Microbiological studies of honey / by A. Grant. Lochhead and Doris A. Heron.: A12-2/116-1929E-PDF

"A study of fermented honey obtained from different sources has been made and in all cases yeasts have been found to be the organisms responsible for the spoilage. From the samples investigated four types of yeasts have been isolated and studied, which were found to be specially sugar tolerant types capable of developing in high concentrations of sugar which inhibit the growth of ordinary yeasts ... Factors influencing honey fermenttion are discussed in the light of the data obtained"--Summary, p. 35.
