅能将蔗糖高产率地转化为多元醇，还能转化为低聚果糖。
