Nystatin-Induced Changes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Nystatin-induced changes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Nystatin (5 to 10 mug/ml) was fungicidal to Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCYC 361. There was an initial rapid uptake of nystatin by the yeast cells at 30 C, the uptake being pH dependent, with a maximum at low pH values (3 to 4). Photomicrographs indicated that nystatin-treated cells became granular. The effect of growth temperature on the subsequent sensitivity of the yeast cells to nystatin was i...

Cadmium-induced oxidative stress in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

The present study was undertaken to determine the effect of cadmium (Cd) on the antioxidant status of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. S. cerevisiae serves as a good eukaryotic model system for the study of the molecular mechanisms of oxidative stress. We investigated the adaptative response of S. cerevisiae exposed to Cd. Yeast cells could tolerate up to 100 microM Cd and an inhibition in t...

Characterization of Encapsulated Berberine in Yeast Cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Berberine was loaded in yeast cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiaeas a novel pharmaceutical carrier to improve the treatment ofmany diseases. The yeast-encapsulated active materialsshowedhigh stability and bioavailability due to the enhanced solubility and sustained releasing. In this study, different characteristics of prepared berberine loaded yeast cells (loading capacity, release kinetic order...
