摘要
The influence of some extracellular ions on electropermeation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is presented. Yeast suspensions containing either NaCl, KCl, MgCl2, CaCl2, or MgSO4 were treated by application of a condenser discharge pulse. A consistent time constant was maintained for each condenser pulse. The same discharge condenser was used and the concentration of dissolved salts was adjusted so that yeast suspensions of equal electrical conductivity were prepared. The yield of electropermeated cells in the KCl, MgCl2, CaCl2 and MgSO4 suspensions was compared to the yield in the NaCl solution. Under conditions of constant field strength, the yield of electropermeated cells was larger in NaCl than in either of the other salt solutions, especially of CaCl2! (C) 1998 Elsevier Science S.A.
