- a gelable and / or crosslinkable product of low viscosity that is to say sprayable by nozzles so as to create a regular layer around the particle containing the microorganisms and where appropriate the additives. mentioned upper.
- Appropriate viscosities are less than approximately 200 ⁇ 10 ⁇ 3 Pa.s and in particular of the order of 5 to 10 10 ⁇ 3 Pa.s.
- the coating of the particles is preferably carried out by spraying said product, according to the technique called spray-coating, onto the particles which are advantageously pre-dried.
- the particles are suspended in a stream of hot air while the coating solution is vaporized. Passing through the coating cycle several times makes it possible to uniformly cover the surface of the particles.
- the temperature and the flow rate of the air, as well as the flow rate and the spray pressure, are chosen so as to form a homogeneous layer and to avoid the formation of flakes.
- the sprayed products are subjected to hardening or crosslinking in order to ensure the mechanical integrity of the biocatalysts formed and to prevent the release of microorganisms.
- the usual techniques are followed, most generally by physical or chemical means.
- the biocatalyst spherules are immersed in a bath containing the crosslinking agent.
- coated particles are subjected to a drying step. This step is carried out in a fluidized bed.
- the particles are subjected to a preliminary drying until a final humidity of 6 is obtained. at around 4%. These particles are then coated in a stream of cold air in a fluidized bed.
- the process of the invention is particularly suitable for coating microorganisms such as yeasts, bacteria, molds.
- yeasts there will be mentioned the genus Saccharomyces and in particular Saccharomyces cerevisae.

- These biocatalysts can be used directly without a rehydration step.
- new products they are also part of the invention. They are more particularly characterized in that they comprise a core of active microorganisms, optionally added with fillers and / or binders as indicated above, coated with an external layer of gelable and / or crosslinkable compound, and that their dry matter content is more than around 90%.
- biocatalysts are in the form of beads or pellets of approximately 0.5 to 3 mm in diameter.
- Example 1 Manufacture of biocatalyst containing S.cerevisae coated with a crosslinking agent.
- the manufacturing process used includes the following steps:
- the yeast preparation obtained is mixed with the filler products and the binder at a very high concentration, so as to obtain a final mixture of 40 to 50% of dry matter (basic formula).
- the mixing is carried out in. a mixer for 20 to 30 min.
- the extrusion is then carried out using an extruder (ALEXANDER WERK S12 M70R) by passage through a cylinder covered with orifices 1 mm in diameter, the extrusion speed is fixed at 375 rpm.
- the pellets obtained are spheronized on an embossed tray, for example by passing through a KALEVAR model 15 spheronizer for 2 to 20 min at 800 rpm. 3) Pre-drying

- the particles pass several times per minute in the coating cycle, which allows according to the invention a uniform distribution of the coating solution on their surface.
- the coating conditions are as follows:
- the particles coated in a fluidized bed are then soaked in a CaCl 2 solution at 30 g / l.
- Crosslinking is initiated immediately and after 60 minutes of contact, the particles including the cells of microorganisms are rinsed with running water.
- the washed beads are drained, then dried in a fluidized bed type NIRO aeromatic MP1 R up to 40 to 50% of dry matter. Drying is carried out at a programmable air inlet temperature of 30 to 50 ° C and at an air flow rate which corresponds to a pressure drop of 150 mm of water.
- the final humidity does not exceed 3 to 8% after 45 min of drying.
- These beads can be used as such without rehydration and without the need to re-acclimatize the microorganisms.
- biocatalysts make them particularly suitable for the preparation of fermented drinks or the manufacture of yogurts and cheeses.
- the foam is taken in the bottle.
- the yeasts which ensure the second alcoholic fermentation are added to the sweet base wine when the wine is drawn at a concentration of 1-1.5 million cells per milliliter.
- yeasts form a sedimentation deposit.
- the riddling operation which consists in gathering this deposit in the neck of the bottle requires a significant investment in material, place, time and handling.
- biocatalysts of the invention makes it possible to simplify these operations. These are used, stored at room temperature, in a sachet, under vacuum or in a controlled atmosphere.
