The first investigations into whey fermentation were carried out during the last war [In the fifties, workers in America] found that the most suitable organism was Saccharomyces fragilis (later renamed Kluyveromyces fragilis), a relative of the well-known baker’s and brewer’s yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The main difference between these two yeasts is that the former ferments lactose, whilst the latter does not. 1, record 3, English, - lactic%20yeast
