Description

The purpose of this experiment was to determine the effects of sucrose, Monk Fruit, Stevia, and Zero Cal sweeteners on yeast growth and fermentation over four weeks. Yeast exposed to sucrose demonstrated the highest cell growth, while fermentation was slightly prominent in the beginning, but then stopped.
