Soy (tofu) whey is a liquid by-product generated from tofu (soybean curd) production and it is often discarded off as a waste liquid by the tofu manufacturers. Previous studies have demonstrated that soy whey can be biotransformed into a soy alcoholic beverage by using Saccharomyces and non-Saccharomyces yeasts even though soy whey is low in yeast assimilable nitrogen (YAN) content. In this study, the initial YAN of the soy whey was estimated to be 46.6 mg N/L and Torulaspora delbrueckii Biodiva was used to ferment soy whey supplemented with either isoleucine only or isoleucine paired with valine, leucine or phenylalanine (each amino acid supplemented at a dosage of 30 mg N/L). Amino acid supplementation was found to enhance sugar utilization by the yeast, which led to higher ethanol production (7.49% v/v in control versus 8.35-8.80% v/v in supplemented samples). Samples supplemented with isoleucine only experienced slower sugar utilization during the fermentation as compared to the paired amino acid samples, but the yeast was still able to utilize the sugar to low levels at the end of the fermentation. The presence of leucine supplementation counteracted the "inhibition" induced by the presence of isoleucine at the first day of the fermentation. Amino acid supplementation slowed down glutamic acid utilization and resulted in higher levels of residual glutamic acid and alanine. Amino acid supplementation increased the corresponding fusel alcohol production and the presence of other amino acids reduced the active amyl alcohol production. Therefore, interactions between amino acids can impact the metabolism of the yeast as well as the flavor modulation during soy whey fermentation.
