Baking yeast is one of the most widely used fungi used in the food industry.

There are several works done on these sweeteners supporting and denying positive health conditions in man. Similarly, it is important to study any possible ill effects of these sweeteners on good microbes like Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In the present study it is found that artificial sweetener Aspartame when compared with natural sugars has no significant effect on rate of growth and respiration of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
