Magnetically responsive yeast cells: Methods of preparation and applications

Abstract

Magnetically modified yeast cells represent an interesting type of biocomposite material, applicable in various areas of bioanalysis, biotechnology and environmental technology. In this review, typical examples of magnetic modifications of yeast cells of the genera Saccharomyces, Kluyveromyces, Rhodotorula and Yarrowia are presented, as well as their possible applications as biocatalysts, active part of biosensors and biosorbents for the separation of organic xenobiotics, heavy metal ions and radionuclides.

Descontaminación de arsénico, cadmio y plomo en agua por biosorción con Saccharomyces cerevisiae

“…Por otro lado, la biomasa inactiva proveniente de la planta Momordica charantia mostró una capacidad de biosorción de 0.88 mg de As 3+ /g de planta, después de 45 min de exposición a un pH de 9.0 (Pandey, Choubey, Verma, Pandey, & Chandrashekhar, 2009). La capacidad de biosorción de As 3+ por S. cerevisiae fue menor que la encontrada en estos estudios; sin embargo, existe la posibilidad de protonar la pared celular de la levadura, para aumentar dicha capacidad (Wu, Wen, Zhou, Dai & Wu, 2012;Safarik et al, 2015).…”

Examining the properties of dry magnetically controlled biosorbent, obtained by the method of mechanical and magnetohydrodynamic agitation

“…Magnetically modified yeast is used in biotechnology as well as biocatalysts and biosorbents for the removal of organic xenobiotics, heavy metals and radionuclides [10]. Paper [11] carries out analysis of the methods for magnetic modification of biosorbents and their possible use for the removal of heavy metals ions and waste water purification from dyes.…”
