Paul Lindner (microbiologist)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Paul Lindner (born April 24, 1861 in Giesmannsdorf near Neisse ; † 1945 in Freiburg im Breisgau ) was a German microbiologist who was involved in the fermentation processes involved in the production of food and beverages - especially alcoholic beverages such as beer , pombe and Pulque  - involved microorganisms and also improved yeast cultivation .

Life

After completing his studies, he worked from 1887 and later became a professor at the Institute for Fermentation Industry and Starch Production at the Agricultural University in Berlin . He later went to Halle, Strasbourg and Freiburg, where he died in 1945.

Lindner was the first to describe the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe and the bacteria Pediococcus acidilactici , Sarcina maxima and Zymomonas mobilis (as Thermobacterium mobile ).

Honor taxon

In 1975 , Wolfgang Henninger and Siegfried Windisch named the yeast Pichia lindneri in honor of Lindner .
