Item Revisión sistemática de levaduras empleadas en el proceso fermentativo para la obtención de Vodka en el presente milenio a nivel mundial(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2024) Carabalí Banderas, Ana María; Escobar Muñoz, Angie Lizeth; Mellizo Cerón, Jhon Eric (Director)This article analyzes the history, production and cultural relevance of vodka, highlighting its evolution from medicinal concoction to global flagship drink. Emphasis is placed on its importance in Russian and Polish culture, as well as on the diversity of production techniques and varieties available on the real market, highlighting the vital role of yeasts, especially Saccharomyces cerevisiae, in the alcoholic fermentation process. Questions were raised about the use of yeasts in global vodka production by exploring how they contributed to fermentation efficiency and the final beverage profile. Literature search methodologies of scientific articles between 2000 and 2022 were analyzed with specific criteria to obtain relevant information on yeasts used in vodka production. Detailed results were presented on the biochemical process of fermentation, the variables that influence it and specific examples of the fermentative development of vodka using substrates such as potato and yeast strains. Finally, the practical implications of this research for the vodka industry were highlighted, noting how understanding the role of yeast and fermentation can improve quality and production efficiency, with an emphasis on the area of competitiveness in the global spirits market
