Factors involved with cadmium absorption by a wild-type strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Fatores envolvidos na absorção de cádmio por uma cepa selvagem de Saccharomyces cerevisiae
At the concentration used in this work (10 ppm), cadmium was efficiently removed from the environment by stationary yeast cells. While exponential phase cells showed low capacity of cadmium absorption, stationary cells removed 97% of the original metal in 24 hours. Total cadmium absorption shown by...
