Yeast cells are subjected to diverse environmental conditions during the alcoholic fermentation of agave juice, causing different kinetic behaviors. Agave juice was used as culture medium to evaluate the kinetic behavior of Saccharomyces cerevisiae ITD-00185 and Torulaspora delbrueckii ITD-00014a, as pure and mixed cultures, under different inoculum sizes (1×10 5 , 1×10 6 , 1×10 7 and 1×10 8 cells mL -1 ), and combined pH levels (3.5, 4.0 and 4.5) and temperatures (18 °C, 28 °C and 38 °C). Saccharomyces cerevisiae displayed high fermentation capacities at all inoculum concentrations assayed. However, T. delbrueckii required a high inoculum concentration (≥1×10 7 cells mL -1 ) to perform at fermentation levels similar to S. cerevisiae . Low temperatures (18 °C) slowed fermentation, while high temperatures (38 °C) adversely affected the development of the yeast strains, especially T. delbrueckii . The best temperature was 28 °C in all fermentations. The pH level had a strong effect on the performance of the coculture, since the fermentation kinetics suggested a synergistic effect at pH 4.5, while an antagonistic effect was postulated at pH 3.5. In all of the mixed culture cases, a positive effect at 28 °C, especially at pH 4.0 and 4.5, was demonstrated by greater levels of sugar consumption and ethanol production (~20%, p<0.05) compared to fermentations of the S. cerevisiae monoculture. The coculture results allow us to postulate that a complex interaction exists between the two yeasts, which could be synergistic or antagonistic, as the environmental conditions change.
