ANOSIM of the different factors effect on the fermentations based on a dissimilarity matrix calculated by the Euclidian distance of the kinetic parameters.
| Samples | Factor | R | P |
|---|---|---|---|
| All | Nitrogen | 0.402 | 0.001 |
| All | Sugar | 0.036 | 0.15 |
| All | Inoculation time | 0.243 | 0.001 |
| All | Residual sugar | 0.864 | 0.001 |
| All | Succ. fermentation | 0.561 | 0.001 |
Values of statistical significance (P) below 0.05 (bold values) indicate significantly different fermentations considering a certain factor. Successful fermentation was considered when the residual sugar was below 3 g/L.
