A study was conducted to elucidate the lactose assimilation by indigenious strains of yeasts in Nepal. A total of 31 strains were isolated from eight murcha (yeast cakes) samples from different localities of Nepal. A higher percentage of isolates (7/31, 22.58%) were found to posses lactose assimilating activity. Among the lactose assimilating isolates 57.14% (4/7) were able to assimilate galactose, a product of ß-galactosidase reaction.DOI: 10.3126/ijls.v1i0.2299 Int J Life Sci 1 : 1-5
