Uptake of free and complexed silver ions by different strains of Rhodotorula mucilaginosa Acúmulo de íons de prata livres e complexados por diferentes linhagens de Rhodotorula mucilaginosa
Five strains of Rhodotorula mucilaginosa were tested for the ability to accumulate free and complexed silver ions by metabolism-dependent and -independent processes. The ability to take up Ag+ was observed in both live and dead biomass, whereas silver dicyanide [Ag (CN)2-] uptake was strictly glucos...
