Catalytic effect of acid was not proportional to the concentration of HCl. Analysis for soluble protein, free amino-N, and reducing sugars were carried out. Soluble protein was high at 90 deg C, 1N HCl for a period of 24 hours. It had a concentration of 2.802 mg/g yeast. Increase in temperature affected the concentration of free amino-N at 80 deg C, 3N HCl, at 6 hours hydrolysis. It had a concentration of 210 mg/l. Rate of hydrolysis of peptide bonds was used as a rough guide in determining the extent of peptide bond cleavage. Maximum hydrolysis rate of yeast hydrolysate was at processing conditions of 80 deg C using 3N HCl for a period of 12 hours. Yeast autolysate had a maximum rate of hydrolysis at processing condition of 50 deg C at 36 hours. Temperature affected the activity of the endogenous enzymes in the yeast cell. At temperatures 45-55 deg C solubilization of yeast cell components was evident. Processing conditions affected and determined in part the character of the flavor profile of yeast hydrolysate and autolysate
