ZYMOSE Meaning and Definition

1. Zymose is a noun that refers to a fermentation enzyme or complex of enzymes produced by cells, typically bacteria or yeast, that catalyzes the conversion of biological substances into other compounds through the process of fermentation. This term is derived from the Greek words "zyme" meaning "leaven" and "osis" meaning "process" or "condition".

   In the context of fermentation, zymose plays a crucial role in breaking down complex organic molecules, such as carbohydrates, into simpler substances like alcohol, acids, or gases. These enzymes enable the conversion of sugar into alcohol during the fermentation process, which is widely used in the production of alcoholic beverages like beer, wine, and spirits. Zymose also aids in the breakdown of organic matter during digestion in organisms such as animals and bacteria.

   The term can be applied to a wide range of enzymes, depending on the specific substrate they act upon. Some examples of zymose enzymes include amylase, which breaks down starches into sugars, and pectinase, which hydrolyzes pectin, a component of plant cell walls.

   Overall, zymose refers to the biological catalysts that enable fermentation and the breakdown of complex organic compounds into simpler substances, with important applications in various industries such as food and beverage production, pharmaceuticals, and biofuels.

2. Invertin, a ferment changing a disaccharid, such as cane-sugar, into a monosaccharid, invert-sugar.

Etymology of ZYMOSE

The word "zymose" originated from the Greek word "zymosis", which means fermentation. In Greek, "zymos" means leaven or ferment, and "-osis" is a suffix indicating a process or condition.
