Covers common microbiological monitoring techniques;
Reviews selected yeasts used in the bioethanol industry;
Examines the role of bacteria and native yeasts in ethanolic fermentation and methods to control their growth.

This book discusses the microbiology of fermentation for the production of bioethanol from sugarcane. Coverage includes how selected yeasts improve ethanol yield and productivity concerning recent advances at genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic levels, how microorganisms (bacteria and yeasts) interact with each other in fermentation vats, and the application of microbiological monitoring methods with safety and precision. Special attention is given to antimicrobial strategies used to decrease contamination. The book is aimed at professionals working in the bioethanol industry, as well as students and researchers studying biological and biotechnological aspects of applied matters such as industrial microbiology and industrial fermentations.

Sandra Regina Ceccato-Antonini, Ph.D., is a full professor in the Department of Agroindustrial Technology and Rural Socio-Economics, Center of Agrarian Sciences, at the Federal University of Sao Carlos (UFSCar). She received her master's and Ph.D. degrees in Biological Sciences at Sao Paulo State University (UNESP), Campus Rio Claro, in 1989 and 1993, respectively. Professor Ceccato-Antonini did her postdoctoral studies at the Luiz de Queiroz College of Agriculture, University of Sao Paulo, and the University of Sheffield in molecular genetics of yeasts. She has experience in the area of microbiology, with an emphasis on industrial microbiology and fermentation. She was a member of the Brazilian National Technical Commission on Biosafety (CTNBio) from 2017 to 2023.
